Martial | Di Marzio thinks he will stay

We need to keep Mourinho buttell him he cannot sell Martial and Pogba and also tell Martial that he should not leave. Kid is a special talent and we should not sell him, no way. It wont be that hard to put it together for him IMO if he just gets his chances.

I agree he's a special talent, but wheres he going to get chances in under Jose. Sanchez has the left and Lukaku has the striker position.Players Jose has sought and got he typically protects, I don't see him dropping either. I don't agree with it, but it seems to be his way. I don't think starts against weak pl teams and league cup games will cut it for him.
 
Both Rashford and Martial should have rotated for Lukaku throught the season who has played every game non stop and never gotten subbed or injured. As for Sanchez he can play all across the front 6 and considering Martial is actually a pretty good left sided attacker it would have made sense for him to start in the position of the player he replaced Mkhitaryan even if it meant he could not cut in and shoot. It disrupted a perfectly functioning front 3 in Lukaku, Martial and Lingard.
 
Yes it is a win-win scenario. But all this is hypothetical, the loan club has to be a top-ish club and they should play him all matches like Batshuayi does at Dortmund. But I don't think MOurinho would be willing to loan him, coz if Martial tears it up at a new club as a loan player, he'd look silly.

He wouldn't look silly.
Jose will simply recall him back and start giving him regular first team football.
Jose only cares about winning. I don't think he is particularly fussed about looking silly (especially if he is winning trophies).

Put it another way. If he sells Martial and then Martial does brilliantly, then Jose will look like an absolute buffoon because he won't be able to get him back.
 
Martial played wide the whole season barring 2-3 games in the beginning. Rashford made his debut against that Midjyt team in Europa league round of 16 tie which is was played in March.

We have signed a premier league proven striker in Lukaku who is on course to hit the 30 goal mark. There are so many risks involved playing young players as lead strikers that's why I can't recall any of the big clubs playing them. Both Martial and Rashford are so inexperienced. Also, there's a certain profile of a striker a manager wants. Mourinho prefers strong strikers with good hold up play. Neither of Rashford and Martial fit the bill. With any other manager, might have been possible but not with Jose. Still he has done well to give them ample opportunities.

There you go, we have not signed a player who has hit 30 goals, we signed a player who has the potential to hit 30 goals. Guess what, Martial if given the chance may hit 30 goals if he plays the who season through the middle.

Completely ignored the latter part of my post. Jose has a preference for his striker. Why do you think he would change his approach which has brought him so much success during his career just to accommodate Martial?
 
I see only two scenarios

1. Start both Martial & Sanchez
2. Leave

Now I'm also worried for Rashford as well.

Anyone please tell me I'm wrong......for both Rash and Martial.
 
I believe both Rashford and Martial are going to be utilised more as strikers next season, going off comments made by Jose a few months back. I'd guess it'll depends on who we sign and getting the balance in the team right. Hope that Martial will stick around, as still zero comment from the man himself, just endless speculation and negative comments from fans on both sides of the fence.
 
I really hope he stays. I don't want him to leave. We will make some changes in the summer to benefit him and the rest of the attacking players.
 
Players don't want to be patient these days, you don't really blame them. Wouldn't surprise me if he left this summer, Sanchez is clearly Jose's favourite. Though if he was to accept a rotational role for a couple of seasons then he'd enter the XI approaching his peak.
 
I just wish he'd move Sanchez to the right for a few games and start Martial on the left.
 
He has to leave. Pretty sure that what all his people will be telling him.
Expect him to start the remaining EPL games though.
 
What makes you think he wants Bale? He's already stated that we won't be signing any attacking players. I suppose if Martial leaves we might be in for someone.
I was referring to his past interests in him, sorry if I wasn't clear.
Bale can offer genuine width and go on the outside. He is way closer to a winger than Martial is. Ronaldo is a player you make concessions for and have players cover for him defensively because he is that good. Even now, Benzema sacrifices himself a lot for Ronaldo. We cannot expect that sort of treatment for Martial. If he was Neymar or Ronaldo it’s a different story, and you’d just build a team around him.
He can, but similar to how Martial can get down the line, check back and cross it in, it's not really his game. Mou most likely has a bigger issue with his workrate than his style on the ball. Yeah, that's fair enough regarding Ronaldo.

Bale and Martial do not play in the same way. Bale is more capable of being a genuine wide man compared to Martial.
 
I agree if he wants to achieve something, he has to leave. He won't get Past Sanchez and Mourinho styles doesn't suit him

Wish him the best if he leaves
 
if sanchez can maintain his performances like today, I dont really care much if martial decides to leave us.
well, I want him to stay but if he doesnt have confidence and pride to compete and nail a spot in United starting-XI under Jose, then, I only can wish the best for him with his next desired club.
 
We should offer him as part of the deal to get Eriksen. Great business for both parties.

Who said they did? My only comparison was that they're both better closer to goal than they are when having to run down the touchline.
 
Like already said, it's up to him. The club won't sell him if he wants to stay and he needs to realises to play at top clubs will come with competition. For me, I think he should have got more time rotating with Rom.

We’ll see what him and Rashford are made of over the summer as both should be training to develop a role on the right side of the pitch too.

Yes, but Bale can offer more width than Martial, which is my point. Bale is more similar to Rashford than he is Martial.
 
I don't get why anyone is worried about Rashford leaving in the summer, no chance in hell, he's getting plenty of game time and seems to get whats expected of him a lot more than Martial.

Bale really only offers width in the treatment room & marketing-department, while reducing width for the money-purse.
 
Had a right sour puss walking from the bench after the match yesterday. Didn’t look pleased we got to a final at all

He was smiling and hugging his teammates at the final whistle.
Stop spreading a false narrative.
 

Makes sense, if he doesn't wanna be here then adios. No point the manager trying to get something out of a player who wants to just be a sook. We've done the whole bin the manager instead of the players thing twice. Time to put the foot down, Jose is the guy. Like it or lump it, you wanna play? Stay. You wanna leave? Toodle-oo.
 
It's done, he's gone and we're going to be a poorer team for it cos you just know Jose'll bring in some functional, run in a straight line and cross it winger, rather than someone who will get us off our seats like Martial does.
 
I see Thomas Lemar got name dropped there, what’s he been like this season?

I'm one of Martials biggest fans, and I enjoy his play style, but if he doesn't want to be here we need to see the bigger picture. He is a valuable player so either we recoup £60-80m and reinvest in say a top right winger, or he will be involved in a swap deal for a player than we want and that wants to be here.

Add a right winger, LB and RB to to this current team and I believe it will take us to bigger things. If Martial wants to leave, I am happy with Sanchez and Rashford at LW. If Martial is sold we will have even more money in the pot for 3 top players this summer.

For me he has been good when fit but the media have a different opinion, they have been on his back the entire season.
