the world, according to Phil Neville.
Phil Neville has backed Manchester United teenager Anthony
Martial to become one of the best players in the world and feels
he will prove to be an "absolute bargain".
The 19-year-old immediately impressed upon his arrival from
Monaco in September, scoring three goals in his first two
Premier League games.
Martial has since gone six league games without a goal, but
Neville has little doubt the £36million signing will become a
major asset for United.
"What I think he brings most to this Manchester United team is
genuine speed and speed on the counter-attack, like we saw
against Everton when they went to Goodison Park and won, as
well as speed when United play a passing football style under
Louis van Gaal," the former defender was quoted as saying on
the official United website.
"He has brought genuine speed to the team, he is strong and he
is quick. People question the amount of money that Louis van
Gaal paid but I think United have got an absolute bargain and
his style suits the Premier League.
"I think there is more to come. He is still young, he still learning
and there is more to come from this striker, who I think could
become one of the best in the world."
