Toulalan not surprised by Martial impact

AS Monaco captain Jeremy Toulalan has stated that he is impressed with the form Anthony Martial has showed since joining Manchester United.

The 19-year-old striker has scored four goals in six appearances after signing for the Red Devils from the French side last month for £36m.

When asked if he was surprised by Martial's impact at Old Trafford, Toulalan told PA: "No, it is not a surprise for me.

"Anthony has got a lot of qualities. He is a good man and he will have a lot of success in Manchester.

"For Anthony, to be honest, it was difficult to refuse an offer like this. I am happy for him, he plays well at Manchester United."

Martial scored 15 goals in 70 appearances for Monaco after joining them from Lyon in 2013.
