5 players who have let Jose Mourinho down this season

#5 Anthony Martial

Anthony Martial has come under fire recently for his performances

Like Pogba in a way, Martial arrived at United last season with a large price tag (£36m) and a lot of hype. For the most part he lived up to it too, scoring a solid 17 goals and pulling off some spectacular moments of skill along the way.

This season though – his first under Mourinho – has been a lot different. He’s only made 17 appearances in the Premier League thus far – he made 31 last season – and he’s come under a lot of fire. Recently he – along with Marcus Rashford – was accused by Jamie Carragher of “embarrassing” United in the absence of the suspended Zlatan Ibrahimovic due to his lack of goals and consistency.

Prior to that he came under criticism from Mourinho himself, as the Portuguese may have been referring to Martial when he accused some United players of being “mentally weak” and of letting down their teammates. And recent performances won’t have done much to change Mourinho’s mind – Martial hasn’t scored since February 11^th.

With his hefty transfer fee hanging over him it’s imperative that Martial doesn’t let Mourinho down next season. Or his time at Old Trafford could be shorter than he anticipated.

Has anyone else let Mourinho down this season?
