Former Belgian national team member Radja Nainggolan spoke out about the former "Red Devils" coach Roberto Martínez.

Not only known on the field but also off it, the midfielder said: "Roberto Martínez is a bad coach. A good coach is one who gives his team an idea.

With Martínez, Belgium never knew how to act. We never had a distinct style of play. We had no set plays, no incursions into the penalty area.

If Belgium had had another coach, I believe Belgium would have won trophies," he criticized the Spaniard in an interview with "nieuwsblad."
