Antony played well tonight
Whatā€™s with the hate and agenda?

Antony is good and always plays well.
Recency bias and humans, being insatiable is the problem here.
Antony has improved that wing so much that people want more.

Does anyone remember how terrible that wing was before Antony started playing for Man U?

Can you remember any quality chance Antony has created since August last year? I'm sure you won't think too deep if I'm asking same for Garnacho

It's just that arsenal defence was already ready for Rashford since he was the only attacking threat (unlike first leg)

Didn't you see how the Trivela pass caused Chaos that almost caused penalty

why does arsenal play differently away from home? When they play at the emirates, they play the best of football. But when they go away wearing black on black or white on black as the case may be, they play as if they are the underdogs to beat. Conceding goals aplenty. This is been happening since the wenger era

The human brain is tricky. Once you dislike someone, you will only see what he did wrong. The same happens when you like someone. šŸ˜’

Yesterday who shot the ball that Weghorst tapped-in for his goal?
What of the pass Antony gave Weghorst and he missed?

Do you know how many chances Garnacho misses just because most times he chooses to go forward instead of passing backwards?

ETH favors playing from the back, that is why he bought Antony. Antony will always go backwards, that does not mean he is not playing that position well.

All that being said, I also want him to try beating opponents, but that is not his style of play for now.
Simply because he is not as aggressive as Ganarcho upfront does not mean he is a bad player.

Let me ask you, if you remove Antony, who in current Man U's squad can replace him?

Main24. This isnā€™t hate. Antony should be delivering better results for Utd.

Most of our chances yesterday fell to him- including one big chance, and he didnā€™t score one goal. If Martial was on the pitch instead of Weghorst, we wouldnā€™t have scored that second goal.

Learn to differentiate hate from criticism.

If you say better results I agree with you.
Every Man U player should do better. Coming here to pick on a player is what I am against.

Weghorst? did you see the pass Antony gave to him and he missed?
We can argue both ways whether Weghorst is good or not. I have not seen any brilliant plays from him.

Now does that mean he is a bad player? No.

In the game against Arsenal, most people were saying he didn't play anything...I didn't see him either.
Now remember the human brain is tricky šŸ˜. He probably did well, but I just didn't see it.

Yet, I won't pick on him because all Man U players needs to deliver better.

If you remove Weghorst, who can do better there?
Not to mention, he is doing better than me that ones to criticize him. šŸ¤£

In summary; because I expect someone to do better and he doesn't does not make him a bad player especially when he is doing better than me.

Believe me, I can see limitations in Weghorstā€™s game. There are things he does for us exceedingly well at the moment (holdup, link up and team play) better than any striker we have.

But if he gets clear chances and doesnā€™t score, we will criticize him for it if it goes on for too long.

Antonyā€™s uselessness is going on for too long. Unless he improves, I donā€™t see the criticism stopping. Heā€™s been in the team for longer. He should be playing better.

Relax, Weghorst has only played 2 or so games...time will tell where he goes from here. I wish him all the best.

As for Antony, nah it's just an agenda bro. That guy is taking care of that position so well for Man U.
Aside Rashford, Martinez, Case, Varane, every other Man U player right now is on the same level.
They are doing the basics. Pick on all of them. No agendas bro grin

Anyways this is my thought though, what do I know?! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£

Antony defends better than Rashford. He presses better too. But his attacking game is a lil bit below Rashford and his goal contribution is miles off.

The annoying thing is that he has everything to get to that level.

There were several instances yesterday where he couldā€™ve gotten an assist, or scored, or created a big chance.

Can you believe we didnā€™t score or create a chance from this instance? (Attached Pic)

You can say all you want to say about antony, most here would support you, but you can never shiite on his defensive work, that being said, antony is not a player best suited for counter attacks, you want the best for him, you make the players around him tick, his wing back, the nearest central midfielder must be always alert to receive passes (mostly short) and also to swap positions with him

Yesterday was probably the best I've seen him being a constant threat against the opponent backline, the problem we have with him is the same we had with van de beek, and guess what that's the style we're gradually going to turn to by the time we fully grasp ETH style

Short/direct passes, constantll movement, hold up/link up, counter press, pinning of opposition into their half, you'll see when he gets the new central midfielder and deep lying playmaker he wants

That's why he keeps playing eriksen, because has the quality to do what he wants, he's just not aggressive enough

Antony will get better and I see amad slotting in perfectly also(he plays similarly to antony, he's just more direct than him)

Antony is still our best option on that right side for the next few games IMO.

Pellistri is not there yet and we canā€™t play any other person there.

Plus heā€™s the only left footed right winger we have. So his ceiling is very high when compared with other options.

Itā€™s just annoying that heā€™s underwhelming.

Yea, I believe once we get a better option, he will be forced to step up or step down. grin

You see Malacia and Luke Shaw?

You know Rashford can never defend, lol...
Players that build their edge on speed rarely do anything but wait for their moment to sprint. šŸ¤£
Mbappe and Rashford have that in common.
I believe that is why ETH brought Weghorst to do that work for him, since Martial can't also do that.

Bruno has decided not to leave that bar he set.
If Bruno just becomes a little bit more precise in his passes, his conversion rate will skyrocket. He will be in a different dimension. grin

What are you defending?

If you say give him time I'll agree, but why are you trying to paint him like he's been doing his job.
