The Hidden Truth behind Anthony Martial’s downfall at Man United

[@andyandessen]

Very very unfortunate. The front 3 of Martial, Rashford and Greenwood were deadly. Off field events killed the trio and there goes Man Utd goals too.

[@UnitedLoyalist]

Well said

[@dondamon4669]

When were greenwood,Rashford and martial deadly? 😂 Even now greenwood isn't exactly setting the game alight! It's a myth that greenwood is so e great player his stats show him as average and normally I don't care about stats but with lazy players like greenwood I do as they don't contribute apart from g/a and just look at his attitude on the pitch and if a young player can be so disrespectful to a player like Ronaldo it tells you everything

[@Daniel_Goh]

During Louis Van Gaal’s charge, they bought Memphis Depay & Angel De Maria. Then they bought another one in Antony Martial, with Rashford coming from Academy. All playing from the left. Then they still have to get Alexis Sanchez. What a recruitment team United have.

[@tanzimibthesam5861]

Di Maria is always a RW. Though can play Left

[@Daniel_Goh]

Before he signed for MU, in the Real Madrid team, he plays at left midfield. In the WC 2014 in Brazil, he played left wing for Argentina. Finally when he signed for MU, Van Gaal deployed him in left wing and we saw less of Depay who played there. Even when Martial was signed he played at right wing. I only see more of Di Maria at Right Wing at PSG.

[@samirsolai7579]

Memphis was brought after Di Maria was sold, so that's irrelevant. The only bad signing here was Alexis because Martial and Rashford were doing well during that season

[@Daniel_Goh]

@@samirsolai7579 relevant, as I was trying to show the poor recruitment of the club. Buying players not because of team requires or lack of, but someone in suit fancies.

[@findingaether]

Di Maria was wasted at Man Utd. World class everywhere else

[@shanet5324]

Very good video. Martial came as one of most highly rated youngsters in the world and became my favourite player shortly after his debut against Liverpool. He wasn’t being nurtured and protected as he should have in the early days. Man Utd has become a grave for budding young talents. Either you become wasted like Martial and Januzaj or you develop into a narcissistic players like Lingard, rashford or pogba who thinks too highly of themselves. Despite constantly getting abused by journalists for being “lazy” or disinterested, Martial never cry abuse or start giving different excuses for his performance. I really hope his injuries can get better and he can go on to have a good career at other club. Merci Tony.

[@ReddevilsFanNGainz86]

Narcissistic?

[@shanet5324]

@@ReddevilsFanNGainz86 yes. A lot of our players have grown to be too full of themselves. Caring more about their appearance and branding than the club. Rooney said in an interview that lingard and pogba were dancing in the dressing room the day after a defeat. That was never acceptable during SAF days. Rashford is also another player that we need to get rid of. He has been living off being manc born and bred for years while consistently showing little effort. He and his entourage believes he is among the top players of the world when in fact he struggles to get into the top 50 players in the epl.

very fair assessment! totally agreed! Manchester United since Ferguson's retirement has been a graveyard for young talent & its unfortunate that we were unable to unearth Martial's talent & Balon D'or potential. that being said, Martial was also not blameless...i'd tend to think in some instances he could've done more

In the end, he was very talented youngster we brought in but never truly developed, fault lies with the team, but ultimately the player has to take responsibility for his development. No one’s happy with what has happened to this once talented player, but in sports as in life you are the one makes or break your career. Thanks for all the wonderful memories, and best of luck in the future, Anthony Martial! You will always be a Red!

But then the Manager does something for you, NEVER before done in UK Footballing History. Give soooo much time off, and you're not even injured. THREE FKIN MONTHS. We were overrun with games. 3 a week! 3 months to go tiptoe through the Tulips in the Netherlands and stare at some dudes swinging Pocket Watch while laying on a Couch. How much time off did Jesse get with his Family issues.., 2 weeks or so? It gets even worse. When Ronaldo's child passed away he missed 1 single game. ONE.., then returned to work. Remember what he said about young players not wanting to listen to him? This is the mentality of this usele55 kid, Sancho. A Man would have knocked on the Managers door and had a word about what he said to the Media regarding the training comments. He took the ch!Id route. Social Media! He called the Manager of Manchester United a l!ar.., boy who's achieved ZERO in 3 seasons at the Club. When the Man Utd, "Star", Rashford was dropped the Manager was asked why and replied that Rash was Late. The Media asked Rash about it and he smiled and said, yeah, ETH told us about discipline and I was late. A smile! DONE! No Fire, no Drama, nothing! Folks seem to have forgotten that! Sancho came out with his line, "I'm being made a scapegoat"! Where did we hear that before? In 2019 at Dortmund. Same player. But again, his M!nions seem to ignore that detail. Pep got rid of him, discipline issues at Dortmund, England and Southgate got rid, discipline again, now Manchester Utd, discipline again. 4 Clubs can't all be wrong. Lastly, think on this.

It was injuries more than anything I believe. Then having a new manager every season and never having an actual position didn’t help.

[@TrevM0nkey]

I think there's more to it than that... When you watch him play he seemed to thrive when he was the main man when he could make all the decisions. When there was another striker playing and he was on the wing or wherever, he didn't seem interested or struggled to be the second man. You also forgot to mention AM9 when Zlatan signed, Martial was trying to market his AM9 brand like CR7, but then got shoved out to the wing and given the number 11. He then went back to France when his kid was born but decided not to return back to the tour. That may be acceptable as he'd just become a father again, but it's not something you just decide to do yourself if your employers are expecting you back. He just seems like he can be a bit petulant at times and mentally down tools when something doesn't go his way.

