I cannot believe he would refuse to warm up. There must be a reasonable explanation.
 
Mourinho has manoeuvered himself in a great position. Martial comes on in the second half and scores; woah look at his great mind games paying off. Told you disbelievers!
Martial plays crap; not Mourinho's psycho mindgames' fault. He simply does not have the mentality and that was why he benched him in the first place. Our Ghosé is da man.

It's irritating. People see what they want to see

Great post, sums it up perfectly.
 
I really doubt he refused to warm up. That tweet didn't even say that. It just said he wasn't warming up.
 
Get him on already!

EDIT: Sign 3 subs made..
 
Watever Joses doing needs to stop.

Fine not starting him but playing Rooney ahead of him, and Rashford who isnt a winger is just pure stubbornness.
 
Magnificent performance from Rashford, got the full 90 minutes which Martial can only dream of playing like that. Martial stands no chance competing with these standards.
 
He's been in better form than all of our attackers. A must win game. Doesn't get a single minute.

Fecking José...
 
Mourinho must say what his issue with Martial is because as it looks this is not right.
 
I would be pissed if i were Martial.

Then we wonder why players stop playing for Jose
 
Obviously something going on behind the scenes that he's being punished for. Jose has already criticized his agent.
 
An example of when posters know better than a manager.

This isn't hindsight. You drop Martial after a Man of the Match performance for a young centre forward whose struggled all season when starting games. Makes zero sense.
 
Game was crying out for Martial. Jose's mind games cost us another 2 points
 
Jose has got this one wrong, deserved to start tonight after the weekend. For whatever reason martial isn't treated the same as other players in the squad, he has been mismanaged and it will be one of reasons we wont make top 4.
 
Most talented young player we've had in years and Jose is driving him out of the club. Nauseating.
 
A 54 year old holding a grudge over a 20 year old and letting that alter his best team selection is as petty as it gets but that's what you get with Mourinho.
 
Terrible man management. Put pressure on him for the Wigan game, watch him play well then leave him out the next game. Really poor.
 
Not to worry lads. At this rate Mourinho will be at the very least fecked off too this summer.
 
I really doubt he refused to warm up. That tweet didn't even say that. It just said he wasn't warming up.

I agree with this one. How do they know if he refused to warm-up? Just because he was one of the player who is not warming up? Romero refused to warm up as well?? Smalling refused to warm up in first half??
Jose probably never had a plan to play him from the very beginning. Let's see if he says something in interview or press conference.
 
At this rate, this thread is going to fecking explode in the summer
 
We're worse than Liverpool fans about this. The players who aren't playing is the answer to everything.
Mikhi was the game changer for a while, that purple patch has run its course so now Martial is the answer.
 
Ultimately it will be Mourinho's stubbornness which will cost us. This is getting out of hand and someone must step in to get Mourinho to see sense.
 
Ridiculous that he didn't play after the last game where he started off poorly but finished strongly as one of our better players with 2 assists to boot. Not sure what else he has to do to get a starting place, unless something else is going on behind the scenes that is.

Truly pathetic.

Stupid directors we have, leaving the manager who will have us finishing 6th or lower, to treat the boy like this. The funny thing is that by 'punishing' Martial, he's punishing the team and heaping pressure on himself. He's a better option than Rash at the moment and certainly better than Rooney, and Mourinho ignores him. Bloody infuriating.
 
No Martial no party AGAIN. I would be pushing for a move if I was him. Complete joke he gets left out repeatedly.

Exactly right! What the hell is Ed doing?!

He had the same grudge over Mhiki until he came crawling. Martial will have to do the same or leave sadly.
 
Meyler was there for the taking. Martial would have made bits of him. Beyond stupid
