Don't want to be overly harsh on Martial when he's in poor form but safe to say he and Cavani are very different sorts of CFs.
Tbh I didn't think much of him when he signed for us, turned out a great signing and a great character as well. I started to like him a lot more recently, not because of the goals but his hunger and determination.
Proper player! Runs his lungs out! The hope is that he will spark rashford and martial into life.
Gives me the feeling that he's delighted to be at United unlike the other two.

The others can't do that because they can't be bothered to move. They have no desire. They just stand there waiting for a pass back from where they passed it from.
All the best people are born on valentines day haha
He should be the main starting striker. We looked much better attacking when he got subbed on against Liverpool. Great anticipation, movement and work rate
He must start every game. If it is true that he can't play every 3 days (which i find odd because he looks fit as it gets) then use him in PL only. But he is for me, first name on the sheet regarding attackers. He is joy to watch and shows how proper no9 should play.
He is a proper player, but we really shouldn’t be relying so heavily on two other attackers ‘sparking back into life’ ... eventually we will have to ask the question are they actually good enough?
Seems that way by the way he plays but whether he really is or not is irrelevant, he is obviously a complete professional who totally understands that talent and effort are a killer mix.
You don't think Rashford is delighted to be at United?
I'd start him against Pool on Sunday
Man I really want to see this video!
Same.
Dont want to spoil the Cavani party and I am a big fan, however I think his build up play and ability to trap the ball leave something to be desired? I guess he is still adjusting to the pace of the prem however.
Close your eyes and imagine his movement
I said this before or soon after we'd signed him. I was confident the rest would see him return to near his best.
Didnt realise he was so good in the build up for that!
Thank you for sending that.
Cheers!
Is it any shock that the moment we bring in a genuine world class striker like Cavani that Martial wilts under pressure? This isn’t the first time when you recall how is performance levels dropped when we brought in Zlatan and he and his agent sulked at losing the number 9 shirt. Martial will never really reach his potential here. Cavani could have an Aguero like impact for us.
There are exceptions to the rule of course
Nah I don't buy it. Martial is just inconsistent as feck. It's annoying, but I don't think it's down to petulance or anything like that.
Imo Martial had the right to sulk back then as Jose didn't even bother to talk to him before taking his #9 and gave to Zlatan.

Interesting from that clip notice as soon as Martial gets on the ball 3 Fulham players come to pressure him. Everyone else in a red shirt gets one.
Martial never really got a chance to play as a striker once we signed Zlatan, so that's a bit unfair. Under Mourinho he was purely a left winger, and although he struggled for that first season he then fought his way past Rashford and later on past Sanchez to claim the first choice role.
He lost it to Zlatan. Instead of sulking, martial should have been ecstatic that he had a chance to give up his number to God.
What a moronic thing to say.
Fully expecting a Cavani goal today 
Cavani v's Rhys Williams
VAMOS
VAMOS
Time for another Uruguayan to make the scousers cry
You really don’t understand jokes do you snowflake?
Man Utd 3:2 Liverpool
That leaped header deserved to be a goal at the end
At fault for the 2nd goal but thought he was solid. You could see how pissed he was at Greenwood being greedy in the 10th minute for not squaring it to DVDB.

Been denied two fantastic Old Trafford goals now by the woodwork.

Thought he was class aside from that awful awful pass, so unlike a guy with his experience. Did brilliant to win the free kick and my God, that leap and header
. So unlucky.His hold up play adds a whole new dimension to our play. So valuable in the build-up.
If that header had gone in I’d have needed to get changed.
At fault for the second Liverpool goal but I thought he was great otherwise.
Such a calm presence up front

Did you see how deep he was off the ball? He’s mental 
Guy runs about the pitch like he’s a kid on the playground
