Did really well. Worked hard. Got his goal. Great to see him back through the middle
Defensive much? He repeatedly gave the ball away with sloppy passing in the first half and early in the second.hyperbole much?
I love the boy and I am with you on this.Defensive much? He repeatedly gave the ball away with sloppy passing in the first half and early in the second.
The more he plays there, the more he will get better. It's almost like he is relearning the positionBest nine at the club at the club and he's yet to reach his peak.
Having a few sloppy passes doesn't translate to being awful at passing. This is what I'm pointing out, everything has to be hyperbolic, people just can't be bothered to give a fair and balanced assessment of things. It has to be over the top hyperbolic.Defensive much?

I didn't say constantly, I said repeatedly. There's a difference. If you want to pretend it didn't happen then feel free. He played well, but his passing was sloppy as it often is.Having a few sloppy passes doesn't translate to being awful at passing.

Also no he wasn't constantly giving the ball away, he understandably lost a few balls in the final third given the area of the pitch and being swarmed but he wasn't giving every second balls away under no pressure. That's just something you've made up.
Different game to the one I watched.I didn't say constantly, I said repeatedly. There's a difference. If you want to pretend it didn't happen then feel free. He played well, but his passing was sloppy as it often is.
Yea and he's still very good at it, was key in 3 of the goals, such a joy to watch.The more he plays there, the more he will get better. It's almost like he is relearning the position
For context I made the original post at half time, before the passing got better.Different game to the one I watched.
The ball inside for Pogba to make the break for James to finish was top class and Sam Luckhurst at MEN does not like him either - never sees what Martial does only the things he doesn't think he should do. Gave him the same rating at Greenwood who was only on the pitch 8 mins and a less rating than James, Lingard and Rashford.
I support every single player and I just do not understand how someone can come on here and not congratulate a player when he has done so well.
Yep, I thought the same. Between him and Maguire anyway. Long may it continue!Would be my MOTM. Did everything you need from a no 9 today. This is the Martial I wanted to see this season.
OK but he was still doing some great things and trying things. Every player today was a bit sloppy. Yesterday when I watched Man City they were as well, likewise the same with Liverpool on friday.For context I made the original post at half time, before the passing got better.
Yeah, Maguire was class, but I’m just edged with Martial due to him improving so much.Yep, I thought the same. Between him and Maguire anyway. Long may it continue!
That is absolutely fine. That is the beauty of these opinion boards.I just don't see it. He's not great on the wing, not great as no. 9, and not great on passing/assisting other.
yup you don'tI just don't see it. He's not great on the wing, not great as no. 9, and not great on passing/assisting other.
wait until he has a few bad games it will all come back in a secondHmmmmmmm. I was basically ridiculed on here, saying that he should be our No9.
Wash your mouth out. Whilst you're correct he remains alot of peoples favourite player.I just don't see it. He's not great on the wing, not great as no. 9, and not great on passing/assisting other.
I have stated the same previously, did not get any heat. Maybe you said it after a bad game?Hmmmmmmm. I was basically ridiculed on here, saying that he should be our No9.
