That's not what he meant though. He wants the money on Kane.Scholes is right. I think we should have spent Sancho money on Upamecano and Soumare.

This is why I don't take pundits seriously.
Martial is a strange one. He hasn't got a single defensive fiber in his body, so if you play him on the wing then you essentially give more defensive responsibilities to the fullback and CM covering the space behind him. This isn't necessarily a problem(look at Neymar) but it can be a limitation if the team isn't top class and can afford this "luxury". He's not a good crosser of the ball either, so that's another winger skill he's missing.They're accurate. Martial is a quality player but putting him as a #9 actually limits some of his better qualities.
We certainly needed soumare first team players.Scholes is right. I think we should have spent Sancho money on Upamecano and Soumare.
You know Overmars is the one that is the DOF of Ajax and not VdS right?I wish we do get Edwin van der sar.. one can only hope
Loved you as a player Scholes, but feck me you're a shit pundit.
He's a plank to be honest.
That is both hilarious and worrying. Is Scholes OK?
Unfortunately there are a lot of fantastic ex players who need to share their opinions in media without actually having more analytical skills than an ordinary football fan.Great player Scholes but he is not making much sense Sancho is nothing alike our front three , he doesn't even realise Van Der Sar isn't DOF at Ajax and How can any body study for Dof role at University. No matter who we get as CF unless we start creating quality chances they would struggle. Truth to be told this Interview doesn't reflect well on Scholes at all he comes across as bit simple if this is his opinion.
Just to add further do these pundits ever do any homework because they can't even get their facts right.
Your not wrong.

Cracking man-management from the new Salford boss.Hope martial makes him look like an idiot again this season.
You're right, CEO of the bigger firm does very little in comparison.Your not wrong. However.
There’s a big difference between being a CEO of a smaller firm, and then being a CEO at the biggest company in a sector.
I know lots of people who have been CEOs, then move a a role such as Commercial Director of Finance Director at a bigger firm.
That cant be true... can it?He also said Cavani should've been a loan signing... hmm.
The guy tweeting is also wrong. He could at least get his facts in order. Scholes flip flopping is wrong but I’m not sure it’s his latest opinion that he’s wrong about.That is both hilarious and worrying. Is Scholes OK?
Just when I thought he couldn’t get any more wrong and you go and add that in. He’s literally clueless.He also said Cavani should've been a loan signing... hmm.
Sure but we probably also won't win the league with Lindelof, Maguire, DDG (last year or so), Shaw, Pogba, Matic, Fred and possibly Rashford as well as 18 year old Greenwood being first choice for us either.Think I seen somewhere that Teddy Sheringham said the same about Martial. Utd wont win a premier league with Martial as a number 9.
YikesHe also said Cavani should've been a loan signing... hmm.
What is he wrong about? Did Scholes not make those comments at those dates?The guy tweeting is also wrong. He could at least get his facts in order. Scholes flip flopping is wrong but I’m not sure it’s his latest opinion that he’s wrong about.
He did. But he’s played more than 206 minutes.What is he wrong about? Did Scholes not make those comments at those dates?
Promote this newbie. He has a masterful command of abbreviations.I still think a lot of people on here and Scholes still do not know about VdS being a CEO instead of a DOF (Overmars is the DOF). In Dutch VdS is the Algemeen Directeur (CEO) and Overmars is the Technisch Directeur (DOF kinda).
He's just doing the tabloid trick of assuming the option of 2 years is the standard.“If you’re struggling without a centre-forward it should be a two or three month loan signing just to get through a sticky period. Similar to what Henrik Larsson did. A brilliant centre-forward, 33, 34 years of age, he just filled a little gap for us. It was exactly what we needed.
“I see Cavani as that kind of person, not at 33 coming to sign a two-year contract. I find it very strange. But he won’t, he’ll be loving it. I’m sure he will.”
Martial is not naturally a classic no 9. it’s easy to make that point if you objectively compare him to Kane, Vardy or Haaland. Even compare with Ruud or Cole. He has significant weaknesses or inconsistencies on several attributes if you make that comparison.These are just his opinions, so I don't see the issue. Truth be told, Martial is a bit of a "weird" CF. He's not the versatile and hardworking type, but he's not the lethal type either. He's obviously very skilled, though.
Personally I think we need to target both ends of the pitch. We succumb to pressure too easily and we're not effective enough up front.
According to Transfermarkt it's 208 minutes. Big difference...He did. But he’s played more than 206 minutes.
