Martial reveals "great" relationship with former Manchester United manager Van Gaal
Anthony Martial believes Louis van Gaal's perfectionism has developed him into a better Man Utd player.
The French international, signed by the former United boss, believes that Van Gaal's constant criticism has made him a better player.
Martial made a big impression in his first campaign at Old Trafford after arriving from Monaco in a deal worth an initial £38m.
But he has revealed that even after a scoring a brace, he was made to analyse his weak points.
“I had a great relationship with Van Gaal,” Martial told L'Equipe.
“He always demanded perfection from me. He has done a lot for me. He always showed me videos together with his assistant, even when I had scored a double. He pointed out the things I had done wrong.
“Sometimes it was annoying because you expected to be shown the things you did well, but I knew it was for my own good.”
And the 20-year-old is looking forward to creating a similarly positive relationship with his new boss after missing much of pre-season following France's run to the Euro 2016 final.
“Mourinho is a great coach,” he added. “He has won a lot of titles.
“I do not really know him personally yet, but I know how much he has won.
“I know that Mourinho has worked with great players and he helped them improve and develop.”
