Premier League: Solskjaer told not to play Manchester United star out of position

Tim Sherwood believes that Anthony Martial has been playing out of position for Manchester United. Tim Sherwood relies on that Martial is much more operative as a winger than a number nine for Manchester United.

The Red Devils have had to rely on Martial as one of their main attacking players this season after the injury to Rashford and the exits of Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez in the summer last year. Football fans from around the world can purchase Premier League Football Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.

The 24-year-old France international has scored eight goals and made three assists in 19 Premier League games this season and he has also netted four times in the cup competitions for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men.

Manchester United bolstered their attacking line-up in the January transfer window when they sealed a deal to bring Odion to the club on loan for the rest of the campaign.

And former Tottenham Hotspur manager Sherwood feels that the Red Devils will benefit from having an out-and-out striker in their squad.

Sherwood Statement

Speaking in the wake of Manchester United’s goalless draw with Wolves at the weekend, Sherwood said on The Weekend Review: “What they are missing is quite glaring, an attacking force.

“They have not got a No 9 still. Martial was an entire shame in my view, Romelu Lukaku slashes another two goals for Inter at the weekend to rub salt in the injuries. Run around or put yourself in positions where you are going to score a goal.”

Ole said last week: I want someone to break their nose or break their toe trying to score a goal this kid is not going to do it for you.

He is not going to do it, he is not putting himself in positions, does not want to put himself on offer, he needs to.

That is when he is at his utmost daring. If you are going to play him, play him off the left. To be fair to Ighalo, he backs in.

We have seen him in the Premier League at Watford, he backs in, he wants to hold people off, and he is not frightened to take shots, potshots. I think he will play a lot.

Manchester United is currently seventh in the Premier League table and they will return to top-flight action after their winter break when they travel to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea on Monday 17 February.
