Prior to signing him, I didn't know anything about Martial whatsoever and was a little miffed to find out Chelsea had nabbed what I thought was our player. But after his recent showing, I can say I'm happy how things have turned out, early days yet but the signs look good.
Knowing what you know now about Martial, would you still take Pedro over him?

Mata hasnt really done it for you consistently tbf. Hire Rafa if you want to see his best form
........................
Well he scored a good chunk of goals for us and had great conversion rate while he has been here. He is very creative too.

His goal scoring seems to have improved but in his last full season for us he picked up 20 assists in the league and Europe combined. Thats what he can do at his best

And obviously with the tactics of the managerial GOAT that is Benitez

do you think we made the right decision by not going in for Pedro and signing Martial?

Let's be honest, you were in for Pedro. Just that you couldn't get him so the comparison is based on a fallacy. However, going in for Martial looks like a stroke of genius so far.

I don't think it was a case of one of the other. I think Pedro was a back-up option to a top player, who also didn't work out.
Had Chelsea not come in for Pedro I think we'd have both.
But yes, I'd prefer to have signed Martial given the choice. Based on his last 4 games, it would be foolish for anybody to disagree.

I thought Pedro was to expensive for the age he is at and him not being a standout player.
