Courtois on Martial: "He's not a Major Player"

Fair enough
OK? Don't see it is that contraversial
He is not wrong. If Martial was a major player he would have scored a competitive goal for France.
He's not wrong.
I mean he’s right? Martial isn’t even a starter for us anymore.
The whole world knows Courtois is a dick but he's not wrong
Goalkeeper BLASTS Martial in SHOCKING interview
I mean, Martial is far from a football icon, but come on, the list included guys like Dzeko and Zaniolo and he singled out Martial. Seems pretty personal to me.
Martial needs the club to tell Courtois this statement is not right otherwise he can't be the number 9 that he is. It's like stealing his jersey number.
Martial didn't score against Courtois in 6 appearances v Chelsea.
In the 5 games v Chelsea since Courtois left, he has 4 goals.

Well hes not wrong is he?
Does he know him? If not, bit strange given the list that Vertonghen read out.
He has it all to prove again. His inconsistency season to season is bizarre, it feels like so many factors have to be exactly how he needs them to be for him to perform. AM certainly does not possess an elite mentality.
He has 1 goal in 27 matches for France. Martial is talented, but quite obviously not a star on international stage.
You joke but the sport bible headline I seen when googling this was... Courtois ABSOLUTELY SAVAGES martial
Depends on your definition of a major player but at this moment in time, he’s not wrong.
For a young guy hasn’t Courtois already built up quite the portfolio of talking disrespectful shit about fellow pros?
He’s probably right here but there’s a reason most footballers give bland platitudes to questions like this.

Shocking, disgraceful and utterly outrageous.
I remember this guy
Got it bang on.
Didn't he have a night in with de Bruyne gf whilst they were at Chelsea?
Martial FC will mobilise and post mean things on Courtois’ Twitter in response!
He's right, but he clearly shouldn't have said it.
Martial has 1 goal in 27 caps for France. I don’t know how many of those were starts but for a forward that is an atrocious record.
Maybe this will fire him up. Granted, he's not responded too well to pressure in the past, but his career is really at a crossroads. If he doesn't start to produce consistently good performances that potential will always be just that.
Nobody outside of United gives a feck about Martial. His relevance at United is hanging by a thread so this is not news to anyone.
Courtois is a knob..
Said nothing wrong. He's indeed not a major player.
The truth regardless of people liking it or not.

Not sure I wholly agree, you don't pinpoint someone out unless you give some form of a feck.
Since not enough people have said it, let me do so. He's clearly not wrong and Martial has 1 goal in 27 matches for France.
P.S. Courtois is not part of a major country.

If he can’t get in the French side ahead of shit Sissiko, giggolo Giroud, crock Coman and even Thuram’s sperm, then he’s definitely not a major player.
He was mostly used as a sub I assume, but that is still quite damning stat.
Courtois is a major player if you ask De Bruyne I reckon
Strange how I both agree with him and annoyed I get at watching a United player getting called out like that. If he's still a United player next season, I hope Martial makes him eat his words.
This won't bother Martial one bit. 250k a week to be 3rd choice striker.
Martial aside, why would anyone care about what Courtois thinks about anything.
Courtois is a dick, and while a good player, won’t be remembered as a legend anywhere himself.
Very good keeper, but instantly forgettable and someone you will struggle to remember in 20 years time.
Hard to name any top Courtois moments and can name a few for Martial. I hope he turns things around and makes him eat his words.
