Anthony Martial has picked out the best he’s played with during his time at Manchester United and he has praised Cristiano Ronaldo.
Martial has been interviewed by France Football and it is fair to say that he has caused a bit of a stir with his comments.
The forward did not hold anything back when talking about former Manchester United managers Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Every Premier League club’s highest-rated player of the season so far…
Mourinho has been known to fall out with players from time to time and Martial was one he did not see eye to eye with.
The ex-Tottenham and Chelsea was accused by Martial of “lacking direct contact” and he decided not to speak on their issues so he did not come across as being disrespectful.

“He’s super humble – and what a hard worker,” Martial told France Football.
“We often speak when we are at the gym in the morning before going to training and I would watch what he was doing. That’s only logical, it’s Cristiano Ronaldo!””
Martial has also suggested that club legend Wayne Rooney is “the best player” he’s competed alongside:
“We have spoken about being genuine and so I can speak about Wayne Rooney,” Martial added.
