Bayern Munich vs Manchester United Preview: Team News, Predicted XI and 5 things to look forward to for the Red Devils

#2 Will Martial play a part in the game?

Martial still has a lot to offer to Mourinho and Manchester United

The Martial saga took a new turn this week. Amid reports that the Frenchman had left the United camp for good and would force a move out of the club, Martial returned to training, amid reports that the club might fine him for his absence. Whatever the case may be, Mourinho cannot afford to let his ego take over now and would be wise to slot Martial back into the team, depending on his fitness, immediately.

United are already short of attacking power and with none of the other strikers fully fit yet, Martial becomes very essential in the upcoming game against Bayern. Martial playing down the left, with Sanchez in the middle and Mata, for lack of other options, down the right, should bring a balance to the team ahead of the game against Leicester City. Martial's presence and trickery on the left, will also work to Sanchez's advantage and Mourinho must use this game to build some sort of partnership between the two.
