Louis van Gaal has insisted Anthony
Martial will not get carried away by his fast start at Manchester United
after scoring a fourth goal in as many games.
The £36m forward came off the bench to
score United’s last goal in a 3-0 win over Ipswich Town in the Capital
One Cup, when Wayne Rooney and Andreas Pereira also struck, according to
ESPN.
Martial scored on his United debut
against Liverpool and twice in his first Premier League start against
Southampton, but Van Gaal said there is no danger success will go to his
head.
“That
is not so difficult because he is a player who is very modest,” he said
in a news conference. “He knows he can score because of his fellow
players.”
Van Gaal was able to bring Martial on
against Liverpool and Ipswich when his side were already ahead and he
felt that helped the 19-year-old Frenchman.
“We made him two times very easily
because we won the game and then the gaps are existing and then with his
speed and his composure he can score,” he explained. “He did it also
against Liverpool and now again. We are happy but still we have to keep
our feet on the ground.”
United have been drawn at home against another Championship club, Middlesbrough, in the fourth round.
And Van Gaal is anticipating a tough tie,
adding, “It is the top club in the Championship. I don’t know much
about them. The scout shall analyse them as he did with Ipswich Town but
it is one of the top clubs so it shall not be easy.”
