They’ve been really outstanding with me. “I think that’s what goes a long way to making me feel at home and at ease, and makes me really keen to stay here at the club.” Martial, who represented Lyon and Monaco before joining United, says fans in England offer a lot more encouragement than those in his homeland, with that helping to bring out the best in those on the field. He added: “In France, even if you’re one of the best players around, they might begin to boo and jeer you if you go a couple of games without scoring.“But here it’s just the opposite, they’ll try to cheer you on so you might be able to score, and so then you grow in confidence. “I think it’s just a different mentality. That’s why I like the fans here so much.”Martial has made 29 appearances for United in all competitions this season, with his goal tally taken to seven. The last of those did come back in February, though, so he will be eager to end a six-game barren run when domestic action resumes after the international break.</blockquote>
