Manchester United moved closer to finishing this season among the top four in the premier league table with a 2-0 win at Burnley on Sunday.
And making comments after the game, Manchester United Portuguese manager Jose Mourinho has hailed one of his men in the person of Anthony Martial, admitting that the youngster really impressed him.
The Old Trafford club picked the full three points against Burnley following goals from both Martial and Wayne Rooney.
Following Marcus Rashford’s impressive performances against Chelsea and Anderlecth in the Europa League last Thursday, we expected him to start the youngster against Burnley, but the former Chelsea manager decide using Martial instead.
And Martial performed well in the game, and Mourinho, while praising the whole squad, has singled out Martial and revealed how pleased he was with Martial’s performances on his return to action.
The former Chelsea coach expressed how happy he was to get the win at Burnley, with the view that it is not easy to get the full points and it’s difficult to be in control – but his men were in control for 90 minutes.
The former Real Madrid boss expressed that he understood the way they are playing, and his boys played against their strengths.
The season is approaching it end, and Man United are still fighting vigorously to finish in the top four on the premier league table, and to also win the Europa Cup. Swede legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been ruled out for the rest of this term due to injury picked on Thursday, and Jose will need to rely on Martial and Rashford in the attack.
