    Am a liverpool fan. I know Alli has been a revelation this term. However, Martial, for me, is a much better player. Because utd have been poor, people will naturally gravitate towards Alli because Spurs are doing well…

    Two very different types of players to be honest, don’t think the comparisons are fair.

    Agree with the lads. Play in different positions. If I could have one at Liverpool would be Alli every time.

    are there categories for the PFA young player awards? When messi wins the world footballer awards, do you pull the same argument ( that he cant be compared to others who dont play in his position)? I just stated that Martial is a better FOOTBALLER. And my comparison stems from the recent PFA awards…where i believe martial didnt feature prominently..if at all.

    If Martial didn’t feature prominently, as you say, then that would suggest you’re in the minority with your claim, wouldn’t it?

    R2R – I disagree with you, even on the point you make. Martial can be devastating but doesn’t do it enough. Ali also has more to his game,

    R2R-yes you are right,but the more easy question to answer would be-which would you rather have in your team,and you can only have one?!!!.

    Alli has performed more consistently than Martial this season. He has chipped in with big goals and generally affects the games more because he plays in a no8/no10 position. Add to that, he is playing in a very well oiled machine at Spurs.

    Martial has much more game-breaking ability and has played under the pressure of being the foremost attacking threat at the most followed club on the planet, he is top-goalscorer in a stuttering attacking outfit from the left wing.

    I have no doubt that Martial will become a more impactful and important player in the future. Absolutely none, I saw him live at Old Trafford vs Everton and his talent is absolutely mindblowing – the pace he runs at defenders at, coupled with his guile cannot be coached.

    Young Player of the year was rightfully Alli’s though.

    I think Martial is a better footballer but Alli is more consistent at the moment. Martial can be absolutely devastating at times but there are matches where he is marked out of the game (mostly due to United not having enough up front to support him). On the other hand Alli is constantly good with flashes of brilliance thrown in.

    Personally I’d prefer Martial in my team than Alli, simply because I’ve grown fond of the guy and love seeing him torment right backs =P

    Cheers

    Martial has huge potential but Alli is putting it on the pitch now. There is a chance Martial will not fulfil his potential so at the moment, Alli is the better one.

    Both of them behind Kane would be impressive though. Maybe Martial to Spurs one day?

    Something and nothing – feel sorry for him. He has sky to thank for that.

    beni, given the number of cameras that are covering these live games you would think players would work out that whatever they do will be picked up.

    It was something and nothing and Yakob was trying to wind him up but such actions will always bring a charge.

    i can only base who i think is better on what i have seen. this season i have seen alli perform very well consistently. he has scored more goals than martial, got more assists, created more chances and also does the dirty work (although sometimes too dirty). martial can go missing a lot and then come up with a moment of brilliance. alli will perform for 90 minutes. i think people expected a lot more from martial this season. both players have huge potential and can achieve great things in their careers.

    i also dont think you can blame sky for alli’s inevitable ban. yes they brought it to light, but alli can only blame himself.
