He needs to work hard or feck off. No more excuses for him.

Who would want to buy him at 200 grand a week and an attitude problem? Genuine question. Think Chelsea were reported to be interested last summer but that could have been paper talk.
The articles that are saying Solskjaer had a go at him over his effort also say he's been playing with a bad back recently which would explain his dip in form and why he was wasn't warming up like the other players. It's been noticeable under Solskjaer that he likes to rush players back from injury and even play them while they are carrying injuries (and him doing this has cost United a few times) so I could see that causing contention between the two.
Good one.Martial running
Want him gone more than any other player. Such a fair weather type player that turns up when he wants to. To me he's just a French Zaha.....
Zaha actually works.Want him gone more than any other player. Such a fair weather type player that turns up when he wants to. To me he's just a French Zaha.....

What I dont understand is that in that video he is clearly just standing there half arsed. However it looks like there are two coaches in red jackets right next to him. Surely someone from the coaching staff needs to get a grip here with these players.Wrong move by Ole. He should have hugged him.
Brave from you to say all this.I will never forget when week in, week out, people bashed Jose because of this guy. Even when his agent was talking rubbish, the blame was on Jose. When he failed to inform his manager about staying back for his baby/girlfriend and his manager dared to be upset with him, the manager was bashed left, right and center.
The same for Pogba. I still ask people today, what exactly did Jose do to Pogba? I still don't get it. The main issue was his statement after the World Cup when he asked him to focus on playing for United like he did for France: disciplined, no showboating etc. All hell broke loose after.
I am old school. It will take me a while to get used to some of today's soft, touch me not super star footballers.
Martial's talent is not in doubt. But if he wants to reach the heights he is well capable of reaching, he will need to sort out his attitude, focus and deliver CONSISTENTLY. And if as a club we want to get back to the top, we need to fully back and empower our manager. It has to be clear who is boss.

Ironically, they can't be arsed anymore.He's fecking lazy. Simple as. I remember saying this earlier and being hounded down by the infamous Martial FC.
Yes, about six months ago.Has he signed a new contract yet?
Look at the two posted videos of the warm up before the game and there's your answer.Martial scored two vs Chelsea in the past league game should of started instead of Rash boy.

Martial covers an average distance of 8.45km per game, which means his attacking team-mates are covering much more ground than the Frenchman.
Eric Bailly is the only outfield player who has worst running statistics than Martial during the course of the current campaign.
Backs up what I suspect most United fans have thought about this guy for a long time, madness to give him an improved contract as a reward for such a stinking attitude.
I'm not the one to defend Martial because I absolutely hate him as a player without even considering his attitude and lack of workrate. He's a player that does not have any particular strong points. You can't say "Wow, he's so good at....?".
The above clips and media article don't mean anything. Doesn't it sound like a big coincidence that the article came out after those clips? Kinda helps the credibility along innit?
The guy could have been injured and could have been instructed to stay away from running, hitting the ball or anything like that. And, maybe, he wanted to be with the team on the field when they're training. But I guess it's hard to look at positives when you're only used to bashing every fecking thing on a forum.
I'm still here. It's probably the same irony that hit Martial haters when he went on an 8 game scoring run. I seem to remember that the detractors were nowhere to be seen. It's the nature of opinions, people are quiet unless their vindicated.Ironically, they can't be arsed anymore.
What's th argument about?
There was a clear dip in his performances from the moment he signed that deal.

People said exactly the same stuff about Shaw, but he's been one of our most consistent performers this season.
It's just the typical sensational headline with zero evidence to support anything and people without knowing any background get all in a kerfuffle about it.
Big dip in everyones performances. Rashford, Lingard and Martial have all been struggling with muscular injuries as well.
We'll see what happens.
People are overracting to the pre-match warmup videos, but that's hardly a surprise given the average mental capacity.
You should have seen people defending him when Mourinho called him out, it was worse.I'm shocked people are defending him.
Yes. Cannot disagree with that. He just seems to have lost any focus he did have.There was a clear dip in his performances from the moment he signed that deal.
Problem is, if he gets sacked now and Martial is still here we're totally fecked. He can do whatever he wants to whomever he wants.Fantastic if true, this lot need to understand the end of Jose doesn't just mean they'll now be pampered. Ole needs to be just as tough even if it's only behind doors.
