That was one of his best skills-going down in the box and winning a penalty (sometimes with very little contact)Should have got a pen for Sevilla but it's Barca, so of course no pen.

I'm talking about the cross that hit Araujo's arm.That was one of his best skills-going down in the box and winning a penalty (sometimes with very little contact)
But Anelka was at least a properly good striker before he lost it, Martial was a promising young striker, who mainly played on the wing where it never quite worked, never really showed he could deliver regularly in any position and never really had good coaches to work with him.Anelka. He completely lost it at one point but he was amazing again with Chelsea late in his career.
Really? Seemed like there was hardly any space between his arm and body.I'm talking about the cross that hit Araujo's arm.
I watched a repeat and there was clear daylight between his arm and the body, enough to award a pen for me.Really? Seemed like there was hardly any space between his arm and body.
not moving off the ball can be a sign of laziness.Martial is a very technical and skilled footballer. He also isn't as lazy as some make it seem. He will do the defensive work. His biggest problem is his footballing brain. He doesn't see space. He always wants ball to feet so his off the ball movement is basic. He is too reactionary and doesn't anticipate. Throw in some poor body language and it's easy not to like him...
Or United is poorly runHis contract is insane. the fact he and Rashford earn what they earn. their agents are genius
Bingo. As a former employee and friend of current staff, I can confirm. Upper management is a cesspit of ego and incompetence.Or United is poorly run
I’ve got a crazy theory we’re gonna do some sort of loan swap with Chelsea for Timo Werner involving Martial this Summer. Anthony’s got more talent but Werner works far harder. I’m not entirely sure why I think this but I can’t shift the notion.

Basically calling him a lazy bastard he's just like 70/80% of our squad, yet people on here blame recent results on Rangnick.

It was the same at United, his figures in terms of defensive responsibilities there was never a problem. It was going forward were the problem was, he never had the work rate to occupy defenders to either run in behind to get on the end of a cross/pass, or he never ran the channels to drag a defender away to create space for a teammate, he just coasted too much.The article is seemingly about his output not his workrate. AS suggests that his increased defensive responsibilities could be the reason behind lower figures since he came back from injuries.

For a few years, yeah - I had a couple of roles there. Nothing particularly interesting, and certainly of no influence, but it's obvious to anyone after a couple of months there what a shambles the place is.Did you work for United mate?

Martial should consider a loan move to France against lesser competition to get his confidence back up. Mentally he seems checked out and all the speculation regarding his negative attitude seems be verified with this Sevilla loan.
i’ve run the numbers and this can only mean you’re ole. why did you ruin the cloob?

He should consider a transfer to France on less than half his current salary. Maybe then he'll find his hunger againMartial should consider a loan move to France against lesser competition to get his confidence back up.

Hardly a surprise.. they’re a hostile no nonsense match going fanbase, he was always gonna get eaten up once they’d seen his nonchalant demeanour. Needs to play in a lesser league with a more vanilla fanbase.

Hes next destination should be Turkey. Besiktas is his level now.He should consider a transfer to France on less than half his current salary. Maybe then he'll find his hunger again

He’s already part of flight club with BalesNo he needs to head to Wales. He could tear it up in the Cymru Premier with Cefn Druids.
Ya not running around and making an effort isn’t a sign of confidence he has been like this for years . Just another overrated player with a large wage packet to go with a very large ego.Martial should consider a loan move to France against lesser competition to get his confidence back up.

Would he still have the Balon D`or clause if he signed for TNS?No he needs to head to Wales. He could tear it up in the Cymru Premier with Cefn Druids.
