ANTHONY MARTIAL has revealed the secret to his ice cool finishing.
The Manchester United striker, who joined from Monaco on deadline, has whipped up a storm already.
He scored on his debut against Liverpool - the goal he believes is his best yet - and has become a key part of United's attack.
His injury from Wembley, where he left on crutches after France's 2-0 defeat to England, has left United in trouble up top.
Wayne Rooney is also out meaning United have no recognised first team striker fully fit.
But Martial, who has scored five times for United already, should be fit for next week's PSV clash.
And, speaking in an interview with Footlocker, he poured his sole out on what it took to get to where he is now.
"When I get onto the pitch, I block out everything around it and I really focus on the pitch," Martial said. "It’s like the stadium is empty and I’m really focused on my team and the opposing team.

"I've always wanted to be a footballer. I never thought of doing anything else and it's what I've always wanted to do since I was little, so I'm very happy.
"I remember my very first training session. It was raining hard. It was cold and I went home. I couldn't train.
"I stayed for ten minutes then told my dad to take me home.

The best thing about playing football is making fans happy. The supporters help us a lot out on the pitch.
"The atmosphere at Old Trafford is really unique and when you’re a bit tired, they really help you, they shout out your name and that gives you extra energy. It is also because of them that I’ve adapted easily to Manchester."
He added: "I think the greatest goal I've ever scored is the one against Liverpool. It was amazing for me and it really made my name in the Manchester team.
"Greatness for me is the ability to focus under pressure."
