Would rather sell a 29 year old Sanchez any day.
He was playing well, then we signed Sanchez and played both of them in the same team (Martial LW, Sanchez RW). Then Martial started playing shit, lost his place. Sanchez went over to LW and Mata or Lingard was playing RW. Then one of them got dropped again for Martial who came in to play RW and had already thrown all his toys out of the pram at this point.
Hes inconsistent but the talent is obviously there which he has shown in glimpses.
I will do you one better Rashford instead his stock is relatively high if you believe in media stories how he should be playing regularly and how great he is we might be able to fleece somebody for £50 to £60 million according to me he would struggle to become regular for team who wants to challenge at the highest level Martial may do that in future this way Mourinho would have his hardworking soldier in Sanchez and we would have better player to take his place in Martial if he stinks again next season.
For me there’s 2 aspects:
He's caused more issues this season than any player we've had in a long time.Said this a couple of months ago, it's spot on. He's be one of those players that moves on every couple of seasons.
Wonder why you would think Martial would command the bigger fee. Let's say as you point out Alexis is the most consistent player, and he has a great season. Do you not think Aleixs would be worth more?
I cant see us challenging either in the league or in Europe tbh.
We are Manchester United.
Precisely. It seems Jose has a problem developing young attacking players while he's okay with young defenders. Lukaku is an exception, as he has sufficient experience despite his age. Pogba too doesn't seem too interested.
He's one of few players we have who actually looks to pick up thhe ball and create a chance. In fact last season Lukaku was the ONLY other player doing this for large chunks of the season.
Due to age/hitting his prime and all I don’t think so. Plus that wasn’t the question anyways, this more so a hypothetical.
Well now it plays a huge factor because it’s one more big signing we can make to make up ground on City
He has done nothing of sorts, that was my point. People question his attitude on every corner, while his conduct has been nothing but exemplary.
It is good news for Rashers, I actually think Martial has more ability but Rashford shows more fight, doesn't hide in games like Martial frequently did.
A lot of his fans are completely deluded about his quality because he's an excellent dribbler. He's a good player but nowhere near as good as he's made out to be on here by many.
Sterling was inconsistent too a few seasons ago, that is what happens with young players. You take the good with the bad.
To be fair, getting in the England squad and the French squad at the moment is not a fair comparison.
Exactly. Plus it's lazy to say he's world class in the making like most on here are.
I am asking what he has done for you to call him a nutcase.
He started 18 games, we won 10 of them and he scored or assisted 10 times.
Most of the games he's started we've dropped points, not saying that's his fault but you're wearing very rose tinted glasses on this one.
You can't compare the England squad to France's. Who was Rashford competing against for a call up? Sturridge?
The problem is he is being replaced with a 29 year who doesn't look up to the challege too. It's like some people think Sanchez will switch on some kind of button and be back to his normal self. The truth it's a 50/50 situation, he could be done and we could be in another Rooney situation. He also be our RVP next season
He isn't calling him a nutcase, you are misreading.
yeah, but i don't blindly trust mourinho or everything he says, i mean, he's the guy that took him off the team when he was in a decent period of form...his record with other players also makes it sketchy for me, although, what he says certainly holds more weight than random posts on here, of course
1. I didn't mock United, that would have been me calling us "we have the best transfer announcements FC" or something. I merely stated that we are not the be all end all of football, and that we haven't challenged for the most prized trophies in a while. all facts.
Martial FC til the death of me
If you’re asking about long term? Then yea, Sanchez. Short term? Martial. Why? Sanchez has proven himself. Has had a bit of a shocker so far with us but proven. All we ever seem to speak about when it comes to Martial is, potential. He needs to kick on a bit now.
The simple matter is that his replacement will probably cost more than any fee we can make from him.
I remember saying it a while ago too, he just gives out the same sulky vibes, hellh bounce around lower teams until the penny drops for him and might get a move to a bigger team when/if that happens.
I think his dribbling is hit and miss, a lot of the time he runs straight into defenders.
Sounds like mocking again.
Nani was twice the player Martial will ever be, we would cut our balls off for the chance to have someone as good as him on the wing right now.
