In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
What a player - am almost speechless. Cannot believe the composure he has at 19! Wonder if anyone checked his passport just to be sure
Yeah, I've seen enough. He needs to be starting every game.
Call me knee jerk but the lad is worldclass. What he's done so far is exactly what you would expect if we had spent £50+mil on a 26yo established world class striker.
Everyone laughed at the money we paid for him (me included) but he's going to end up a bargain......until 3 years from now when Madrid buy him.

He's our best player.
wow.... what an unbelievable player. And he is so likable too. Seems the opposite to Depay in terms of being quiet and not arrogant etc. Just gets on with being world class silently. (Love Memphis too). These 2 are going to form a incredible partnership.
knee jerk, at least by Fergie's definition of "world class"
19.
Hes setting very high standards for himself
So?
He looks like the real deal already. Can't wait to see him start a full match at OT against a team we should dominate on Saturday.
Every time he gets the ball near the area, you just expect him to score.
19yo or not, he needs to play every game.

How did he perform?
I agree It's a little unclear from the thread.
Thats it join me, get swept up in it!!
Looked dangerous nearly everytime he was on the ball. Showed some nice play in and around the box. He wanted to score and he did.
Any clips of his goal?
I hope the wall he is inevitably going to hit is a long way away. August.
Can people stop this Madrid nonsense please...
Dont car or worried about Madrid. For as long as Woody is in charge, I think they will have a hard time getting anyone from us.
Exactly. It'll be at Barca to replace Suarez!
We'll soon become so financially dominant over them that they'll really struggle to sign our players for the transfer fees we demand, as well as pay our players a wage that competes with what we can pay them.
Should be in huge letters. When he is on the pitch, the team looks dangerous. Unbelievable that that he is only 19. Honestly, without him we look toothless up front. Yes Rooney scored, but we just do not look like a threat without Martial up front.
The combination of speed, strength and cool finishing reminds me of Ronaldo at Barcelona.* He seems extremely confident in his own abilities and he looks like a proper number nine.

Whatever the quality of the opposition that was another splendidly taken goal. Excellent link up with Memphis and another cool finish. Hopefully he's able to play plenty this season because we carry a real threat when he's on the pitch.
Have to be careful and patient with him though. At the moment he seems to be running on pure adrenalin. van Gaal may need to judge carefully when to pull him out for a couple of games to give his body rest and to keep him fresh.

He's had 2 sub's and 2 starts... He's been fine so far. Against Ipswich on the pitch, he just knew he would score from the minute he was subbed on and you could just tell he would, given the chance.
We can, but what's the betting that Perez is rubbing his hands with excitement every time that Martial scores. If his scoring rate continues in the same vein as it is at the moment you can expect Perez/Real interest from January onwards.
He's really making it hard not to get carried away.
I'm almost certain he isn't.
like a casual training ground finish! effortless.
why? If we've bought him for £36m odd rising to mid 50s, how much do you think it'd take to buy him!
After the De Gea debacle? I would think Perez will be extremely wary of attempting to poach one of our players in future. He already looks a right cnut, and a repeat failure would probably see him out of a job.
Martial as our 9? Abso-fecking-lutely.
This guy is just completely unfazed. It's like he lives in a world of his own.
Four brilliantly composed goals highlight the young man's brilliance.

I like the way he effortlessly gets away from his man when taking the ball.
Dead ringer for Anthony Joshua too and he's a talented chap Also .
