Jason Wilcox needs to learn a lesson from Lisandro Martinez’s Manchester United outburst

Steven Railston argues that Manchester United technical director Jason Wilcox must publicly address the club's transfer decisions following public criticism from Lisandro Martinez. After a loss to Atletico Madrid, Martinez remarked that he expected more from Wilcox regarding squad strengthening, specifically targeting unaddressed deficiencies at left-back and striker.

Railston contends that Wilcox only communicated publicly when United were on a winning run, leaving managers like Michael Carrick to shoulder questions regarding recruitment and transfer spending. According to the writer, sporting directors in British football should take responsibility and provide clear explanations to supporters during difficult periods.
