#3. The Anthony Martial - Marcus Rashford conundrum
This one, that I found in various forms on Twitter, is a pretty good one:
Q. What is Newton's fourth law?
A. When Rashford starts, Martial scores | When Martial starts, Rashford scores
Twitter cognoscenti were adamant in their belief that Anthony Martial should start - despite Marcus Rashford having put up two superb displays in the opening two games which he started and Mourinho made their wishes come true against Leicester. The Frenchman was suitably brilliant (in phases, though) but it took the introduction of Rashford from the bench to open the scoring for the home side.
Mourinho had used Rashford to run defenders ragged in the first 70 minutes before unleashing a Martial-with-something-to-prove against them when their legs were starting to give way... although he didn't do a straight swap this time, by the end of the game it resulted in the same after-effect. Simpson simply couldn't handle Rashford after the torture inflicted upon him by Martial.
Put simply, there is no conundrum here - Mourinho will simply rotate his two young, bright, talents all season long... and reap the benefits of keeping them both happy. This may be 2017 and the era of "promise", but which 19-year-old, and 22-year-old, can really complain about not nailing down a first-team place for Manchester freaking United - especially if he gets regular first team action all season round?
All this episode proves is that Mourinho was always right with his Einstein theory. Just let him do his job, people.... think he might have learned a thing or two along the way, eh?
P.S. This remarkable squad depth is what United had been missing over the past few years, - taking Mata off (the Spaniard had been brilliant in the first 45, don't let Twitter fool you) and putting on Rashford introduced a whole new dimension to the attack - and is arguably the best of any side in the League at the moment
