He ain't a winger. He is a wide striker or a striker who could play in a two. Forcing him to play as a winger will do no good to him.
He’s not a striker at all - he’s not got anywhere near enough to his game. Everyone wants to be a ‘wide striker’ or a no 10, because that’s where the glory is, and is perceived that you don’t have to do as much defensive work.
Martial needs to pull his finger out, and play where he is put. He had a great opportunity yesterday, and he blew it. I don’t care about players missing chances, or getting crosses wrong or trying things that don’t come off. But a bit of effort and determination in the minimum requirement for a footballer, and this is the reason we get beaten by teams like Brighton because they don’t have completed passengers.
Doubt we will see him in the team for a while.
