Anthony martial needs to leave

Picture source

The topic I used sounds like I hate the player but that is far from the truth. I actually do like Anthony Martial very well and its for his own good that I think the player needs to exist the red devils camp.

Looking at the player like Memphis Depay, I see the same qualities in Antony Martial. Memphis Depay was a very good player before coming to join Manchester United and it was from there that Louis Van Gaal signed him up. However, the player failed to shine as he couldn't cope with the demands of playing for a top club like Manchester United. He gave away the ball too frequently and held unto the ball for too long. When Jose Mourinho came to Manchester United, one of the first things he did was to get rid of Memphis Depay.

Anthony Martial was one of the players who had been given the nod to go on and achieve greater heights like Cristiano Ronaldo. He had the qualities, the skills, the feints to make him quite as good as the Portuguese. This however has not been the case.

The player has had to gamble for playing time as Marcus Rashford is also proving his case and plays in the same wing as the frenchman. Over time, Jose mourinho began to use Marcus Rashford more and gave Anthony Martial l less and less time to play. When I see the player who played for Monaco and the one who now plays for Manchester United, I see a startling difference. The player now looks different, it looks more like he's playing without confidence at the moment and I think that is Mourinho effect. Mourinho tends to criticizes players often when things are not going on well and this sometimes affect the confidence of the players going forward. I think that's what has happened to Anthony Martial. To recover his form, the player needs to move. This is for his own good. As much as I like Martial, I think this will be the best option for him. He could move on a short loan or a season-long loan and then come back when times are favorable because as long as Mourinho remains the coach of Manchester United, I don't see the player coming out of the shell, the cocoon that he has built for himself. He needs it if he is to stand out among the best players in the world. He needs it to be caught up by the french national coach, Didier Deschamps.
