Honestly, Like someone mentioned before, his injury record used to be good and he hardly got injured in his first 4 years at United. But for some reasons things just flipped the last 2 years and he became a sick note.

His absolute absence over the last 2-3 years
Can’t go into the season as martial first choice
neither his fitness or form can be called reliable
Especially for a club at such a major turning point

Surprise surprise.
Probably the worst take I’ve seen so far. Bravo!
It's gotten frustrating .
Ajax quickly adding another 10 mil onto Antony's asking price.
Martial has been spending way too much time with Phil Jones.
Only available out of 1 game out of the first 4.
Really disappointing.

That is getting ridiculous.
mother of fecking christ.
It's our fault really, we should've known better. You simply cannot go into a season relying on Antony Martial.

yeah super disappointing. With how good he looks so far when he gets out there under ETH def got our hopes up. Id still let ronaldo go but bringing in someone to play central would be a must.
Achilles heel? Sounds like he got kicked by martinez
Created our second goal of the season after 8 minutes on the pitch. He will be missed but he’s back for the Arsenal game atleast, we should manage Southampton without him.
Our season doesnt depend on him. Just like our defence never relied on Bailly. Glimpse of magic followed by catastrophic performances and injuries. We need a another striker
The difference being that he's our best option upfront whereas Bailly...
It's EVERY fecking year when he is needed, and in prime position to cement himself as 'the' guy, some weird shit happens. Whether it's the injury, his attitude, or his inability not to slap someone in the face. It's so, so deflating man. He was the first and last authentic jersey I ever bought, and I had such high hopes for the kid.
Yup. It's high time we get rid of him at the end of the season. When will we learn? Going into the season relying on Martial never works out!!
Hopefully it's just a knock on his Achille because if he's teared anything there, that's him out for the season.
Pretty sure we'd have heard something like that already, were it the case.
He's our most important attacking player. We look good when he's on the pitch. We look crap without him.
Other than Martial, our attackers are all headless chickens with an inability to keep hold of the ball or link up play. Sancho can just about do it but he has no one to play off. Martial is needed desperately to bring some cohesion to the attack, without him we are seriously going to struggle to score enough goals this season.

I think he was a big miss today. Exposed our lack of options up front
There's no way we're actually offering him a new contract off the back of some preseason performances, is there? Please tell me the club isn't actually that stupid.
His injuries are just such a massive problem. He absolutely transforms our play when he's on it and for me he's our most naturally talented player but he just can't seem to get off the treatment table these days.
Where did you see talks of contracts. Stop with this manufactured outraged, it's needless.
Do know the extent of his injury?
Tabloids are running with it. Hopefully it's just BS.
It probably is true but it's not an increase on his salary. It's on his current wages they said.
Has he actually had any major injuries? He seems to pick up smaller, different ones all the time.
Hardly got injured in his first few seasons then suddenly turned to glass.
We need him back cause he brings the best out of the other forwards.

The only player who can receive the ball in central attacking areas under pressure with his back to goal and make things happen. He is crucial to our play coming together.
Our goal against Southampton came after Rashford managed to do a bit of that.

He’s become our most important player (since he’s been injured).
But seriously we find ourselves pinning our all hopes on Tony Martial. Even if he never got injured that is definitely far from ideal. I love the guy but reliable he is not.

If we're counting on him and Marcus especially when Cristiano supposed to leave - we are fecked!
Is mental that we're now relying on someone who wanted out last year, has big fitness issues and beyond that huge question mark over if he can even do it week in, week out. New season, new manger and hopefully a fresh start. Would be fantastic for prime Tony to come back but can see why people are apprehensive about it.
Nothing mental with reasonable amount of apprehension. I am big fan of the talent he has but, also had reached a point where I wouldn't have been fussed if he had moved on to a place where he could play with maybe less pressure but, showcase his ability regularly.
That said, Martial did have a really good season the year before and had a bad 21-22 but, there is a top quality a player. He is at a peak age, has the confidence of the manager and shown that in this kind of system, is the kind of CF is ideal. As far as injuries goes, he has been getting a few muscular / knee issues but, also no need to get hysterical over when he contact knock from a game and needs to miss a game because of it (not saying you are but, others seem to be).
It's going to be interesting once Antony comes in, have a feeling that it will be a lot like post lockdown where we had a dynamic 3 up top, all that will connect, play fast passes, be able to get in behind and having the likes of Bruno/Eriksen to feed them in space to run at people.
I think that was Sancho. I don't remember Rashford being involved.
Varane Elanga Sancho Dalot Bruno goal
I remember Rashford getting involved ETH even mentioned it
He took defenders away from Bruno but he didn't touch the ball if that's what you're talking about
What’s the injury this time?
