Manchester United‘s forward Anthony Martial received rare praise from Jose Mourinho following Manchester United’s hard fought victory over Everton where the Frenchman was the centre of attention.
The war of words between Mourinho and Martial existed since the time of the pre-season itself with the Frenchman missing crucial practice sessions due to personal reasons culminating in Jose Mourinho questioning his commitment and desire.
As Manchester United signed Alexis Sanchez last season in January, Martial’s game time was cut short and he was repeatedly left on the bench with a limited role to play, provoking strong rumours of him leaving in the summer for Juventus and that move did not unfold.
However in the recent weeks, the attacker’s game-time has risen and he finds himself to be in a promising form.
” At the moment, he is playing very well ( Martial ). Even if he doesn’t score, to create what he is creating, it is a solid performance for the team.”
