Picture: Anthony Martial wins Barclays player of the month award for September
Anthony Martial will be in action for Manchester United against Everton this weekend while Maurico Pochettino would be welcoming Liverpool and new coach Jurgen Klopp to white hart line.
Former Manchester United striker Andy Cole has praised Anthony Martial following his impressive start to life at Old Trafford.
The 19-year-old has made a remarkable impact at Old Trafford since becoming the most expensive teenager in transfer history with a £36m move from Monaco on deadline day.
Scoring four goals in seven appearances for the club, the teenage sensation has secured a starting berth in Louis van Gaal’s team and has established himself as a vital piece in the Manchester United puzzle.
But bizarrely, Martial was pipped to United’s own player of the month award by midfielder Juan Mata.
The north London club came from behind to seal a stunning 4-1 victory over the league leaders at White Hart Lane. They then round off the month with another tough away game against Alan Pardew’s Crystal Palace, who have made their ground into a hotspot for upsets against the top sides.
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino was named manager of the month for the second time in his Premier League career – his previous time was as manager as Southampton back in January 2013. When you make an assist you have to have someone finish that goal and it was very important for us.
“It’s good not just for me but for the whole club”.
