Up until that finish, I thought he was very good. Needs to find his finishing again, as he can’t rely on getting chance after chance.

Better with his overall play today but feck me he does miss chances...
"Haters".
Go and see the ratings. He will be rated as the worst player when he was far from it. Isn’t that hate?
Thought he was decent, linked things up nicely and helped us get in dangerous positions. Needs to put the laces through the ball for the chance at the end though. Tried being too clever and you could see in the replay him trying to sell pope with the eyes but it really wasn't on, especially given how weak the finish was.
He's the number 9 for Utd and has scored one more goal than Mctominay this season.
It's nowhere near good enough.
His all round game has been ok but he needs to be scoring
No it's the reality. He's wasting ton of good chances every game.
Why would anyone even "hate" him ?
Feel for Tony, he’s getting tunnel vision in front of goal. Last year he would have scored that easily.
add the injury too, very frustrating

Seriously worried about him. His confidence is completely shot. Need him if we have any chance to challenge
Had a great shot in the first half. My housemate (who is a fan of Martial) said he finds him boring now, like Hleb in that he is neat and tidy but not much substance
I actually think he played really well outside of his finishing

Woeful finishing but his build up play was again really good. Nobody can defend his finishing tonight though.
Will get unfairly slated in the ratings for that poor shot at the end.

Generally, he is. I think the goals will come.
Who on their fecking mind would say that Cavani has a better hold-up play?
Finishing though is abysmal so far, he tends now to take an additional touch.

at least when marti ain't scoring he still contributes to our play. it's a terrible run of form, frustrating as hell and it's lasting longer than we'd like but he'll be back better than ever once he's knitted all the aspects of his game together.
Really hope he doesn't start v Liverpool. Can't afford to carry Rashford and Martial while they are both having poor patches in form.
I thought his link up was excellent today. Barely put a foot wrong and should have gotten the assist if Cavani converted that tap in.
I think Bruno is having a very bad patch last few games. When Bruno performs both Martial and Rashford play well.
In terms of shooting, he can only finesse it. The others ways of finishing are lacking seriously
His finishing has been so poor.
Surely the laws of averages will mean he scores a hat-trick at Anfield.

He was our best attacker in the first half. Those misses in the 2nd half will blur his performance, after all attackers live and die with their scoring.
But generally, thought he was pretty good. Hope his injury isn't major. If he somehow manages to go into that goalscoring form from the end of last season everything is possible...

he'll score vs Liverpool...I'm calling it
His finishing let him down again but his whole round game was good. Feel like hes nearly getting his last seasons form back just needs the goals.
If he puts 2 away at Anfield for the 3 points, I'll forgive his trainwreck of a season so far
Can't remember his last shot with his laces. Surely seeing Rashford, Cavani and Greenwood everyday in training would encourage him to incorporate that into his game?
I think so too. He's getting into the right positions and history shows us he can definitely bag, I hope he finds his shooting boots soon.
Bashed him the other night, tonight I thought he was very good, particularly second half.
Shocking effort at the end mind you. But he played well.

Doubt hell be fit for a game in 5 days, sadly.
Looked like he twisted his ankle slightly when he took the shot. Think he will be ready on Sunday.
this, it was a poor finish at the end but clearly fatigued and looked like he pulled a hamstring in the process. His overall game was really good off the left and helped build up almost every good piece of play we created.
His all-round performance was quite good, but unfortunately his finishing is still letting him down.
Honestly, I think Martial kicking into form is probably the single biggest thing that would really push us into a proper title challenge. He's the only attacker we've got with the ability to really hold the ball up and bring our other attackers into the game. Cavani has nice movement and has shown better finishing than Martial so far this season (although it was just as bad in this game), but I don't think he can act as a focal point in the way Martial can when playing well.

Not good. Striker must score at least one of those two chances.
But no worries, he will score against Liverpool

He has never been very good at goal scoring. His record is what? 15 in the prem? So far this season he has 1 or 2?
Good player on the day, but doesnt produce the numbers. He needs to up it up if we're gonna go all the way

Boy, the count of one on one he has missed in his career..
Good tonight, though for whatever reason his confidence in front of goal looks absolutely shot right now. A couple of goals at Anfield would do him the world of good!
thought he did well tonight. He needs to kick the bloody ball at times, but his build up play was good, as was his energy.
we won a difficult game. No criticism for him tonight.
Yeah, and unfortunately for him you can’t be expected to be starting for Manchester United unless you can come up with goods from all sorts. Just being able to curle the ball won’t work.
Hope he's not out for long.
I thought it was just after the shot he did it. No grimace till a few steps into his chase of defender
He will forever be a "talent" ... Nothing more, nothing less. I mean, he is 25 now, 6 years at the club. Is or was he good? Let's say decent. A world beater? A ballon d'or winner? Goal scoring machine? Never ever.
I want to be honest, I would rather see DVB on the right in a Mata-RW position and Rashford on the left, rather than Martial in a starting 11. Shop him to get a good fee and bring in Haaland respectively force Greenwood more ...
