Scholes is never afraid to speak his mind about United players. And recently said he would include Martinez in eight players the club should sell. As well as Marcus Rashford, Matthijs de Ligt, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Casemiro, Antony and Joshua Zirkzee.
On the latest episode of The Overlap Fan Debate, the United legend was harshly critical of the Argentine, suggesting he is not good enough to win the league even if he is fit.
“He is fit, but he is not good enough to win the Premier League,” Scholes said on the show. Martinez, however, took to social media to hit back.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday evening, Martinez wrote: “This bloke is talking too much… Send him to Argentina. “He’s not going to make it,”
Scholes said last month, voicing doubts over Martinez’s ability, revealing he would be willing to sell the World Cup winner as part of a United rebuild.
