After a nightmare with injuries during the World Cup, Anthony Martial insists he is in "TOP SHAPE."
Manchester United, in Anthony Martial's opinion, is poised to move up the Premier League standings.
On Tuesday against Nottingham Forest, Erik Ten Hag's team will begin their league campaign to advance to the Champions League.
United entered the World Cup break with only one loss in their previous 12 games across all competitions and a three-point deficit to close on the top four.
Martial responded positively to the question of whether United should be upbeat on MUTV, saying, "Yes, and why not? We have a very good team of players, with a great dynamic about us, and a lot of victories already under our belts. We now just have to keep on in those winning ways we have shown in these recent matches." We hope that everyone will return to top form for the challenges ahead and to win as many games as we can. There are currently a lot of matches coming up, but aside from those who went to the World Cup, there has been time for some rest, and they will now also have had a few days off.
Martial was among the group of United players who were passed over for the France team.
The 27-year-season old's has been hampered by injuries thus far, but in the eight games he has played—including Wednesday's League Cup victory over Burnley—he has scored four goals.
"We've put in a lot of excellent training, and it's been kind of like preseason for us," remarked Martial. I have personally profited greatly from our efforts in physical fitness training and getting in top shape.
Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez are still anticipated to be absent for United due to their participation in the World Cup final last weekend.
But Harry Maguire, who missed Burnley's victory due to sickness, might make a comeback.
The mood is positive, Ten Hag declared. The World Cup players have returned, have reintegrated, and exude excitement. They left a significant impression there (in Qatar), but now that they have returned, you can feel their vigor. They are anticipating the resumption.
