No, you just took a lot of liberties with your interpretation. What I'm saying is Martial is playing basically the same way he always has, the difference is that Luke Shaw is now a consistent performer and Jose has completely exhausted his Sanchez option that should have never disrupted Martial to begin with. And now, Jose knowing he screwed up is trying to come up with a reasoning as if this was all part of his master plan and Martial is the one who screwed up taking too long to figure out the brilliant tactical improvements Mourinho was trying to teach him.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

Not sure why Ronaldo always has to be brought up at times like this. What Ronaldo did here and then what he went on to become at Madrid is nothing short of unimaginable for a very very long time. It’s unfair that hold every talent that comes along to that standard. There is still nobody like him even at 33, aside from Messi.
He is playing no difference than he was this time last season or even under lvg so it a completely pointless point you bring up. Jose has added nothing to his game.
Mourinho can feck off, he's the one who completely derailed Martial's career at United and now he's acting like he's the one who guided him
I think you're overlooking the part where I said at 'our club'. What he achieved at our club is definitely not unimaginable. What he did beyond our club is and I don't think I'll witness anything like it for the rest of my lifetime.
£50m down the drain
Remind’s me of when he said he was doing all the thinking for Luke Shaw. We need this guy to sign a new contract, I’m sure he’ll be desperate to put pen to paper after seeing this!
Yeah, you're probably right. Just frustrates me the cowardice at home and only putting Mata and Martial on after we were losing despite it being clear that Sevilla would be scoring for most of the game.
This guy.
So so detestable.
These are the quotes from the official website. Came here and see people dissecting a quote from the middle.
Idiot. He dropped him unceremoniously in his best period of form for Sanchez and never allowed the lad a run of 3/4 games after that. The first time he allows martial a run of games in 2 season and he confirms what the fans have been thinking for a long time that he's our best attacking player.
Still the same nonsense excuses for benching the best attacking player on this team, just longer.These are the quotes from the official website. Came here and see people dissecting a quote from the middle.
If it wasn't for Martial Jose could very well have been out if a job by now, so perhaps this spike in form is bitter sweet for Jose, he might as well take the credit whilst it lasts.
We could easily be near the relagation zone right now if he'd been sold.

Martial has improved the defensive side of his game in recent weeks. I'm not sure how much credit Jose takes for this (if any) but long may it continue.Remind’s me of when he said he was doing all the thinking for Luke Shaw.

He seems to have a struck a chord with Pogba. When the pair of them of on top of their game, United are in an infinitely better football team.
I didn't believe Martial had it in him to perform in Jose system and I thought he would leave in the summer, but he seems to be adapting
Today's performance shows a bit of tough love never hurt anybody.
Lets hope the penny is finally beginning to drop.

His brain, his body, seems many things related to age thing. I understand benefit of experience but holy shit proper tribal chieftain he is, feck if you are good enough, you are old enough thing. " He took quite a long time..." what else to say. Like Martial did feck all before he became United manager.
Martial is/was lucky that he had a support from the stands (song etc.), how many times fans asked via that support of JM to bring him in from the bench etc. Without it JM would chop him way easier and lets not forget, Ed seems like a fan of his, if stories are to be believed.

Agent Shaw with the text and image tag (can see on the actual tweet on the website) to Anthony Martial.
Hahah lol. Great tweet.
A normal day at the caf then.These are the quotes from the official website. Came here and see people dissecting a quote from the middle.
Tough love is what SAF did, not prematurely giving up on and selling talented youngsters like Jose is always ready to do. Credit here is reserved for Woodward, your favourite club figure
As expected. Anyway great words from Jose and Im really glad for Martial.These are the quotes from the official website. Came here and see people dissecting a quote from the middle.
Pretty much cost him a world cup medal too.
Like who?
Yea I don't know what his acolytes are on about,it's just more buck passing from their man who will never admit to any fault in anything
It was embarrassing when he did it regarding Shaw and it's even moreso now given the player we all saw and knew Martial to be before the whiny one arrived
Haha, the tweet looks awful. Actual quote is prettt much fine.These are the quotes from the official website. Came here and see people dissecting a quote from the middle.
Lads... when alexis Sanchez is available practically on a free then you sign him. If we passed that up and let city have him people would have freaked. Don't rewrite history
What if I told you, you can do that and not mess with one of the most in-form player the team had last season, now would that be something you might be interested in?
I agree with the idea and I have nothing against the acquisition of Sanchez but he wasn't free, Mkhitaryan had a value on the market and we paid a lot in signing on fee.
How ? Play your highest played and probably best player out of position ?
Feck that. We get him and play him on the right. Simple as. You don't just chuck your best player out of the team for any reason.
I have always been a fan of the unconditional love Martial gets from the match going fans. He gets a special treatment indeed because of his talent, and I think its clear he loves us back for it. It actually matters, and its good to see that in some ways, the fans can influence things at the club.
Even if he cost is Mkhitaryan, the problem isn't that we signed Sanchez. It's that we sacrificed Martial.
There was not rule stating that Sanchez had to play on the left. It's still something we are fecking up now. Now that Martial is in form, we have a very good player stuck on the bench.
He wasn't our best player and sanchez was a much better player , top 3 in league
Unlike Martial, Sanchez has played plenty of games on the right and performed at a high level. And he wasn't and still isn't close to be our best player. In the end you need to think about the team not the individuals and we needed to improve the right side not the left.
Watch this get completely ignored, while the shit spewers call him "vile," and "detestable." Pathetic really, how desperate some posters are to criticize the bloke.These are the quotes from the official website. Came here and see people dissecting a quote from the middle.
When Sanchez came, Martial was our most in form player. He won player of the month 3 in 5 times. Had just been Instrumental giving us points against Everton, Burnley among others. Should never have shifted him to accommodate Sanchez.
To make matters worse, the role didn't even suit Sanchez. Total feck up.
