Anthony Martial could pose great Manchester United threat to Everton

Marco Silva’s Everton are on a high right now after winning their last three consecutive Premier League games and would love to stretch that run on Sunday when they travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United.

Everything is beginning to click for the Toffees, but there are still some doubters that see senior defender Seamus Coleman as a potential weakness.

The 30-year-old right-back has not quite been the same player since he returned from his long-term injury layout last year, but it seems crazy that a small selection of people are questioning someone who has been so consistent at Goodiosn Park for almost a decade.

He is not in the best of form right now and his foul conceded a penalty in the win over Crystal Palace last weekend, but he’s got the quality to bring it back.

The Republic of Ireland international will need to be on top of his game defensively and blocking him out could be a great way to send out a message to Silva.

But French trickster Martial is a left-winger with brilliant pace and has managed to force his way into Jose Mourinho’s best XI in recent weeks.

Martial, 22, has scored three goals in his last two Premier League games and that included a stunning brace away at Chelsea.
