I’ve seen enough of Martial for the past 7 years he’s nowhere near good enough. He’s got 5 league goals in the past 2 seasons, if we’re relying on Martial this coming season then we’re in trouble.
I understand what you’re saying Martial is a dynamic player……when he wants to be. That’s his problem he must be one of the most hot/cold players I’ve ever seen.
If Martial brings out the best of Rashford, Sancho, and Bruno, we wouldn't just be relying on Martial for goals. That's the thing, it's all about how the front four performs together in terms of forming relationships and patterns of play. Last season, with Ronaldo upfront there was no chemistry in attack, hence the reason why Rashford, Sancho, and Bruno had terrible seasons, and why we became so reliant on Ronaldo, who was seen as a saviour despite us finishing in a Europa League spot. Balance is key.
That being said, we will definitely need another option upfront, to rotate with Martial. Someone young and hungry, someone who's a goal threat and willing to press, hence the reason why I wrote earlier that it's crucial that we replace Ronaldo, so that we have another option.
