Anthony Martial received backlash for his performance against Newcastle United, and former Liverpool ace Stephen Warnock believes the Frenchman should no longer be at the club. Martial started for the second consecutive Premier League match, after he scored in a 3-0 win against Everton the previous week.
Unfortunately, he failed to build on his performance and was widely criticised for his lacklustre display. Manager Ole Gunnar Ten Hag decided to sub Martial after an hour, and during the first half was seen screaming at him for his lack of running.
Martial joined the club in 2015, and Warnock is wondering why people think that Martial will suddenly start running and showing an interest in football. He states that if Martial was playing for Newcastle, he would have been pulled off after 20 minutes due to his lack of intensity and not running the channels.
"It's simply not good enough," Warnock says. "How he even gets in a Manchester United shirt is beyond me, he's not done it for years."
It will be interesting to see what the future holds for Martial and Manchester United, with the club expected to confirm a £1.3 billion deal with Sir Jim Ratcliffe next week.
