(Reuters) - Manchester United's approach for two leading Everton players is a waste of time, the Merseyside club's manager Roberto Martinez said on Tuesday.

The Spaniard's comments came the day after the club's director of communications Alan Myers branded the bids for Belgium midfielder Marouane Fellaini and England defender Leighton Baines as "derisory and insulting".
