He has a very good left foot , is quick, isn’t a wimp and loves to drive forward and attack. Give him time to settle in, new country , culture language etc. then give him time to develop.

Personally I think he has player well for us this season. I think there is much more space for him to go, that’s a good a thing but come on, you can’t start garnacho ahead of him

Where did I wrote antony off


Garnacho is better than him though. Its not even than close.

If antony were the youth product and Garnacho the 100m signing this wouldn't even be a discussion.

I think Antony will be a different animal by March/April.

This guy

Antony simply can't score the goal garnacho did against Fulham. He's not fast enough or direct enough.

Any evidence of this?

Any evidence that Garnacho can score the goal Antony did at the Etihad, for instance?

Or are you taking 2 players at vastly different points of their careers and comparing and deciding the one you like most is better?

This antony display at the etihad is going to go down in folklore like the beek motm display against Watford.

Run at pace and side foot into the corner? I think he can.

Bit more to the goal than that. You should watch it back.

Suitably pathetic response.

Predicted Manchester United XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Casemiro, Eriksen; Antony, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial.

I never said there wasn’t, but I’m still failing to see what Garnacho exhibited that you think Antony couldn’t.

Did you see his goal at Everton? Quite fast and direct.

That back 4 is terrifying though

Love the Matthew Hopkins pic

Mr Witchfinder

De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw…

£#%&!ing hell doesn’t matter how much we £#%&!ing spend we end up with the same £#%&!ing shit@#%&!s starting

Rumours:

Antony, rashford and martial start.

Plus a ‘surprise’ at the back …. (Varane)

We should eviscerate them 5 nil, they’re utterly shit & incoherent - pace and quick, decisive passing.

Martial brace, one a lovely dink. Incoming.

Great minds think alike pal. Two goals incoming for our French maestro

Yeah that 'should' is doing some heavy lifting there.

Manchester United have pretty much been the poster boys for chronic underachievement for the last 10 years now, with their party piece being making hopeless dogshit sides look miles better than they are.
