In the summer transfer window, Manchester United's new center back, Lixindo Martinez, was once questioned for his small size, which made him difficult to adapt to the fierce confrontation of the English Premier League. However, the Argentinean international, who is only 1.75 meters tall, broke the prejudice with practical actions and showed his extraordinary strength in the center back position, and was even honored as United's best player in August.

United started the season with two consecutive defeats, with Lisindo Martinez struggling in games due to the opposing team's high ball tactics, especially in the one against Binford, where he was even substituted at half-time.

While the world was worried about the future of Ricciardo Martinez, he not only got his debut in the crucial match against Liverpool, but also played a classic game. His 82% pass success rate, 41 touches, 5 long passes, 7 clearances and a crucial block, as well as a blocked shot by teammate Bono Fernandes, was the key to his team's victory.

After that, in the match against Southampton, Ricciardo Martinez was also outstanding, helping his team to shut out the opponent and get a 1-0 victory. As a result, he was honored as United's Player of the Month for August.
