Martial undroppable ?

Rashford is okay to cover the odd few games, as is Greenwood.
The issue becomes a problem if Martial is out for a number of games.

Martial has grown into his role as CF and I think him, Rashford, Greenwood and Ighalo is plenty of depth for now. It's someone on the right we need as we're short of those.

We should get Ronaldo back. We got the money. Look how much we paid for Pogba after he went away from us for free.

Yes, Martial is undroppable right now, but that doesn't mean that Ole shouldn't from time to time move him to the left and bring Igalo on in place of Rashford who's been a liability since the restart. The way Igalo has been treated by Ole is disrespectful.

Just hope we can get him back. Forget the money as we wasted tons of money on nothing recently.

So do you think we have adequate cover at CF if Martial was out for a pro longed period?

posted on 12/8/20

I personally dont agree we have adequate cover at CF if Martial was missing for a pro longed period.

Rashford - he isnt a CF

Ighalo - decent but off in Jan

Greenwood - huge potential but unproven at CF and would be a huge ask to rely on him for a pro longed period.

It's not about Martial being undroppable - more about there being other areas we need to prioritise before CF.

Yes, until January. But when Igalo leaves, we'll be in trouble.

Yes we do. We have 3 other players who can cover that position. Whether you like or rate those players is irrelevant. You can only have so many players in a squad, so sitting there with 5 players who can potentially play one position is too many imo

Some have said Martial is good enough and we shouldnt rock the boat by adding another CF to the squad.

Actually, some (I) said Martial is good enough and we shouldn't rock the boat by adding a top CF that will take his place.

Details are important.

When you play a one striker formation, it’s hard to get two quality strikers in the squad and keep them happy. It’s a problem for pretty much all the best clubs in Europe. It’s weird that people still don’t get this.

At which point we will have chance to address the issue. Likely extending his loan.

Would love him back. He's still got it and he would be great example in the dressing room for all the young players. He will also be getting to a point in his career where he might want to start doing coaching. Where better to do it where he developed the most.
Give him a 2 year contract.

I hope not. He's not as great as he used to be, but his ego is bigger. He will want to play all the games, take all the penalties, and all the free kicks. Don't forget that always used his "return" to United to negotiate better deals. No, thanks.

How is their ability to cover that role irrelevant?

He also forced his way out to begin with and his output in his final season, whilst awaiting his big move to Real, dropped significantly. Short memories

But we dont allways use 1 up top. Ole has said we sometimes play 2 up top.
