I'd imagine Henry at a similar age was the same? Great potential but not seen as a "best in the world" type of talent. Also Ronaldo in his one trick pony days.....nobody could expect him to be the player he is. Impossible to tell with most young players

Henry was compared to Trezeguet who was already a goalscorer.

 

[Eddy_JukeZ]

What composure!

Martial!

 

[vodrake]

I'm in love

 

[ha_rooney]

What a waste of money.

 

[Pexbo]

Ruthless.

 

[Rado_N]

Neville just said it perfectly, you were never in doubt.

 

[Earthquake]

Ice in his veins.

 

[2mufc0]

Ice cold in front of goal. Super start.

 

[podurban2]

19 years old

 

[Red Stone]

Well, I'm in love.

 

[Americano]

What a feeling!

This is something special - savor it.

 

[Minimalist]

Cold as ice. Zero fecks given from birth.

Awesome.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Does he still look like Welbeck

 

[Revan]

Best player in the league

 

[El Zoido]

He's class. So happy about this signing.

 

[devilish]

I wonder if Gaz still thinks that Martial was a 'desperate' signing

 

[OneUnited24]

Never in doubt!

 

[11101]

Who is this guy?! How did noone know about him before.

 

[spontaneus1]

Looks like we will end up paying the full 80 million!

 

[Ish]

Cool as feck

 

[Rado_N]

If anyone puts him in their fantasy team I will personally hunt them down and remove their heart.

 

[OneUnited24]

I wonder if Gaz still thinks that Martial was a 'desperate' signing

TBF he wasnt the only one who said that

 

[Successful]

Build him a statue next to SAF outside Old Trafford please.

 

[2mufc0]

Exactly what we have been missing over the last two years, bit of magic to make things happen and clinical finishing.

 

[Shark]

We're witnessing the birth of a superstar.

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

Welbeck apparently.

 

[lilcurt]

As good as he is, and i believe he's something special. What does it say about the EPL that a 19 year old who wasn't prolific in the french league can come here and instantly look like one of the best forwards in the league.

 

[vodrake]

The welbeck comparison is looking stupider by the minute

 

[FC Ronaldo]

Martial's finishing these past 2 games has been ice cold. Showing Rooney how to play.

 

[Relevated]

already better than welbeck

 

[Spoony]

Still can't get around my head how a teenager can be so cool and confident.

 

[devilish]

TBF he wasnt the only one who said that

That's why they shouldnt comment about signings they know nothing about. Posters who actually watch the French league @kouroux and @JPRouve were both saying he's an excellent player

 

[2mufc0]

The scouts have done really well on this one, was never in the picture as a potential signing.

 

[Heine]

What a player! 3 Goals in about 90 min of PL football!

 

[Art Vandelay]

Making himself undroppable with the threat he is providing.

 

[Raw]

What's that, 3 goals in ~75 minutes in the PL?

Not bad

 

[Snowjoe]

If anyone puts him in their fantasy team I will personally hunt them down and remove their heart.

 

[Adisa]

Saviour

 

[Red-Man-Walking]

Ice Cold Killa

 

[Laphroaig]

I wonder if Gaz still thinks that Martial was a 'desperate' signing

Only in the sense that we were desperate to sign him and seemingly for good reasons.
