I R Baboon Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) Le Parisen reporting that Monaco want 60M euros and Marcos Rojo on loan for Anthony Martial. Lol as much as I would like him, thats just stupid. Edited August 31, 2015 by I R Baboon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Chicharito to Leverkusen for £12m. Good signing for Bayer especially with the departure of Son. Great signing. I'd love him at Albion. Rondon-Hernandez would have been a quality partnership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLASSJAW Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 according to some posts on the Manchester subreddit (r/reddvils), lots of sources in France are saying Martial is going to United -- i have no idea if any of the sources are reliable or not.

GLASSJAW Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 yea, should be happening: http://www.fff.fr/actualites/164024-570541-permission-exceptionnelle-pour-martial#brRRmLg1lId816sJ.99 how much did United gamble on this kid? the report on him from the sporting director at Monaco: Tor-Kristian Karlsen: Some thoughts on Anthony Martial: in terms of characteristics/role he's something between a second striker & a centre forward. Outstanding features: smart movement, excellent close control/touch (and overall technical ability), makes everything look simple. Very strong in 1v1 situations, obviously very quick/change of pace, surprisingly composed in front of goal for such a young player. As a vague reference he can in some way be reminiscent of a young Thierry Henry (not the spitting image, but there are similarities). On the flip side there are issues about consistency, ability to impose himself physically and possibly a certain lack of determination. As for the price, Monaco clearly believe Martial is to become a world beater in a 1-2 year perspective (many "insiders" seem to agree). So it's all about future projections & pricing of potential. Could be worth 10 million in a year, could be worth 80 million... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) also Januzaj expected to go to Dortmund on loan -- probably with option to buy, otherwise why the hell would they loan him out to a German club?

TheRussianRocket. Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Idk much about this kid but from the looks of it, it seems concerning. Not even 20 and dishing out estimated 50m for him? Why not just spend it on a proven stud instead. Don't get the move. For all we know he could easily bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if Januzaj move is official and Chicharito is gone, we sign this kid, just imagine Rooney goes down. Have fun holding a top 4 spot. Just doesn't make sense if all these moves are true. More concerned than anything. Move can be a touch of class but it can also blow back big time and make us an even bigger laughing stock than we've become the past couple years.

Martial could turn out to be a wonderful player in 2, 3, 5 years, but this doesn't do a whole lot for the club right now. I would say they should be signing another forward, but at the rumoured cost of this kid, I'm not sure they could afford it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything I've seen of the kid tells me you'd be better off keeping Januzaj and spending this money on Edinson Cavani. Or Karim Benzema. Or Luca Toni even. LVG has gone mad.

Malkin Cookies Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I don't know much about Martial, it could be a risk but it also could work out well and he could end up being like Rooney. Rooney wasn't lighting the world on fire when he was a teenager on Everton but we dished out the money and he turned out to be a stud. Now he was a bit more known than Martial so I could just be totally wrong and he could also be a bust but the kid has potential to be a good player. But we can't seriously only sign a 19 year old and expect our goal scoring issues to be fixed immediately. I don't think this will be our only attacking player signing, there is no way LVG sells Chicha, loans out Januzaj and doesn't bring in more than only one player. I'm happy we got Navas with the De Gea deal which softens the blow a bit because i am not comfortable with Romero as our starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sestito Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Big fee for martial. Whoever said could be worth 10, could be worth 100 is correct. LVG same win record as Moyes after 50 matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRussianRocket. Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 So Januzaj loan is official. Chicarito has officially been dealt. Lindegaard is gone. Martial deal isn't official and even if it does happen, our forwards are scarce af. Like you see the players we've let go and have failed to fill a position of need. Fixed a hole and created a gaping one upfront. Then you have City who is going absolutely world class and we are here supposedly spending money on question mark players. Like why not get kdb instead? Utd don't even stand for anything atm. There's nothing special about them and we've dished out so much money. I honestly have to back lvg cause it is what it is but as of this moment, I think he's lost it. If not a top 3 finish, fire him and let Giggs take over. No more of this philosophy bull and him doing it his way or the highway. Don't even think any big name profile players would want to come here because of him. Such hopeless times.
