Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has downplayed the hype surrounding Anthony Martial following the youngster's double in the Red Devils' 3-2 win at Southampton.
The Dutchman praised the striker for his recent performances, but was quick to point out that he is still only 19 years of age.
"It was very important after the PSV Eindhoven game. I have to make a lot of compliments to my players," he told BBC Sport.
"Anthony Martial is already special because we paid a lot of money for him. A lot of people are thinking he is a great star but he is a boy of 19. In three matches he has shown a lot.
"I am very happy with him but we and he have to keep our feet on the ground."
Martial has scored three times in two Premier League matches after netting his first goal during a substitute appearance against Liverpool.
