The exchange between the pair occurred shortly after Martinez sustained an ACL injury that he has just returned from.<\/p>\n
Now, the Daily Mail<\/a> reveal that there were plans for Martinez and Scholes to talk in an effort to make peace, but the conversation never happened.<\/p>\n Fresh details<\/p>\n According to the newspaper, \u201cLast season United defender Lisandro Martinez took TV criticism from Scholes so personally that a clear-the-air meeting between the two was arranged. For reasons unknown, it never took place and perhaps it\u2019s just as well.\u201d<\/p>\n A source at broadcaster TNT told the Daily Mail, \u201cScholesy just says what he thinks.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIf he doesn\u2019t like you or rate you, he will just tell you. He\u2019s one of the best blokes in the world. But he just can\u2019t hide what he feels.\u201d<\/p>\n However, it\u2019s understood that the United dressing room don\u2019t view it this way and feel that Scholes, alongside the likes of Gary Neville and Roy Keane, have often been unfair to them.<\/p>\n An agent close to the first team remarked, \u201cThe players feel the weight of what these guys say very deeply. They see all the clips and it really p****s them off.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cTheir view is that these guys know what it\u2019s like to feel the pressure of being a United player so they want some level of understanding from them but feel they don\u2019t get it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSome players think the Class of \u201992 actually don\u2019t want them to succeed so their own legacy can be protected. So, yeah, the relationship has been bad. The lads certainly don\u2019t want to be interviewed by them for TV. It\u2019s gone way beyond that.\u201d<\/p>\n United return to action on Monday when they go away to Wolverhampton Wanderers. The game kicks off at 8pm.<\/p>\n Feature image Carl Recine via Getty Images<\/p>\n The Peoples Person has been one of the world\u2019s leading Man United news sites for over a decade.
