Manchester United
manager Jose Mourinho has said that he
has faith in Anthony Martial and has
backed the young Frenchman to show a big improvement in his third season with
Manchester United.
The 21-year-old failed to make the starting line-up for last weekend's 4-0 win over West Ham but showed his quality after coming on with a well-taken goal and an assist for Paul Pogba.

Mourinho has been vocal in his
desire to add a wide player to his squad this summer, with United strongly
interested in Inter Milan's Ivan Perisic
but the United boss insisted that is not in an indictment of Martial, adding he
was specifically looking for someone capable of playing wing back.
He said “I have
faith in Anthony, probably the player I was looking at was not a pure winger
because I have pure wingers. Probably the player that I was looking for is a
player that allows me to play with three at the back and play wing backs. Because
- as a pure attacking player - Anthony is a good player. He is one of the
players I believe is going to have a better season this season than the
previous season. I look at some of my players and I am sure that some players
are going to be better. Anthony is that for sure.”
