France’s Anthony Martial, right, is folded by England’s Dele…

“I’ve always wanted to be a footballer, I never thought about doing anything else and it’s what I’ve always wanted to do since I was little, so I’m very happy”, he said.

“It’s not so heavy as everybody has written in the media, but he can not play against Watford”.

Wayne Rooney hopes Anthony Martial’s injury is not as serious as it looked after the Frenchman left Wembley on crutches.

He also suggested that Martial may be fit for Wednesday’s Champions League match against PSV Eindhoven, saying: “It’s not so long (for him)”.

United’s most impressive statistics at the moment are defensive. They are fourth in the league heading into the Watford game. He can play Wilson and then give him a break and put Herrera in his position to go through with this crisis. In order for this to happen, Manchester United fans accepted that their club was, and remains to be in transition, and that this process would take a number of seasons. Besides, Watford are not an easy team to beat or play at home, which was evident in their last home game against West Ham who they beat. He was fantastic. You just need to focus on the training and watch how he is taking the ball and handling it.

“For me he is probably the best goalkeeper in the world”.

At what would have been the low point of his career, Deeney told his fellow prisoners that he would rebuild his life and for the first time reach the Premier League, even when there were few guarantees he would play again as a professional. “He needed to come here to learn”.

Flores will assess leading scorer Odion Ighalo, after the striker returned late from global duty with Nigeria. Sebastian Prodl, due to a calf injury, Tommie Hoban (groin and hip injuries), Joel Ekstrand (knee) and Rene Gilmartin (knee) find themselves unavailable for selection. Both sides have struggled to find the net this season, while simultaneously being miserly at the back.

That means there could be a place for Memphis Depay, who has not started a league game since Oct 4 because of a dip in form, and 19-year-old James Wilson, who has played only eight minutes in the league this season.
