Not really. Valencia had zero trickery on the ball at all.Antony is more Valencia than Nani isn't he...

Completely agree. He has a role and his role is to finish off the chances, and to do that effectively he has to stay close to the goal. It's not like he's the most athletic or mobile either, so he isn't the type that can pass the ball and then make his way into the box to get on the end of it. I still feel like Martial doesn't know what his game is or his position or role.ETH has to do something about it. It's all good and well trying to participate in the link up but if you're not closing to dangerous positions after the passing then it's pointless
Definitely agree. He seems to have many shots blocked or saved, if he gets a shot away at all. Just not feeling that he's the centre forward we need right now, certainly not first choice every week!And even if he is in the right positions he can't finish its very disappointing.
Without strengthening our attacking options will come back to bite us sooner than later.
We have no one who could be described as clinical which is an issue
Summed up the first half perfectlyEverton are parking a bus, we’re either sloppy or overplaying it and the ref is a bit stupid.
And that DDG mistake was horrific.
Rashford poor ?Martial, Antony, Rashford, and Bruno have been poor.
Yeah, cant remember when we had a winger who is not interested in running a counter. He had lot of space but chose to stop running and options to pass. Does not seem to have lot of pace as well.He has zero connection with anyone on the pitch.
That one counter where he decided to run down his wing into exactly where Everton wanted him to go only for him to turn around and pass back...
He is an easy target for criticism. Even easier because there will always be someone that will agree just because there is always someone who dislikes MartialThe criticism of Martial is weird considering this is his best game in a while and we wouldn't have scored the first goal without him.
His finishing these days is below par but he's doing almost all you could ask of him as a striker today.
I though he touched that onto the post or are you saying he didn't help with the goal?Everton had a good chance off the post before their goal. DDG didn't help but they were already gaining confidence
It needs a beard with it. Or clean shaven.Keane's moustache is so weird. It feels wrong.
Keanos tash is still hilarious
Antonys best assets seem to be his linking with the full back and workrate, I don't think he seems to use too much skill to beat a man. Plus he's extremely one footed. I think the comparison to Nani is pretty lazy, he's more similar to a left footed Valencia imo.Not really. Valencia had zero trickery on the ball at all.
Nani was a very good player that was disliked by this fanbase because he wasnt Ronaldo. Nani was an excellent player so its not a shame that Antony isnt at Nani his level (yet)Nani was miles better and could actually beat a player.
Not if you aren't Tom Selleck you don't.Only just clocked Keane. He's gone full Magnum PI. You never go full Magnum PI.
More Obertan than either of them.Antony is more Valencia than Nani isn't he...
All the expectation from Sancho is wishful thinking as of now. It was not like Sancho was awesome and fitness caused him to lose it.Sancho can't get fit quick enough, Antony is offensively bad at this moment in time. We need competition on that right wing.
I some times wonder if people in this thread don't actually watch the games and just see the score and comment.Terrible first half. All the hallmarks of Ole's time
The fact that he's missed all those shots from good positions isn't irrelevant though.Weird pile in on Martial. He’s been involved plenty and managed to get 3 shots for himself.
Most of our play has broken down with Malacia and Antony.
You are right. Just seems to make absolute stupid mistakes.Is it just me or De Gea seems to make weirdest howlers?
