He won't be around for much longer
Manchester United play their final game of the season this afternoon against Watford at Old Trafford. Given the lack of anything to play for in this game, José Mourinho has taken the chance to give fringe players some minutes; Matteo Darmian, Scott McTominay, Daley Blind and Michael Carrick all start in what will be Carrick's last ever match as a player.
It was understood that Anthony Martial would start as well, but he is not even in the match day squad.

Martial was at Old Trafford today, but left three hours before kick off. MUTV have said that Martial is injured, although that might not be the whole story.

United fans all seem to be in agreement that this is the end of the road for Martial. Some have long been waiting for this and have come to terms with selling him, but some are still angry to see such a talented player be wasted by Mourinho.

Martial played in United's 1-0 defeat to Brighton last Friday night, but was not at his best. That might have more to do with the fact that the last time he played two consecutive league games was in January, rather than a lack of quality.
Mourinho dug him out after the game, souring an already rocky relationship. "For 10 months I get asked 'why always Lukaku? Why always Lukaku? Why always this player?' 'That guy doesn't have a chance to start, the other one is on the bench'. You know why now", Mourinho said.
