As long as we don't do a pogba on him
He is worth the cash just for the puns the media can write
don't think anyone's writing him off, just saying (quite correctly) that its an obscene amount of money for a player thats proven nothing in the game
Within a few seasons this guy is world class on Fifa and Football manager. That's all the convincing I need.
Mex, seen a lot of people saying he isn't worth that much and what not. Hardly anyone has even seen him play. Some haven't even heard his name before today.

whats happening here is a perfect storm...
We lost. Rooney's current form very much a highlight.
Romero 1st bad game. Questions from the press about rushing to buy, which LvG slams.
fast forward a few little hours, and we have this scenario upon us...
Fans can't be blamed for choking on their Cornflakes.
what you've said O.P is the correct way to approach this, and i don't think anyones slating the kid, but more the circus of it all..
SSN having a field day...
Not just in relation to Martial. Most people here are going through the five stages of grief based on second guessing what deals we will or won't do in the coming hours, which players won't play well enough / would play well but won't get picked over the next ten months, and over our league and CL campaigns, whose utter failure are predetermined.
I wouldn't mind so much if they didn't feel the need to emote about it.
i do think we've got a lot of potential in the squad, maybe that was part of LVG's remit when he came in? build a squad ready for Giggsy to take over in 3 years who knows?
Martial
Depay
Shaw
Darmian
Smalling
Schneiderlin
Januzaj
Wilson
Herrera
Jones
Blind
lots of players there that will hopefully be much better players in 2 years time and some in their prime
United we win, he is a striker or a second striker. My guess is he will play up front due to his pace and finishing abilities
LVG is a very good squad builder tbf to him, I'm just not sure how good he is at using them
Mex, a lot of potential, LVG will set us up very well for the future, even if he doesn't win the league
So we're letting go of RVP, , Di Maria, Hernandez and also loaning Adnan in order to bring in a rookie teenager for an insane fee. What the f is going on? LVG has gone mental.

he's not a striker is he though? he's going to play probably ahead of Mata, therefore weakening us. And there is another young player in depay who is unproven at the highest level. our attack has gone backwards at least for the short term.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
if martial and depay combined score around 14 goals for us this season it will equal what RVP/Falcoa did for us last season.
Plus they are younger and will only improve.
How are you lot getting 50+ comments on every thread today. Our board is dead
looks like the fee is 50m and not the 60-80m being reported by some of the media

because we're signing some unknown from the french league not Papy Djilibodi
JA606 fans, when they were kibds>>>>>Mum, I don't want this cereal, dunno what it is and musta cost a lot...child you haven't ever looked at it or tasted it yet, why are you crying so and making such a fuss...Mummy knows best, don't she?
@sistoney67: Fee for Martial is £36m. Move accelerated after Monaco were knocked out of Champions League qualifiers last week.

do you ever post anything coherant?
@EPLStuff: Manchester United have formally agreed a £36m fee with Monaco for Anthony Martial. [bbc, times]
Mr C
I fully expect you guys to bid 50 mil on Stones just to finally test Everton's metal.
£36mil is a decent fee. Can still see one more signing being made.
Heard we had to pay some money to Lyon too, as a sell on from Monaco, so it's a decent amount