His quotes reflect your final sentance. "The manager didn't/did do this/that, so thats why I was bad". Take some damn responsibility!

Sick Note.

[@abelovedsonofGodinwhomHeis35-6]

Well judging by the photo on the thumbnail Martial is really over 60 years old

[@markrobertson8543]

United have been killing careers, this 1 is on us. Manager changes, unexpected buys in his position as CF and then winger cost him alot. The club needs to better it's manner of player management

[@Zharkov1969A]

We should have sold him when Jose wanted rid of him. We could have bought a replacement. Instead we kept him and bought replacements - that’s not going to bring out the best in anybody. The new contract in 2019 was ridiculous.

[@homedevices-we3bn]

In life mentality is very very important and the people around you, if it was me , he should left UTD so that he can play more, but UTD salary was good so it his choice he choose money and not his career.

[@EdwinDanze]

Painful. Always had him in my Facebook team

[@fatdoi003]

i was team Martial until the bitter end... and i still think he's way better than Rashford

[@trevg9450]

Unfortunately the worst thing that happened to both Martial and Rashford......was JOSE h. It's no secret that Mourinho does not work well with young players. He is a win now kind of a guy and puts his trust is established players. Martial and Rashford were under Mourinho when they needed to be with a Manager who could have developed them. I have always contended that Martial and Rashford should have always been played as a Front Two....kind of like a Cole and Yorke type. But the Modern Game has a 1 striker system for the most part and very few clubs employ two up front. Their skill sets would have worked with playing off each other in a two Both these guys have underachieved and this period under Jose was never going to help either of these young guys. Both have their share of blame for not maximizing their skills but the changing Managers and specifically Mourinho was ultimately damaging to both.

[@ptnginoofficical]

to me he isa beast still he jus need tuh keep playing ,i does always buy him in my fifa manager mode

[@kwokchor]

martial first looked like a new henry to the point he was scary. then he fell and diminished into a less than ordinary player. relationships and other stuff likely played a role, but his mentality is definitely a huge problem.

[@f.n.rapidc8]

Martial was truly disrespected. Could he have had a different mentality? Sure, but it did mess with him. I think any person would feel disrespected.

[@phil8528]

Such an excuses player. Always speaks in the most poetically dramatic language like he’s a Christ like figure being sacrificed or something. What a clown.

[@ChukwuemekaKonwe]

The medical team must thoroughly looked at

[@MontyCrizz]

It all went wrong when he couldn’t be bothered.

[@winstonbrown1516]

It's that simple for you, is it? Nothing to do with Jose's total disrespect, Ole's habit of playing injured players? Notice after Ole both Martial and Rashford failed. Who plays a Player with not 1, but 2 fractured vertebrae? Ole. ETH managed to squeeze one season out of Rash, now he's back in the bin. Martial said Ole played him injured. We also saw that with McTom, Harry and Rashy.

[@MontyCrizz]

@@winstonbrown1516 yes dum dum, that doesn’t mean he can’t play good. Ronaldo Nazario snapped his ligament for a few years but went on to win a ballondor and a world cup, plus if you want to talk about Rashford, he is good (not this season) but 2 seasons ago he had a back injury.

[@MontyCrizz]

@@winstonbrown1516 Beckham was disrespected so much by the Real Madrid manager: he had to train all alone away from the rest of the team but because he isn’t stupid like Martial he went on to be one pf the greatest.

[@Mr.Monta77]

Our Martial. We should give him more TIME! Injuries held him back. But I know he will be next season’s european top scorer and the world’s greatest striker. He needs MORE TIME! Give him a five-year deal! My man Martial! All the journalists are rotting against him. Martial is going to show us all. INEOS is making a huge mistake if they let him go! He just needs more time! Now substitute Martial’s name with Ten Hag and apply the same logic?

[@ianmcdonald3053]

Martial failed at reaching his potential because of him!, no one else! Big shame because he has it, but sulking over competition and shirt numbers ruined him, doesn’t help himself by blaming anyone else.

[@stephenhope7319]

Clearly then there is reason to blame the Glazers for not caring about their football team.

[@dubnubgtd8538]

He was shit... got too much money for very little return. Bumper contracts for being injured half of it.. united ran the club terribly, gave players lucrative contracts. Any good manager would have got rid of him 4 seasons ago.

[@jamesmomo4463]

Its very obvious manchester united have a poor player management and they also have a poor injury management. This is the reason why we need to sell Rashford NOW because hes not been fit, playing through pain for a while now.

[@wtp7631]

What a crybaby

[@muhammadkhairulizat]

Maybe because Jose Mourinho not wanting him to be at his best, asked Zlatan or Sanchez to be better than him 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@sleepy_dobe]

So to see the best of Martial, he needs to be 100% injury-free and a consistent run of games? In other words, he can't be depended on to perform when coming off the bench or playing with any little niggling injury, unlike many others? What went wrong for him was his head. Mentally and psychologically, he was weak. He needed to be coddled by the club and the manager at all times regardless. One criticism or a harsh word here or there and his spirit goes down and he sulks, and that comes thru in his body language and effort. He needs his environment to be perfect in order to perform. Anything less and he just can't get his talent out of himself. That's not indicative of a top player. That's the definition of a soft player. He wouldn't have survived under Sir Alex. Fergie is a great man manager because he knew when to scream at you, and when to put an arm around you. Not to never scream at you because he knew you couldn't take it. If he knew you couldn't take the stick, he wouldn't have signed you for Man United.

[@luckyleonkinckon8800]

That's why those coachs came after Van gaal they never success in the premier league bcoz undelate of other players 😢😢😢😢😢
