He's been OK... But very worrying that he isn't shooting when through 1 vs 1...

Given the ball away a lot but done some good things too. Excellent foul to create the first goal.
He's doing better today, which is good to see. We can cope with Martial playing wide in the odd game, as we don't really have other options with Memphis out of form and Young injured.
He started off really well and has looked threatening throughout the half, but the moment he loses the first ball, it's like his confidence completely goes, which then turns into losing it twice, three times, etc. He just needs to relax a bit more because he can do it. There was a moment when he had like three players around him, he took it down and popped it off. Was class play. He's playing a lot better than he has though, especially as it's against Everton. Fancy him to score today. Hope so anywa.
His passing and touch is all over the shop but a rather encouraging performance.
Who should be starting ahead of him as the #9 seeing as he's much better atm
Started running at players again. A lot better but still a little sloppy at times.
Only a complete idiot would have tried shooting there.
At the very least, Martial should have made a much stronger shot.
He went to shit as the half went on.
Stated well though, and set up Martial superbly.
Can't see him being subbed, but hopefully builds on the good stuff from the first half.

Anyone else think he looks rather awkward dribbling? Tbf he's done alright so far.
The Martial chance? Don't think he did anything wrong at all, left him with a wide open shot on goal.
He hasn't been terrible. I'd rather see him swap positions with Martial though.
He was still in comfortable shooting range and a decent angle to even slot it near post still...
Piss poor
The standards here have dropped alarmingly low. 
Great finish.
Indeed
Course he'd score after i posted that 
hahahaha oh dear
He finally shoots and scores! Good lad.
Well done lad!
Reminded me of him former self a bit, that goal
Finally. He was due a performance after 10 years of stinking up the place against that lot. Well-taken goal.

He hadn't been 'piss poor' anyway.
Credit where it's due, that was a nice finish.
He looked leggy as feck when he actually broke through though, I thought the defender was going to catch him.

Lovely goal.
Good goal. Do it every week, please.
Thought he had another there
I like the second half Rooney today.
He's been very good today.
He started poorly, got better and scored! Must feel nice to have ended such a terrible drought.
Almost 2 there
He really, really hasn't. The amount of times he gave the ball away and spoilt our attacks was ridiculous.
Good goal, no arguing with that, but he was poor up til then.
Nice.
He's done what has been missing in his game, which is a bit of aggression and directness. Wouldn't be surprised if he knocks in another goal or two.
Very happy for him... good second half.
