2 goals and 2 assists in 6 starts. Those are pretty productive numbers given everything that's gone on.

Spot on,I had almost forgotten what good wing play was at OT
I just hope that Jose doesn't rush him back in which will do his confidence badly again. We have Mata to hold down the fort while he's out. Different players, but quality nonetheless. Let him make a complete recovery.
Fantastic.
A (midget) monster of a footballer. 'nuff said.
His touch and control is amazing and it's all done at warp speed. Hope the injury minor because he looks like the missing piece for us.
Rather annoying that he got injured just when he was starting to really get started for us. Though luckily it sounds like it isn't serious, so hopefully a few weeks out shouldn't hamper his momentum to much.
I like that whenever he has the ball he runs and plays it forward. He's so dynamic, just what we need and what we miss from our LW options
Very good player. Glad he was given time to bed in.
Guys, if you have watched last year EL game, Toby blocked Miki's sure shot on goal. So this was a payback
I'm quietly hopeful he makes the West Brom game personally. Based on very little, of course, but in my own head, I've not given up on seeing him at The Hawthorns.
He's actually not that small and wins a surprising amount of air duels.
This, it's so nice to see a player go straight for the jugular instead of fannying about and see the counter fizz out to nothing. He has some serious pace as well
His pace is quite surprising, I think Wanyama and Rose thought "OK let's show him down the line, that way we will have him trapped". All of a sudden his little steps just got faster and off he went 
Typical though, if he hadn't tried that dribble he would still be fit sods law

He has good acceleration.
He was the second fastest player in Dortmund.
Any news on the injury?
1 week according to Jose.
Aye, his pace is way better than I thought. And he's actually using it, attacking the space. How often do you see Martial in full flow?
What's really brilliant is his dribbling technique. Look at his goal at Zorya, seems to me that he actually DID NOT LOOK AT THE BALL while running at full pelt. Amazing!

is already walking unaided. Hopefully could be fit for the weekend.
Not sure if anyone called him slow. Recall saying that whilst he is quick, you need to be consistently quick throughout the game.. sprint endurance is needed, to constantly take on the full back.. whereas at Dortmund, he would come in 90% of the time and rarely take his full back on. I had question marks over whether he could consistently run round the outside like a winger is expected to do in the EPL (not just in small bursts) and that he'd have to transition from being a wide playmaker like he was at Dortmund to being what Jose wants which is powerful out wide, be more direct, as well as his natural playmaking game (a transition which Willian was able to make).
It is a pleasure seeing him get to grips with England and what Jose wants from him. Wonderful player to watch.
Glad to hear, losing him would be horrible at this time.
Really? great news if true.
Hoping people are not too surprised to be honest, you're in for a treat because he will bring even more than he has already shown for us, can't wait!
Should be fine for next game. Let's get him in when the side is doing well to improve it further.
I always suspected it was a weight issue and nothing else.
I actually don't mind if he misses the next game if it means he is fully fit for the West Ham and Liverpool games.
Could do with his quality.
I know it's Sunderland and Boro. But we seen with Boro and Stoke that we lacked the final touch. Mkhitaryan brings that especially for home games as we saw last week.
Fair enough from Mourinho. The way he lost the ball and got outmuscled vs City was embarrassing for a player of his quality
People will ignore this and still stay with the whole "Jose doesnt know what hes doing".
They will probably use the same thing for Martial and Shaw. Probably.
When it comes to Martial, they already are.
Id prefer he play next game to get match sharpness back for those two.
People like @Scholesy
Mkh performed well earlier in season vs Hull...if we had played him and Martial more, we would be in the top 4.
