Thank you guys. *Bows*
Dream debut, delighted for all three that got on the scoresheet. Perfect.
Many will say that it's just one goal, and there's a long road ahead, but just look at Shaw. Hardly much older and doing it week in week out. If you have the talent, it doesn't matter.
Yep.
All this talk of Blind is going to have a nightmare against Benteke.
Herrera deserves a start
Martial silencing all his doubters
Yeah the there is also Rooney, Fabregas and Ronaldo who have been doing it since they were 16/17. If his performances warrant it then play him, if you are good enough your certainly old enough.
Anthony Martial is the 1st Man Utd player since 1936 to score on his debut in a league fixture vs Liverpool.
Not bad.
Loved it when he was waiting on the sideline for Mata to exit the pitch and he was stood there looking up at each stand, seemingly soaking in the atmosphere and the occasion.
I also enjoyed the way he stood up Lovren when he tried to bully him and just held him off with his strength.
The goal will obviously be the focus, and quite right too, but there was other encouraging stuff as well.

McDonnell. Absolutely garbage journalism which is pretty much the norm these days.
Anyway, what a goal and what a moment.
That was very encouraging. Wasn't phased by it at all.
I gave him 10/10, silly I know but that little bit of footwork and finish got me out of my seat and to do it in such a big game on your debut at 19 after Liverpool had just pulled a goal back showed great composure, really pleased for him after the last couple of weeks of utter bullshit from the dregs of the media.
He has everything, he is powerful, he has pace and mentally strong.
Definitely, LvG noted it in his post-match interview as well, saying he showed him he can play in the PL.
When a striker is played a pass down the channels and manages to shape up against the defender and get him to back off and essentially go on the backfoot, then that's a great sign for me. It shows that the player has pace and skill, and it's something that we have lacked in our strikers for a long time. The kind of thing you see very often from Aguero, Suarez, Benzema, Torres (of old) etc. How he fairs will depend on his application, but we can use the natural ability here and now and I love seeing it.
He looks like the kid from Everybody Hates Chris
It's time to relax about this though. I'm extremely happy for the kid and we've seen glimpses of his potential, but he also received an opportunity in this game, some space to take his man on and show off his great strengths on the ball and he took it. Kudos to him for having the balls to pull it off, but I think we'll still have to be patient with the kid and let him develop.
It took a season of refinement at United for him to be as great as he is this year. Shaw has worked his ass off to get to the consistent level he's at now.
He's gone from a half-dead stadium to 75,000+. That, alone, before anything else is even considered is an insane amount of upheaval for a 19yr old. You would think it'll take him some time to settle and truly feel at home, but it really didn't look like it whilst he was out there. He internalises well because he looks un-phased even if he's bricking it inside.
It struck me that he doesn't actually play like a centre forward as he drifted extremely wide on both sides of the pitch. Is that normal for him, because if it is, if he's to lead the line, you need a player behind him that can occupy his position when he goes walkabout.
It seems custom-made for Rooney to assume the #10 role that might temporarily have him right up top when Martial's off down a flank.
He also looks like he has the legs and the running to make whoever plays at #10 behind him have a much easier ride in terms of their own movement.
It will be good to see him get more game time. He looks a real talent.
I'm tempted to buy his jersey due to the euphoria but I've learned my lesson after buying falcao and di Maria jersey last season.
Loved the bit, where he wasn't bothered by Lovren.
Went mental when scored that goal! 
It doesn't change the fact that he is young and everything is very new for him and he has to adapt, won't expect him to do that every game from now on or anything like that, he will frustrate us fans alot and that is expected.

He doesn't write headlines and it's a study that says we overpaid not the journalist.
Buy Silva and Aguero jerseys and send it to kids in Africa.
Ive been struggling for a while to have a favourite player in our new look squad .... and have decided today it shall be Martial. Might even buy his shirt to use when I play for my Sunday team!
I don't think many people are expecting of him to replicate such heights in every single game at such a young age, but it's fecking exciting having such a player in our team.
Watching a young player with amazing potential stun the world and make a name for himself at Manchester United - that's why we all became fans in the first place. It's one of the most exciting things in football. Even though we can't expect him to replicate such heights in every single game due to his tender age, I can't fecking wait to watch him again on Tuesday!
There will be ups and downs, but even after Di Maria's bright start last season, I wasn't really as excited to watch him play as I am with Martial. Leaving the transfer fee aside, there's always much more excitement with the younger players that are still developing, but can make an immediate impact in the first team as well. Waching a young player taking the world by storm at Manchester United just like Ronaldo did - that's what it's all about IMO. Hopefully Martial will become a great player for us, the potential is there for all to see.

Very true. Also he was a little lucky how the ball fell when dribbling but he did tuck it away well
cant stop watching it.
Fans singing "What a waste of money!" after he scored. Just an amazing goal!
Just an amazing goal!I hope he starts the next match. I think we should just keep playing Martial and Depay even if they have dodgy performances. It's exciting watching young talented players improve and I'd rather have it over Rooney and Young.
was on the road and missed the 2nd half. wow.........what a goal from martial. walked in there and scored like there was no one there. brilliant!
The moment he decided Skrtel will be his victim
lol
I keep watching the goal, man, it's fecking phenomenal. He made Skrtel his bitch The pace, the timing, the dribbling, the composure. It's just perfect. The guy has nerves of steel!
I also don't buy the ''slightly lucky'' comments just because Skrtel had the slightest of touches on the ball when Martial was humiliating him. If we go by that logic, there's luck in every single goal scored...ever.

How can you say that when young pretty much single handedly changed how the game played out?
He came on and changed the game in our favour
Memphis was complete trash today he did nothing and lost the ball more times than I could count, he should be dropped and young deserves his place back in the team. I would love to keep martial in the team though.
I can't see us winning the title this year. May as well develop Depay and Martial for next season. Young's been here for 4/5 years so it's not surprising that he's better than Depay right now but I would be really disappointed if Depay doesn't end up far surpassing him in talent.
Absolutely stoked he's got a goal on debut, sounds like it was a real romper as well. I am glad he wasn't completely thrown in the deep end and that has to be good for the confidence of him and the players.
