After his winning strike for Manchester United secured all three points against Burnley in Game Week 24, Anthony Martial has now scored in three consecutive Premier League appearances for the first time since his move to Old Trafford in 2015.
The Frenchman, who had looked to be out-of-favour at Old Trafford earlier in the campaign, has become the Red Devils’ in-form player as we progress further into the new year, seemingly solidifying his status as Jose Mourinho’s first choice left winger.
Martial has returned a minimum of 10 Draft Fantasy points in his last three outings (10, 13, 10) taking his season tally to 115, having played just 1086 minutes. He is currently positioned within the top 20 highest scoring midfielders in the game and Manchester United’s fifth best performer, despite enjoying significantly less time on the pitch than his peers.
With nine goals and five assists already this term, he is unlikely to be available in 8-10 player competitions. However, with just 60% ownership across all mini-leagues, he is clearly still up for grabs among certain circles. If he is unselected, you could do a lot worse than to pick him during his current rich vein of form.
