Former Manchester United midfielder Gordon Strachan said Antony's performances remind him of Cristiano Ronaldo's during his early days at at the club.
The summer signing has scored ten goals and assisted a further four for teammates across 40 appearances during his debut season at Old Trafford. But Strachan, who played over 200 matches for United in the 1980s, is still to be impressed.
Antony has caught the eye with several pieces of skill this season, as Ronaldo often did during that first spell at the club. Equally, the Brazil international has been lacking in end product on occasions.
