Keane Says Man Utd Are in Chaos After Martinez Outburst
Premier League·October 16, 2026
Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has delivered a blunt verdict on his old club, saying Lisandro Martinez's outburst is evidence of chaos at Old Trafford. Keane, now one of the most outspoken pundits in British football, did not soften his language when asked about the episode.
Martinez is a combative defender who joined United from Ajax in 2022 and was part of Argentina's World Cup-winning squad that same year. His fiery style has made him a favourite with many supporters, but it has also meant his temperament is often discussed. Keane's point is that the latest flare-up goes beyond one player and says something about the wider dressing room.
Keane's comments carry weight with fans because of his own record as a player and captain, and he has a long history of judging United's leadership and standards harshly. Even so, his view is an opinion from a former player rather than a statement from the club, and it is not clear from the available reports how United will respond.
Supporters and observers will now be watching whether the club addresses the situation publicly or lets it fade. Until more details emerge, Keane's assessment stands as the main talking point.
