What i hate about injuries is the lack of information you get as a fan...How serious is his injury? What kind of injury he even has?
Get fit Martial ffs we need you

Hugely miss him.
And the problem is with lack of information comes speculation i.e. he's feigning the whole thing and just doesn't have the bottle for the fight
But yes we're missing him hugely at the moment
Massively missing him. Not like we're amazing going forward with him, but him being able to hold the ball up at least changes our attack from the current players just being able to run in behind
Need him back ASAP. Play him up front, James on the left and Rashford in the right.
Fixed
The longer he's out the more he'll soar to almost Darren Fletcher levels of over hype.
Exactly. The club should have just released a statement stating that he'd be out for 4 to 6 weeks rather than constantly have us told weekly that he won't make it that match week.
And if they couldn't assessment how long his injury would be after a week or 2 than that reflect badly on our medical team who can't even diagnose players injuries and the length of time it'd take to heal.
And who said caps did make the opinion more valid? What a strange comment. It was simply a case to highlight the point, considering the absolute dross we have currently
And no, a striker is far more pressing than the midfield situation I feel. We are seriously struggling to score goals, and Rashford is simply not of a high enough standard for what we need at this club (and never will be in my opinion), and therefore the more chances we miss, the more times the momentum shifts to the opposition - it has been happening for years now.
Then why use the caps at all?
I agree totally that Rashford isn't good enough currently, possibly ever. Martial on the other hand, is good enough. We need someone who can provide adequate cover when he's injured.
Martial is good enough for now.
But we need to improve on him also. Someone like Dembele is not the answer also.

Not having him and Rashford being in horrific form has cost us points. He can't come back soon enough.
We do need him back badly. He's our main striker and was in good form before injury - two goals in two. You look at our main rivals for top 4 - Arsenal rely so much on Auba, Leicester have no cover for Vardy, Chelsea aren't blessed with great strikers though Abraham has had a good start, Spurs have a decent back-up option in Moura but before this season, you'd have thought Rashford would have been good enough for that job.
It's dreadfully unluckily that Martial is injured. People say we shouldn't have to rely on Rashford as main striker but he's not, Ole realised it and made Martial his first choice number nine. It's just a shame that Rashy is in such bad form that we miss Tony so much.
I agree that we're not amazing going forward, but almost all of our best moments of football, he's been directly involved in (including last season)
The only player in our team who can actually hit a barn door, and he's not even amazing at it!
Sad times.
Sad times.
This sicknote is getting rather annoying.
This is just idiotic squad management on Ole's part. The only way this season wasn't going to be a big problem is if Martial and Rashford were both able to play every game.
We have Martial injured and Rashford I'm fairly sure as a result playing in spite of carrying an injury.
Pogba also trying to play in spite of an injury because we didn't bother to try sorting out our midfield.
I think idiotic is actually quite a mild word. It's ruined our season after only 2 months

What in God's name is wrong with Martial? He appears unable to stay fit for more than a handful of games. Unless he is playing regularly, in which case I think he prove to be not be very good, we should get rid asap. He even gets injured in the warm up!
My god.
Instead of selling our only quality striker, we should add up the frontline and support this guy. He can't be relied on alone.
He wont make it, its like every week they cant catch a bus on time or some shit.
Is it coincidence that our poor run of form in Ole's tenure seems to come around the time Martial gets an injury? We need to get him properly fit again and not rush him back. If we can't beat Newcastle without him Martial is not our problem.
Instead of bold printing my comment about getting rid of Martial perhaps you should take note of the rest of the sentence about him playing regularly and perhaps not being very good.
If this guy is truly our best striker then we surely are in a pitiful situation. He would not get into any top 6 side on his current record of goal scoring/injury record. He is probably the most over rated player presently on the books. My opinion only and I am entitled to it but let's see how he gets on if he overcomes his injury and starts in the first team.
He does seem very soft, would you buy him now?
We need to get someone dependable. You don't see guys like Salah, Mane, Sterling missing 10 games.
Some people are thick. Martial isn't injury prone. Seems like he did an hamstring which is unfortunate and has kept him out for quite a while now. But his injury record isn't that of an injury prone.
People just get emotional over things and start writing essays about fictions. Sure it's frustrating that he's out injured right now especially with out current situation but pulling an hamstring can always happen to any player yet it doesn't mean they are made of glass all of a sudden.
Some people better look at his injury record here at United before going on spouting incorrect drivels.

Anyone else feels like he's been injured for about 6 months?
More minutes for Rashy?
I swear it feels like we’re the only club where random long term off field injuries occur. Almost six weeks now since he last played.
Martial misses far too many games through injury and when he is on the pitch he is not the most prolific scorer in the world. His biggest problem is that since a promising start he has not made the progress expected and this may be due to his injuries, none of which ever appear to be minor knocks.
It's already started since against Palace, so no.
I heard his injury was much more serious than what was announced by the club, and the reason behind that is that the club was nervous of the backlash having sold Lukaku without replacing him.
That's not actually true
I’ve heard something similar to this too.
Not just play but perform at a level they never have in their careers.
He hasn't been a regular line-leading first-teamer, really. It's alarming that now he is he's missing this number of matches. But that's the club's fault really for not having 4 very good, hardy strikers.
So they should be nervous, as the "strategy", seemed to be that Martial and Rashford would be able to each start 45 games each this season, and somehow hope the totally not ready Greenwood could fill in the occasional gaps.
Instead, one of the two has already missed about 6 or 7 games and we're only just into October!
While the other has looked pretty dreadful in the main.
Also, bearing in mind they gave the impression he'd miss about 1 game, and 2months later he isn't back, we can be certain it was more serious!
Just where the hell is he?
Club should be slated for no updates on his injury.
First they said that he is out for few games and since we are just hearing he is out for next game. No description on his injury by ole or some one from club.

Or perhaps due to the fact that Mourinho did not like him. When he eventually was running out of options, he gave him a chance and Martial started becoming the most consistent player that made things happen. Then they got Sanchez and relegated Martial to the right wing for a couple of games until he became an off-the-bench player to come on for a terrible Sanchez just because of the latter's name and contract. His lack of progress had nothing to do with injury, it had to do with Martial's own issues getting his off-the-field issues away from his concentration on his game and when he got past that, it was Mourinho and Sanchez who were the biggest wall he had to climb over. Ironically, he's the one along with Pogba who kept Mourinho from being fired a few months earlier than he should have been.
