Martinez blasts Man United hierarchy for lack of support

Lisandro Martinez launched an unprecedented public attack on Manchester United's director of football Jason Wilcox and the club's hierarchy, accusing them of failing to support head coach Michael Carrick during the summer transfer window. The outburst followed Tuesday's 2-0 Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid, extending United's winless run to five matches. Pablo Barrios scored after 50 seconds, with substitute Ademola Lookman adding a second goal after Leny Yoro's red card. Martinez told Prime Video the performance reflected the club's current state, demanding more investment and squad depth to compete at elite level, while acknowledging players must also improve.
