Anthony Martial | Sevilla loan watch

Hopefully he will help them win La lIga.
Good luck to Martial. I believe in his talent.
Me too. Maybe he should have been loaned at the beginning of this season once Ronaldo came in.
Good luck to him.
Wish him well but definitely the right call to cut our losses on him. He doesn’t have elite level mentality to be part of a successful team.
Are we not still paying some of his wages.
Sounds like that’s the deal. No loan fee but they are covering his wages.
It’s a good move for United I think, if he rips up La Liga we should be able to demand a much better fee this summer than if he stayed here on £250k a week sulking on the bench.
Go and win the league!
You’ll probably pick up another Europa League medal too

Good luck Tony! Will be interesting seeing him in a new environment
so sad to see him gone as he is my favourite player but hope he gets his mojo back and come back stronger as i belive he has some part to play in our team, maybe with next manager who would gel our team better and then there are not many better forwards around who can invite those around to play with them. Looking forward to his games in La Liga and I am sure, at one point he is gonna be player of the month in the league as well minute to minute top goalscorer in La Liga. 16 matches left, and I bet he is gonna score at least 9 goals with 3 assists.
Wasted his talents with us is really the only feeling I'm left with.
I think he took the challenges of others being brought in as competition well early on, and put his head down and worked on his play. It's just saddening that someone with such immense technical talent can't do that as the standard.

100% agree, Martial is the most frustrating player I’ve watched at United. He has the talent to be world class yet he doesn’t have the fight and passion to get there
I'm pleased that he has gone to Spain as opposed to loaned/sold to another PL club. If we look back at his time here his best moments seem to happen when he is not under direct threat for his position. I think a Martial arriving at a club where things are still fresh and he is valued would be a dangerous prospect. I hope he proves some of his doubters wrong, though regardless of what happens there it feels like his time at United is done.
Sad to see him go, although this is undoubtedly the best move for all parties.
His United career became stagnant which is hardly unsurprising given the state of the team. The same thing has happened to the likes of Rashford.
I haven't given up on him just yet. I believe he'll be excellent at Sevilla and it'll act as the catalyst to kick start his career. It's a fresh start, not as much pressure and a less toxic environment than United's currently.

Well, both him and Marcus had 6 years to figure out what they need to do with their careers, disregarding the manager and state of the team.
When things got shitty, both of them chose to sulk, especially under Mourinho.
If you sit on your ass and don't run for half the games you're playing and you're suddenly 26 on quite the downfall, it's all on you, not on the team/manager/club.
I like it. Strengthens Sevilla and they are actually in the title race
He should've been moved on sooner, as his best seasons are spaced well apart, and from a consistency perspective his patchy form is what he's consistent at.
On his day he can be untouchable and the best player on the pitch - but those days are not enough to command a starting place as often as he'd like in the Premier League top 4/6.
And in fairness to the guy - I think the Mourinho era killed him and then we had Ole unable to decide if he's Mr Nice Guy and everyone's mate, or if he's a hairdryer manager. Clearly he's a sensitive lad, and it has impacted his ability to be the best player he can be.
It started so well, but it never really got much better. 15/16 and 19/20 were definitely memorable for him but I hope he moves on permanently, in a less demanding environment which may allow him to perform better.

Good luck to him, I hope he does well and returns.
It was always a bad move to overload our forwards in the squad knowing they couldn't all be accommodated, you're just asking for trouble.

Hopefully that motivates him even more to tear the league up.
He won't be the last player to leave because he can't high press. This could get brutal.
I have an inkling he'll do well in Spain, especially at a club which doesn't have the media circus around it that United has.
Hang on, they wheeled out a legend who played for Madrid and Barcelona to motivate him to play well for Sevilla? How much did they pay him? They’re already worried Martial won’t pull his weight!
Martial helps lead Sevilla to the league title which then convinces the board to hire Lopetegui as our new manager. 
That's a pretty cool welcome for the player, even if he played for other Spanish clubs
Maybe we can ask Fernando Torres to welcome our next signing that had him as an idol growing up?
I did start that video wondering why I'd not heard of Martial's love of Freddy Kanouté before now.
Rooting and fully invested in Sevilla now. Hope he drives them to the Title. I suspect we are going to see a settled Martial moving forward and when he comes back for the next season he might consider staying.
Poor off the ball movement there.
He is perfect for them, if he can be arsed. I think he will be great for them, as he was for us initially, but will fade away.
Can someone please translate the video message from Ronaldo?
Just stands there as usual
Technically not, but not there's no loan fee, which obviously wouldn't have been the case if he earned less.
Hope he does really well and proves his doubters wrong. One of my favourite Utd players of the post Fergie era and he’s produced some brilliant moments and games. Personally I don’t think he’s ever received the respect and love he deserved from our fan base but I also understand why some wouldn’t warm to his languid style.
That's quite cool, if a little odd! Ronaldo looks well anyway.
Interesting to see how he does. Have always been a big fan of his but his recent form has been really poor, sadly.
Funnily enough, it was probably the EL semi vs Sevilla where his downturn started.
They've made a huge splash about the signing on their socials, so plenty of expectations of him.

I doubt we will ever see him in a red shirt again.
Good luck to him though. Hopefully, he can recapture his form in Spain and become a success over there.
He never really hit the heights we initially expected but he was at least one of our better players during a time of general mediocrity.

Honestly I wouldn't worry about that being the case
Play for United again though? Oh absolutely not.
Basically: "Welcome to la liga, welcome to Sevilla, one of the big clubs in Spain and in Europe. A club with great support. I wish you all the best and I'll see you soon. Hugs, R9".
