Manchester United's defender Lisandro Martínez has lambasted the club's management for not bolstering the squad sufficiently ahead of their 2-0 loss to Atlético Madrid in the Champions League. The Argentina international defended manager Michael Carrick, but argued that the club's investments should also be under scrutiny. Martínez specifically called out director of football Jason Wilcox to invest more in the squad.
"Really poor," Martínez said after the match in Madrid. He added that while players must also improve, building a strong squad is crucial to competing in demanding European fixtures. Martínez questioned the focus on managerial changes and emphasized the need to examine other areas of the club's management. United spent approximately £150m on new signings during the summer, less than some Premier League rivals.
