I like how lots of posters prefer to jump to the conclusion that he's gone before any other circumstances even start getting considered.
I suppose the last time a 'story' like this surfaced, it was van Nistelrooy in 2006 and we all know how that ended.

Well even if he started today, I think it's obvious that he'll likely leave this summer. Him playing just one of the 3 games that Lukaku was out for? Definite sign imo. Dont need to read into that one too much.

Yeah. I mean, I think he's gone in the summer, and I disagree with that decision, but we have no idea why he's not in the squad today. Say what you want about Mourinho but he's not going to say that Martial will start and then just completely drop him without a good reason.

Good sample to go by there, 1 case.

Its correlation not causation. He's probably more likely gone than not but today's events probably have little to do with the situation.

And yet it was him missing today that sparked a lot of posts again saying he's gone.

More just posts saying "goodbye" since we'll never see him in a United shirt again when today he was supposed to play. Dont think many people actually believe hes going to stay this summer? From his perspective, there isnt a single reason why he should. So I'd be shocked if we see him again for the club.
 
I really do not want to lose the lad. Still very young, still scoring a good amount of goals. I think he needs some kind of boost and can become world class. Say whatever you want, he's got one of the best close control in the world football - just remember what he did against Real Madrid in USA. Hope he's just injured. I believe Mourinho will find a solution next season.
 
I've seen somewhere his girlfriend is in labour, so he's rather with her.

*edit I see you guys already know that haha. I hope everything is allright with the baby, it's possible to be an earlybird
 
I don't understand why he'd show up at OT in the first place only for it to be decided he's injured. also, why would he leave the stadium all together rather than watch from the stands? Not buying it.

MUTV said he's injured.

Yeah, if he was injured in training he either wouldn't have shown up for the match or just stayed in stands for final home game.

Conspiracy!
 
Couldn't care less if he left , let's see if he could be world class with other manager or not. We can find and buy his replacement.
 
get rid. Not got the mentality for a big club.


Yeah lets get rid...

Tell me a player who could do well in that LW role Jose plays? he's expected to not only attack but double up in defence, we may as well play 2 fecking left backs its wank tactics that's ruining these players.

Martial will go on and be a top player, he'd probably do well to get out tbh hes wasted here under Jose.
 
Martial's cousin apparently tweeted that he genuinely has a leg injury so yeah I'm probably wrong.

Players are just soft these days, choose your era and there were never as many injuries as they are today
 


He has a leg injury according to a Bein France reporter, but hey why should we believe him or MUTV when we make a conspiracy theory of our own :drool:

Well he wasn't in the trainings pics yesterday.
 
I'm not up on the private lives of footballers, but I thought Martial already had a kid? So he's having another kid with a different women? 22 years old and already 2 kids by two different women? SAF wouldn't have had that.

There were lots saying "he's gone" following today's news, and one saying something along the lines of "Let him go if he wants to sulk". This flurry wouldn't have happened without today's news which is proof that posters like to get carried away on building their own causations before any form of facts properly come out.

As for the reason why he should stay, maybe him not being guaranteed playing time at other top clubs is a good reason?
Perhaps Juvenuts but for me this doesn't speak volumes. He should really stay on and fight since he is 22 years old and seemingly well settled in England. He can learn lots from the likes of Sanchez and develop a mentality that I don't think he'd be able to foster at other top clubs. Turan, Dennis Suarez and Andre Gomes were all very good talents who have struggled and arguably regressed since moving to Barcelona. Douglas Costa wasn't given much value at Bayern so he was shipped off (same for renato Sanchez although he's also pretty shit so we can ignore him).

If he wants to play more and move to a smaller club then it makes complete sense. If he thinks hel be a starting LW for any of the elite clubs in Europe I think he needs a reality check.

Or clubs are protecting multi million pound assets .look at sport in general, players are more careful about playing through injuries .
 
Well congrats to whoever will get him this summer. He'll be the next soon to be world class player to leave Mourinho after KDB/Salah/etc.
