Patrice Evra is a seasoned veteran who has seen it all during his playing career. The Frenchman has now issued a warning to Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez.

Martinez arrived at the club in the summer from Ajax for a fee of €57 million. Initially, there were doubts about the 5' 9" defender's suitability in the Premier League. While he has proved his critics wrong, Evra reckons the Argentine FIFA World Cup winner could be in for a tough test once teams adapt to his style.

He told Betfair (via Metro):

"Lisandro Martinez has impressed me this season, At the beginning of the season when he signed everyone was talking about his height, but he’s a pitbull. That’s what United fans want to see. The South American players have that passion; they have hunger to give everything; they play with their heart. He wants to bleed for the club, and you can see now partnering him with any player, he will do the job, and he will cover."

Evra added:

"But next year people will know about Martinez; coaches will study him, and they will know his weakness. He’s really aggressive, so maybe people will try to get him sent off. I remember Gabriel Obertan played a game for us; he came on; we won, and he said, 'Patrice wow, it’s so easy to play with you guys, the Premier League is so easy.'"

Evra concluded:

"For some players, it is easy; it wasn’t for me, but consistency is key. Even if Lisandro plays well for the rest of this season, next year it will be tough for him, trust me."

Martinez has made 21 appearances across competitions for United this season.
