Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has said that Anthony Martial still has a place in his plans, but “he needs to give me things that I like very much”.
Martial was not included in the match day squad to face Chelsea last weekend, as Mourinho’s men won 2-0 at Old Trafford.
The France international has completed 90 minutes only three times in the Premier League this season and Mourinho has now warned him to buckle up.
“We have been together for almost 10 months. The same way I know the players so much better now, the players should know me also much better now.
“The same way I know what the players like, I think the players also know what I like. The same way I have to go in the direction of the players, the players have also to come in my direction. That’s the point.
“That’s why Marcus Rashford, even without scoring goals, was always a player that I trust, always a player that I played, always a player that I support. Because he was always coming in the direction of what I want from a Manchester United player.
“Do I think Anthony is a player with great potential? Yes, I think. Do I think he can play successfully for me? Yes, I think. But he needs to give me things that I like very much,” Mourinho said during his Wednesday press conference.
