Manchester United's Anthony Martial will start against Hull if he shines against Wigan, says Jose Mourinho with Luke Shaw also in line for recall

Jose Mourinho has challenged Anthony Martial and Luke Shaw to earn their places at Manchester United after confirming that both players will start against Wigan in Sunday's FA Cup fourth round tie at Old Trafford.

The two 21-year-olds have struggled to win over Mourinho since he succeeded Louis van Gaal in the summer.

Martial spent last weekend in Paris after he was dropped from the squad to play Stoke, with Mourinho insisting that the France winger cannot continue wasting his first-team opportunities.
