Anthony Martial has told manager Jose Mourinho he wants to start after hitting Manchester United's winner yesterday.

Martial came off the bench to score late on against Tottenham.

Afterwards, the French striker said: "Me, I want to play.

"I don't want to be on the bench. Rashford has been good too and the manager wants to give us a chance."

On his role, coming off the bench to snatch all three points on the day, Martial heaped praise on Romelu Lukaku.

The French forward said: "The manager told me to find space.

"I know that Lukaku is good with his head and I found the space and scored."

"We lost the last game. It was important for us to win and I am happy to score."
