I’m Desperate To Play – Martial

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial believes there more can be expected from him this season.

Martial, 21, has netted six times in 15 appearances, having managed just nine last season, and has earned a first France call-up in over a year.

And speaking ahead of United’s trip to Premier League champions Chelsea on Sunday, he told MUTV: “At the moment I’m happy, even if I could have done more, scored more goals and made more decisive passes.

“I think the difference is that last year I didn’t have a good season but, for now, things are going pretty well.

“I’m achieving my objectives and I hope to score a lot more by the end of the season.

“I must continue to keep up good performances for my club and if I’ve got the chance to start over there [for France], I will do the best I can.”

Martial said he was pleased to decide the Spurs clash after coming off the bench if required.

“I think when I come on to the pitch as a sub, I’m hungry, desperate to play,” he added.

“I want to get some action, to score, to make some key passes, I want to give everything I can to help the team.”
