Pundits discussing Manchester United "can talk on the television" but "no-one says anything" to your face, according to defender Lisandro Martinez. Before the derby, Martinez was on the receiving end of jibes from former Red Devils midfielders Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes. Asked about Scholes' comment, Martinez said: "Honestly, he can say whatever he wants. I told him already, if he wants to say something to me, he can come to wherever he wants. Scholes shared some of Martinez's comments on an Instagram story on Sunday, and said: "Someone's had a good game, was really happy for you."
