Martial, 27, has scored 89 goals in 311 games for the Red Devils since joining nine years ago.

Neville was shocked to hear those stats and believes there is no way Martial should be starting ahead of Rasmus Hojlund.

He said ahead of the match against Newcastle: “When you hear the stats there and think he is a goalscorer that cost £50-60million and has scored 89 goals in nine years and we still can’t get him out of the club.

“I don’t think we are being hard enough. The failing of the football and recruitment department is absolutely incredible.

“The reality is there is no way he should be leading the line in any competition.

“They have the young lad Hojlund who has real promise but they need experience up alongside him.

“If he came into United and his partner was Cole, Yorke or Cantona you would see a sensation as the pressure would be off him. I feel for him a bit.”

Fans agreed with Neville’s viewpoint on the Frenchman with one saying: “Wow…spot on.”

And another commented: “89 goals is pathetic.”
