I disagree with most of that but at this point it's speculation and opinion anyway, but I would like to add that we share the excitement of watching Martial develop.
Put things into perspective, Alli is doing freat but he's in probably the best team in the PL at the moment (based on last lets say 15 matches) with attackers and players around him that all have hit form and he's performing really really well along with them. Martial plays in an absolute crap team where almost weekly he's the only one that can pull of things, make things happens while the other top class players feel miserably under a really poor manager. If he played at Spurs or Arsenal, I'd expect him to do even much better, and Alli to be significantly worse if he was here at United. Anyway, I dont think Martial will redefine the game and rate both Martial and Alli very highly, great talents that will be the best in their position in the PL soon enough.
Not sure about that. Both fantastic players, but I wouldn't swap.
Wait until the summer and they'll be paying us £100m to take him.
"I promised my grandfather I'd play for Real Madrid"
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is one of the biggest stars in the Bundesliga, where he is banging goals in for fun for Borussia Dortmund, and has established himself as one of the most sought-after players in world football.
Suitors are lining up to try to lure the striker, but the Gabon international's heart is set on a move to the Bernabéu, if this is possible. "What was my childhood dream? To play for Real Madrid. In 2010, before the death of my grandfather, who was from Ávila [near Madrid], I promised him I'd play for them", Aubameyang told L'Équipe Magazine.
As previously revealed in a MARCA report, Aubameyang's family on his Spanish mum's side are all big 'Los Blancos' fans, a fact which tugs at his heartstrings: "It could be difficult [for a deal with Real Madrid to materialise], but I keep it in mind. When I was a kid I saw videos of Hugo Sánchez. The backward somersault I sometimes do to celebrate scoring goals is actually a tribute to him. Playing for Real Madrid would also be a great gift for my mother, Margarita".
Not Galatico enough.
So you watch both leagues regularly, I presume?
I also prefer Dybala. But I cannot see a top talent like him join us in the summer. At least not now.
Great jump and header for the goal, otherwise I don't think he's been great, quietest of Dortmunds attacking players.
No such thing.
Unfortunately, I see Cavani more as Mourinho's type of striker. He likes experienced target strikers. Also I can see Aubameyang staying at Dortmund or going to Madrid if they can't sign Lewandowski.
Meh, not impressed by Firmino so far though.
He was injured / not 100% when he first went there. Scored 1 in 3 in the Bundesliga (don't quote me Depay's record in Holland, that is irrelevant) and has looked very good this year - top scorer in PL this calendar year I reckon (I haven't checked this!)
Why did he get regular playtime then?
Cos he was still judged to be better than the alternatives when less than 100%. Plus he was acclimatising to the PL.
