Good to see a United striker with pace, mobility, with a decent finish. He also has a level of arrogance about him.
I'm pretty sure he meant it. Even I could do that 10 years ago.
Balls, he looked down and was surprised/happy. End finish was main thing for me though. Class.
A great debut goal! A wonderful dribble and finish at an important time, in a big game against a bitter rival. I love that he had the confidence to pick the ball up and just drive at the heart of the Liverpool defence. It'll definitely be a big boost for the boy. We shouldn't expect too much too soon off the back of one goal, but you can see why the club rated him so highly. He just may play a bigger role this season than most of us expected. I look forward to watching him develop.
Great goal, had the confidence to dribble and go for goal which is like Depay. Really hope he starts soon.
I can't be fecked reading through 7 pages or so, so I just wanna say: 
.
Great finish. Made me laugh a bit at the Welbeck comparisons I saw because despite me being a Welbeck fan, that finish was ice-cold.

Solo goal against Liverpool on your debut? 36 million? Bargain.
OH MY feckING HOLY GOD!!!
(Literally just been able to watch the game having avoided the score all day)

I thought was his little trick to get past Skrtel.
I have to say, thats probably the most I've celebrated a goal in the post Fergie era.
THAT was everything Manchester United should be about. And I for one, have missed that kind of genius on the pitch.
I also loved the way he celebrated. He has that air of arrogance, he knows how good he is.

With Rooney out injured for the PSV match, can Martial play considering he played in the CL qualifiers against Valencia?
Yeah, it's grand. Resets after qualifiers.
It's been long since I have seen a United striker do that. What a way to make a debut. Too early to say anything but I hope he keeps banging us these goals. Great bit of confidence booster for the lad!
He just looks so calm and composed.
Everything about the goal was great. When he gets the ball, he positions himself perfectly to take on Skrtel. Then he attacks with Skrtel with confidence. Bamboozles him and then the finish to match. The finish was truly Henry-like.
Hopefully he continues to bang them in.

Anyone have the reverse camera angle for the goal? I'd love to see it.
In a way it tells you how fecking average Liverpool's defense has become, for Martial to come and take the piss like that in his first match.
I think ESPN might have it here

If it doesn't load right away, refresh the page.
He's killed the Welbeck comparisons in one fell swoop. That finish was an ice cold strikers finish.
Aye. Very encouraging that the occasion didn't faze him at all.
Nice, thank you. There's never been a goal that I thought I need more camera angles like this one.
Cheers!
I actually can't stop watching the clip
Haven't felt like that in a long time. Hopefully he continues like that and I don't mean just by scoring goals, I mean getting supporters excited and taking men on and beating them with pace and skill.
United need players like that. The club deserves players like that

Great debut - showing strength, pace and skill today. I hope he keeps it up!
Great start from him, he can still become both a boom or a bust but no matter what he has earned himself a place in our hearts with a great goal against Liverpool. To be honest it is impressive to come on at Old Trafford, against our biggest rival and play/behave the way he did at 19 years old
If he becomes a star everyone will say that this is where it started.

So, has the Mirror apologised for the "what a waste of money" headline?
I like everything about his game... pace, strength, dribbling, technique, finishing, composure, confidence and coolness.
Right, because Skrtel truly is one of the worst defenders in the Premier League...
Looking forward for him to meet a Terry on decline!
That defending was one of the worst of the season definitely. It doesn't mean what Martial did wasn't fantastic. The pb criticizing what Skrtl did is always gonna be seen as underrating what Martial which isn't the case at all. Martial is that kinda dribbler.
He already has more PL goals than Rooney (this season)
Anyway, the last 2 times I got so excited about a player on debut was Ronaldo and Kiko Macheda (AVL). Hoping this is in the territory of the first

I hope for the former too.
Just saw his goal, woah what a tasty piece of dribbling and he absolutely torched Skertel. Martin Tyler above ! eeEYEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
! eeEYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSo so glad for the lad! What a debut,what a way to introduce yourself!
Will be interesting to see how he and Memphis work together.
They do like to occupy similar space.

He looked a different class to Memphis I felt. We need to see more to judge properly, but he's done it at Monaco already, played at the highest level and he's only 19. Looks like he has a fantastic attitude too - level headed. I like the future up front with him.
LVG is the ideal manager for him in this situation. He'll ease him into things. He probably won't start any game outside the League cup for a while.
He should start against PSV midweek.
