Transfer discussion thread

[SM]

He scored what turned out to be the winning goal against City to probably clinch the title for Liverpool, you'd think Jod would have some respect for the bloke.

 

[glenferry23]

Who ever said he was the best young player in the world?

I was wondering that too, who said that?

 

[pantskyle]

He did win the Golden Boy award which was a slight surprise at the time.

Bojan KantKick while trolling perhaps?

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Arrogance or actually just discussing the merits of a player?!

Hmm...

There's nothing wrong with discussing the merits of a player but your tone is coming across as arrogant.

Ah ok... United fans still rate Martial.

Posts like this do not help your cause. Instead of discussing merits, this comes across as mocking United fans for rating who is actually a good player. There's no need for it.

 

[pantskyle]

Appreciate the support guys but can assure us United fans don't really pay attention to Jod.

The Pele Jr stuff? Always thought that was just banter/piss taking. Not sure anyone ever really pumped him up as the best young playe in the world, but might be wrong.

FAITH started the Pele Jnr stuff because of the way he looked.

That viagra stuff must be working well for Pele with him fathering Martial at 55 years young.

How often do you watch United?

At the time when he was bought he was sought after as one of the best young players in world football. The fee was huge at the time and considered a bit of a coup that United got him. He had just won the Golden Boy award I'm pretty sure.

For me, he hasn't kicked on. I thought he was going to be better than he is at the moment.

I watch United when I'm sad and need a laugh.

 

[jod23]

Yes, it’s literally a similar ratio as Sadio Mane sticks then in for your lot, maybe that will settle in your brain easier....

Hmm.. so Martial is close to a 1 in 4 for United. Sadio is a 1 in 2. If you think that's close. Then ... ok.

I did appreciate that.

24, I'm happy with how he's going, keeping fit has been the issue with him.

walk on jodly.

Fair enough. But I have followed up with a real discussion about the player.

Barely anyone knew who he was and lot of people ridiculed the club for the move. Have you heard the song United fans have for him?

Tony Martial, he came from France, English press said he had no chance, 50 million down the drain, Tony Martial scores again...

 

[Zidane98]

Martial was definitely one of the best young footballers around when he signed with Utd. Hasnt kicked on as expected but still a top quality footballer with room for further development.

One that’s proving to be wide of the mark.

Fair enough mate. It was just a discussion. I remember at the time you bought him. I was annoyed. We were still a bit of a shambles and United had again broke the bank to buy one of the best young player in the world, fresh off winning the Golden boy.

I thought he was gonna be I guess what Mbappe is. I thought he was gonna make me miserable again for years. But he just is sort of a good player without being anywhere near the best players in the world. He just didn't kick on.

Which I'm fine with.

A charter flight landed in Dortmund from Salzburg today, and our CEO wasn’t at the UCL draw [emoji102]

Bojan KantKick fapping was off the charts when Poggles landed at Manchester airport 3 and a half years ago

That's fine but the initial post which has stated this all just came across as very floggish, like you were saying he's shit so why would united fans rate him. There's plenty of reasons why Martial hasn't kicked on, and I think you'll find that post Fergie era just about every player we've signed bar Zlatan and recently Wan-Bisakka and Daniel James haven't improved since joining us, been a real common theme for us and it's infuriating.

He's no Teemu Pukki taking care of both Utd and Leicester. Let's all hope Norwich stay up

LVG/Mou/Ole hasn't really helped. Some stability and Martial may just start kicking on again. The other side of it is mentality, you probably hear snippets about how players are behind the scenes. These days mentality is almost as important as talent, you need both in spades to be world class.

Agree with this. Mentality is huge. Also agree with stability and the right manager. United have had a shit show of managers since SAF retired.

Long may it continue though.
