Worst scout to ever exist
But the argument is purely based on potential here, and thats "fulfuilling what we expect of him". Progression isnt a linear thing with young players, some player reach a high level at an earlier age, some later, a lot impacted by the team they're in and roles they have within it. Put martial in City's side right now and he'd be tearing up the league, no doubt about it in my mind at all.This is based on nothing though, you could say someone who plays pub football has potential but unless they do it when it counts, consistently and at the highest level it means very little.
Based on whats actually happened rather than what might or might not, Martial has some catching up to do on Alli.
Hopefully Martial will hit the heights we're expecting of him but we need to see a hell of a lot more before we can suggest he will surpass Alli, never mind achieving more than Muller, a player who has won it all.
Also as for what he has to do to surpass alli, well hes been head and shoulders above Alli so far this season (as Alli has underperformed most games/been non existant). They had very similar first seasons as well. So really its just last season when Mourinho came which is the difference.
