I disagree. Jose will be gone next summer, maybe the one after. He’s a manager that lives in the now, doesn’t plan for the future. He wants the tools to do the job this year, won’t care about next, or the one after.Jose would be more than happy to wait a year to get Alderweireld instead of letting us get Martial. I'm certain of that.
The last thing Mourinho needs is giving one of his title rivals a missing piece of their jigsaw and to see Martial go onto be the next KDB, Lukaku or Salah. Believe me Jose being the snake he is would have thought this through and probably realised that saying no to a Toby/ Martial deal will save him hassle during the season and plenty of face. He loses nothing if he doesn't go through with the deal and a lot if the deal happens and Martial smashes it more than Sanchez & Rashford this season. The guy ain't stupid, if anything I think he's stringing us along
