The fact that Anthony Martial's most memorable moment at Old Trafford over the course of his six-year stay was his first moment in a Manchester United shirt is indicative of his struggles.
Everybody remembers the goal. On September 12, 2015, Martial provided perhaps the textbook definition of 'bursting onto the scene' during United's 3-1 win over Liverpool.
'Martial, he has isolated Skrtel here... ohhh yes!' commentator Martin Tyler bellowed from the Sky Sports gantry as the then-19-year-old wheeled away in celebration in front of a jubilant Stretford End.
It promised to be the start of an exciting new era at Old Trafford, at a club that had been pining for its first superstar in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era.
