​Ex-Man Utd striker Dublin slams Martial for 'horrible body language' in West Ham loss

Former Manchester United player Dion Dublin was furious with the body language of striker Anthony Martial in the Carabao Cup against West Ham United.

Martial got a rare start for the Red Devils, playing up front in the midweek clash at Old Trafford.

However, the Frenchman put in a poor display, as United crashed out of the competition following a 1-0 defeat.

Martial has not scored for United since scoring twice in a 9-0 win over Southampton in February.

Dublin said on BBC Five Live: "We need to see more from Anthony Martial, we have said it many times before but he is not helping his cause.

"I want to see him sweating and putting the ball in the back of the net. He has not done enough since being at United, you see flashes and think it is the start then he doesn't do anything.

"His body language is horrible to watch, he doesn't want to run around and work hard to be Manchester United's No 9.

"There were too many parts in the game where Manchester United did not do enough, the final third was poor."
