Deserves a start at this point. Not because of himself but as much because of how poor others are. Think he links well with amad too
 
Find it very strange that he gets minutes at RWB, my understanding of Amorim's system is he uses the wing backs for width which would mean you would want a right footer on the right and left on the left so that they can go outside and get a cross in but he regularly has put Dalot on the left (Right footed) and Antony on the right (Left footed) and the amount of times they are getting done on their outside and the amount that when they have the ball it's congesting the midfield seems a strange move to me, what am I missing?

Feels like that's the case with every player at the minute. Our squad is so poor that every time one player gets left out there's a clamour to bring them back as the starting players were so bad
 
I’ve liked every cameo under Amorim tbh

Same to be honest. Hope he brings back some of the guile and trickerts he had at Ajax. The entire team is playing with such little confidence, would be nice to see the lads trying some tricks/stepovers etc again !

I can see why none of them want to try anything though, with millions of people lining up to criticize if they do a David Dunn on it

He doesn’t always to have right footed on the right and left footed on the left. In sporting, Quenda is a left footed winger used as RWB by Amorim this season. Amorim also played Geny Catamo a left footed winger as RWB last season.
 
He's terrible and should be sold. Utd can find a better player to replace him.

Good luck selling him. For a moment, I did wonder whether he might find a home in this Amorim system but given the lack of game time, it's pretty clear that Amorim doesn't rate him (perhaps he hasn't been training well?)

It's been a bit strange, seeing as we've played some of our best stuff under Amorim with both him and Amad on the pitch playing off each other on the right.

Maybe it's just a case of wanting to go with the five defenders against the tough opposition we've played lately, but I'd hope we'd have one of Amad/Antony/Garnacho in one of the WB spots tonight.

Ten Hag will never be able to shake this transfer, it will haunt him wherever he goes. Someone should waterboard him until he confesses to what he actually saw in Antony that made him think he would be a good player, but then again, this is the same guy who signed Malacia because Antony couldn't beat him all game in 1 vs 1...

TBH today's game is a perfect opportunity to try Antony or maybe Garnacho as the RWB and give Maz a rest, Dalot is suspended anyway so I'm guessing Malacia will start
 
Thought that he didn't perform horribly under Amorim. In some games he looked even useful.

This is kinda bizarre that he seems like frozen out.

Has he not done that to himself? Ten Hag was playing him despite how poor he was because he signed him for £90m, that can't be good for team morale. New manager coming in with players that aren't his has the luxury of picking players based on merit. He'll have to move mountains to get a run of games, or at least beat a man on the byline.

But he did look pretty useful under Amorim. And we don't have big squad to choose anyway. Dalot didn't perform well, but keep getting a run. Zirkzee, Hojlund, and awful Rashford had a run of games already.


Training must be awful.

It must be extremely awful.
 
He's honestly the most infuriating player to watch. He gets into good positions, he stretches the play, is willing to take on his man. But... He makes so many bad decisions and is ridiculous to watch at times. He falls over more than Holjund which is saying something
 
This miss is as bad as it gets.
ETH made us spend 85 million on this League 2 player.
Speechless.
 
Shocking miss, otherwise did ok but I dunno why he was in the 10 spot with Amad at RWB rather than the other way around.
 
Poor miss, but not sure what he's meant to do different whilst already sliding in. Seems like the ball was just a bit behind for him, there wasnt much he could have done.

He has scored this same goal for us before, it doesn't mean anything.

Thought he added some balance and work rate to the team, added with some dumb moments too.
 
Laughable. Not only the miss, but when he's facing a defender, thinking to himself which way shall I go past him, I think to myself, you just are not capable and are way more likely to fall over the ball than get past the defender.
 
Yeah, I can't defend this one. He did nothing and offered nothing when he came on. He's worse than all of our other wide options. A shocking amount of money on a crap player.

He shouldn't slide, there was absolutely no need to go to ground.
 
Shocking player. Taking away the open goal miss, which could happen to better players, he brings absolutely nothing to the team. His one and only trick of coming in off the right and bending it in to the far post has been taken away by playing him as one of the 2x 10's. 85 million down the drain on a fecking fidget spinner.
 
It's crazy to imagine what kind of players we could have signed for the money this lad cost us.
 
Everyone involved with this transfer should be subject to a criminal fraud inquiry
 
The Miss was criminal, no idea what he was doing. Seemed to go completely invisible for 10 minutes or so afterwards too, probably shot his confidence further but we needed players to step up not to hiding.
 
Antony cost this club £86 million. 86 million of the King's f'n pounds sterling. When we already had Amad on the books. I'll leave it at that.

The ball just about passes two defenders, it seems like he didn't expect it to arrive to him and he reacts at the last moment to slide it in. The ball had decent speed on it too.

A great ball from Garnacho actually.
 
I'm just glad we won and I don't have to start typing things I'd regret about Antony. Shocking miss. Even for him, that's a shocking miss. Thanks for the goals against Barca and Liverpool Antony, but you aren't PL level.
