Martial's position is looking untenable, surely Utd have to consider moving him to us? Guess they'll have loan takers at worst on the european market.

Mourinho is now being a dick. He’s got a new baby, what if there’s something wrong with the child and that’s the reason he’s not flying out there?
I think they’ll end up sellin him abroad now. Let’s just hope we don’t give them TA.

If we sell them Toby without getting Martial there will be pitchforkes.

He shouldn’t worry about the fine. He can claim statutory paternity pay so will only be £179,718.04 short over the two weeks.

Equally if we sign Martial and they don't get Toby in return I'm sure the Utd fans will feel the same way

He's definitely on his way out, it's just a question of whether or not Utd are willing to wait and try and offload him to PSG after our window shuts.
With the resources they have, they're one of the few clubs around who can afford to take that risk.

Do you promise you're not going to be the first to come out and say "let him rot in the reserves" if Toby (or anyone else for that matter) hands in a transfer request?

If he puts in a transfer request but they don't sell by the end of the Prem window I guess he's left in the position of asking to leave and being forced to leave the premier league which means he doesn't get his wish to stay in the prem, as I understand he does, and that is what United wanted all along.
That is easy to say in our situation - we have a history of holding onto players for longer than they wanted to stay, Modric being a prime example. Perhaps Toby being one now as well.

Possibly another of the reasons Poch is moaning about the early window close.

Not strictly true, he was a first name on the team sheet player for us and we wouldn't sell him to Chelsea but promised him he could go the following year, in the end we done him a right favour.

The response from United fans regarding Martial's absence is hilarious.
To an extent they are right in saying he should be back in training etc. but at the same time, they'd be praising this behaviour if Toby was doing it to us in order to force a transfer.

They get treated like commodities, because they are. I am sure they will sell him, to the right club at the right price.

Martial isn’t improving his future prospects with this behaviour. He is either trying to engineer a transfer, foolish to do it like this IMO, or there are personal reasons. I don’t think too many suitors will be impressed with a player disappearing for 8 days without giving his club an explanation. It’s pretty unprofessional,

Have I missed something? Who says he hasn't given United an explanation? His wife has given birth.

He's just had a baby. I wouldn't believe a single word out of Mourinhos mouth, he could easily be pointing the finger at Martial so that if they sell him and he turns into a star he can say what else could I do the boy refused to train etc.
Jose is a weasel, he'd do that kind of thing to prevent another Salah or KDB situation in the future I'm sure

Strange that normal employment law doesn’t apply to footballers.

They’re all contractors I think not employees.
