Pretty much what Amorim hinted to when asked about Antonys form in La Liga.La liga suits him, the relative explosiveness of the premiership doesn't nearly as much.
He's also just happier having left the club. Happier players perform better. Manchester can be miserable for someone who grew up sunny. Wouldn't normally matter but when you're feeling bad those things add on to it.Yes the EPL may be of higher quality across the board or demand greater physicality but Antony’s positive performances are also because he is playing under a more solid footballing structure both on and off the pitch. We tend to ruin players once we get them.
100%. You’ve summed it up well. It’s really an entire array of factors and the entire vibe at the club is as you say off. In many ways I’m really glad he is doing better at Betis. He always gave 100% on the pitch even if the performances were lacklustre.He's also just happier having left the club. Happier players perform better.

The media is terrible for you if you're a Manchester United player. It's not bad for you if you play for any other club in the country.
People around him are being fired. A person he used to see maybe every day coming into work isn't there anymore. Some footballers are heartless millionaires or just so stuck up their own arse that they don't care but he might.
Lastly the team is performing horribly and he can't even get a start. That weighs on the confident a lot in a downward spiral kind of way.
Lots of reasons that can drag a United player down and if they tick too many of those boxes then we end up with a bad team and he was partly a reason for us being a bad team because he couldn't rise above it.
And the Brazilian police investigated those claims and found there was nothing thereI mean he was accused of assaulting his former girlfriend. I want Antony to do well on his loan too (so we can sell him), but it could be he's a much worse person than most of the "divas" we'd had to suffer from.
Not quite. They found there wasn't enough to bring charges against him.And the Brazilian police investigated those claims and found there was nothing there
