Peter Schmeichel Labels Lisandro Martinez 'Absolute Disgrace' After Chelsea Defeat
English Premier League · 19:25:46 - Sunday, 1 November 2026

Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel has described defender Lisandro Martinez as an "absolute disgrace" and said he is not suitable for the club following their defeat to Chelsea in the Premier League.

The former goalkeeper made the comments on October 31, 2026, after United's loss to their London rivals. Schmeichel, who won five Premier League titles with United, questioned whether the Argentine centre-back meets the standards required at Old Trafford.

The criticism highlights the scrutiny facing the team after a disappointing result against Chelsea.
