Ashley Young reckons it's about time that Anthony Martial lived up to the mantle of being Manchester United 's No.9.
The Aston Villa defender, who spent four-and-a-half years as Martial's teammate at Old Trafford, crossed paths with the in-form striker as the two teams met in pre-season on Saturday in Perth. As Villa nabbed a 2-2 draw thanks a 93rd-minute equaliser, it was the first game of United's tour that Martial blanked in, having scored three goals on tour previously to help put a nightmare campaign in which he was shipped out on loan to Sevilla behind him.
Showing signs of a resurgence under new manager Erik ten Hag, the 26-year-old has been challenged by Young to grasp his opportunity, as he's currently the Red Devils' only recognised striker after Cristiano Ronaldo handed in a bombshell transfer request.
