Antony quickly adopts Man Utd dressing room role previously held by Cristiano Ronaldo

The Brazil international, 22, completed a transfer to Old Trafford on deadline day and has settled in quickly, scoring on his Premier League debut against Arsenal earlier this month in a 3-1 win. Antony played under Erik ten Hag at Ajax, winning two Eredivisie titles.
