Just tell us OP. What do you think?

Is Anthony Martial's goal return recently, acceptable....?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s not recently, it’s the entire season , in the league.
..............perfectly acceptable for Manchester United’s no 9 to have scored 4 goals in the league this season.

Depends? Is that 1488 minutes his entire seasons contribution or is that a chunk you have taken where he has struggled to score?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Entire seasons contribution in the league.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It should be better but how many penalties has he won for you?

It is around the same ratio as Emile Heskey.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Why does Heskey always gets a bad name!
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Because he was a really crap striker.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I remember I was travelling from Sydney to a resort for surfing hols and stayed over a town called Newcastle just outside Sydney and was out for dinner when a local hearing my accent, was eager to tell me their local "soccer" team procured the services of a certain ex-PL striker. He then told me the name was Emile Heskey

Weird town Newcastle. Ended up in some strange casino place and don't remember much else after that

That strange casino place was just about the only place to go in Newcastle. I was there in about 1979/80 on a merchant navy oil tanker.. Had an eathquake and bomb hoax call at the social club. Everybody was evacuated from the building to wait outside while they did a search. It was quite a cool night and I lent my jacket to a lass. Because of the earthquake tremor they had to spend several days doing safety checks at the oil terminal.
I won two jackpots on the pokies and had a lovely girlfriend for 3 days so good memories of Newcastle for me.

When in Sydney, I lived in the Northern beaches, and Newcastle was very close to us and would drive to it most often.
Had the best fish dish there and loved stopping over.
That day I was on my way to Port Macquarie, to do some surfing. By the time I left Sydney, it got dark very quickly and though Newcastle was only few miles away, ended up staying overnight as I didn't fancy driving at night. It is weird in Australia how it changes to evenings so quickly and darkness falls pretty fast.
Best town I stayed at was Nambucca Heads, when I was on my way to Brisbane from Sydney - driving again!
Good memories Australia!

OP

Have you found anyone who thinks it is a good return?

Some rival fans maybe?

Joelinton might do. Maybe he should ask him.

Should got for it..Yolo and all that

It's a beautiful country and they know how to look after it

My dream was to emigrate for ever, and I was on track but after 4 years, for personal reasons, I was forced to come back home.
One thing I'd say that the lifestyle is truly idyllic with me coming back from work, and going for a swim in the open air pools by the ocean and swimming sometimes till midnight as the water seemed always be around 21o C!
At night, it felt like the moon was about to fall into the ocean and it was probably 10 times the size we see here!

One thing I'd advise you is that it is far, far and far from Europe!

It wasn't 10 times the size of the "SAME" moon as in here but it sure looked that way!

Yeah we shall see, been all over the east coast but not south of Sydney. Really is a beautiful place. Only just moved to Arizona so will squeeze a few years out of the west before making a move if we do one.

that's it, everywhere seems so far away from Sydney

I think there is a new commercial airliner that is trying to cut the time it takes to get to Sydney.

Been out to Oz twice and both times spent a week or more in Asia on the way out and only one time came directly home. It is like you say though, far far far and in emergencies you are not getting home any time soon. That said the isolation seems to have helped massively during the pandemic.
