If Martial can get a deal to play in a very easy Saudi League and earn lots of money, he should buy himself out of his contract and leave. United are moving on without him, and he has had seven years. Surely, where is his sense of self-respect? He will be third-choice No 9 if all are fit and playing well, especially if Garnacho plays well (so Rash may also be considered for No 9 for some games..).
Martial would get injured getting off the sofa
He ended up costing £44.7m because only one of his bonus clauses was activated in time.
Thanks bud.
Was just reading up on that and figured 2/3 out of his 3 clauses would have been activated but didn't read the "in time" which is an important bit of detail. The one i assume he never achieved in time was French NT appearances? (and obviously the balon d'or nomination one was another one of 3 not achieved).
Is Moyes ok ?
We couldnt give the useless fecker away to a saudi club for free.
Yeah, that was the one according to what I found. The most he would've cost United was around £50m because even if he reached his potential he was never gonna win the Balon d'Or.
Yeah, a pity. Clearly everyone had very high hopes for him
Didnt need to win it, just be nominated. They nominate a list of candidates and choose one. Its a lower bar.
Murmurs of Inter's interest in him.
They've been trying to get a striker in and just dropped interest in Balogun due to the price tag.

No way we let him go now.
How many weeks has he been at United and how mnay of those weeks has he been injured?
I agree, especially considering Inter will probably offer 7 mill and we have to pay half his wages or something like that.
No way we let him go without getting in another forward, which is not out of the question if there's genuine interest in him.
Gift Orban before Spurs get there first
Even if we'll sell him to them(which we won't because the source who reported it is a BS source)
I don't see which striker we could sign for only 1 season just to be a stop gap to the starting striker that we will purchase next summer

Good shout.
I think Spurs will get that over the line though, they've been linked with him all summer.
Yeah that will be wrapped up next week
We will pay 7m and his wages. But I am up for that.
Who would you bring in to replace him?
No one Martial is never available anyway.
So don't think we need another striker?
Nah do we? I would take anyone else to be fair.
There must be someone who can play that 9 role and is willing to be a backup for Hojlund
If Inter are looking for a striker maybe MG on loan makes sense. Do it for 6 months with a possible extention if all is going well.
I'm not going to go into any of the stuff we can't talk about on here. Sporting wise though I think it'd be a win-win-win, if Inter felt he was a good fit.

We still need to sign a backup 9
Moussa Dembele is a free agent I believe. Might be a decent option off the bench if our budget is getting low.
Bad season last season for him but before that he showed he could hit decent numbers.
Went to Saudi I think,we need to hijack Gift Orban to Spurs before it's too far down the line
I love his story but not at all convinced he’s all that. I just can’t wrap my head around it. He will flop hard is what my gut tells me.
Who should we get then?
We? Didn’t we just sign another young striker with potential? And the non-zero likelihood of the guy wearing 11 coming back?
Even if Mr 11 comes back he won't be in match shape until probably Christmas. I am talking about a cheap backup 9 who is maybe older and experienced to take some pressure away.
Could have gotten Mbappe for the same price, at the same time, from the same team. Makes you wonder.
Eh I am confused
That is an opinion, not a fact. There’s no way we buy another young player to rotate with Hojlund, no way. They all need a ton of time to adjust. Rashy would play upfront instead. All moot point, I dont think Martial is going anywhere, Inter would be so dumb to buy a sicknote like him.
Giggs recommended Mbappe while scouting Martial.
You are actually kidding me
WOW words actually fail me
