The 21-year-old came off the bench on Saturday to score a late winner for the Red Devils against Spurs and, after that game, United legend Gary Neville raised doubts about the former Monaco forward.
"It's been a stop-start Manchester United career for Martial," he said on The Gary Neville Podcast .
"For someone of his talent, he should be tearing this league apart with his ability. He's lost his place in the France squad. There's obviously something wrong with him.

Martial signed for United in 2015 for £50 million and after a relatively shaky start, looks to have established himself as a reliable player for Mourinho.
