| Anthony Martial has been a revelation since joining Manchester United |
JAMIE REDKNAPP claims Anthony Martial is the best 19-year-old he has seen since Barcelona's Lionel Messi.
Martial has made a excellent start to life at Manchester United, scoring four goals in six appearances since arriving on deadline day for £36million from Monaco.
The teenager next comes up against Arsenal, whose's manager Arsene Wenger claims was never seriously interested in the attacker.
And ahead of Sunday's clash, Redknapp has lavished praise on the France international.
He said: "I watched Anthony Martial for 90 minutes in the Champions League and the only 19-year-old I've seen better at that age was Lionel Messi.
"I played against Wayne Rooney when he made his debut but this boy has so much intelligence.
"He knows when to pass, when to cross it, when to dribble and when to shoot. He goes past people like they're not there.
"Everything he does, there is a reason behind it.
"It's like he's been here before - certain players have this, you can't put your finger on what it is, but it's just a quality.
"I love watching him play. He's going to be a superstar."
