Martial was drafted in immediately against Bournemouth as the Frenchman has recovered in time to replace Juan Mata. It was clear that Solskjaer held the youngster in very high regards and he justified it with a good performance.

Even though he was not among the goals against Bournemouth, Martial did not set a foot wrong in the entire game. He started from the left and then switched places with Rashford to pop up from the right.

He ran through the middle and dropped deep at times. The Bournemouth defense had no clue how to deal with him and Martial tormented the opposition at his will. He picked up an assist right at the stroke of half-time, sending in a sublime cross with the outside of his boot that was put in by Rashford.

Martial was extremely effective on the night and was instrumental in winning the three points.
