'A lot to do' - Gary Neville sends message to Manchester United ace Antony amid Pogba comparison

United announced that they had completed the signing of long-term target Antony on transfer deadline day this summer. The Brazilian hit the ground running, scoring on his debut against Arsenal in a 3-1 win at Old Trafford.

The 22-year-old then went on to score in successive matches for Erik ten Hag's side, with strikes against Manchester City and Everton. However, Antony has failed to find the back of the net for United since his goal at Goodison Park in October in what has been a concerning dip in form.
