Everything you need to know after we asked readers whether they think Manchester United should keep Lisandro Martinez...

Martinez has endured a tough time with injuries at United. He made just 18 Premier League appearances last season due to a mixture of injury problems and suspension.

However, the 28-year-old appeared to be rediscovering his form at the World Cup with Argentina.

He established himself as one of Lionel Scaloni's preferred centre-backs and started the World Cup final defeat to Spain. Just before half-time in that game, Martinez was forced off with an injury.

Following that blow, MEN Sport posed the question to readers: Should Manchester United keep Lisandro Martinez after his latest injury?

5,024 supporters responded, with 58 per cent voting 'No - United can't afford to keep a player who is injured so often'.

37 per cent disagreed. They voted 'Yes, even though he's unreliable we're so much better when he's available'. Only five per cent were unsure.

Martinez is currently on his post-World Cup break and United are yet to discover the extent of his injury.

But there is optimism that Martinez's injury will not keep him out for a significant period of time. Read the full story here.
