Manchester United legend Gary Neville feels that the price tag for youngster Anthony Martial is big, but he also believes that the youngster needs to be given a chance to prove his worth at Old Trafford.
The 19-year-old moved to Manchester United hours before the transfer window closed today, joining for a fee of £36m, thus becoming the Premier League giants' record signing of the summer.
The 19-year-old progressed through Lyon's academy before joining fellow Ligue 1 outfit Monaco in 2013.
And during his two-year stay at the club, the striker managed a total of 70 appearances for the French giants, scoring 15 goals and also provided his team-mates with eight assists.
Speaking about his former club's latest acquisition, Neville insisted that the price involved might be big, but that is not the youngster's fault.

The 40-year-old is optimistic about seeing the goods from Martial soon as he prepares to provide options to manager Louis van Gaal up front.
"The price for Martial is big", Neville wrote via his official Twitter account.
"However, it's not the boys fault and I happen to think he's a very good player. Needs a chance. He's young."
