Manchester United's new signing Antony was accused of overlooking his defensive duties by boss Erik ten Hag in Sunday's Manchester derby, according to reports.
The £86m forward was said to have ignored instructions at the Etihad, specifically in terms of contributing to the team without the ball. The Brazilian, who became Manchester United's second most expensive player in history in the summer, has worked with Ten Hag previously at Ajax, yet despite this existing relationship, he ignored pre-match orders to help right-back Diogo Dalot defensively.
Although Antony grabbed himself a goal with a stunning strike when United already trailed 4-0, his teammate Dalot endured an incredibly tough afternoon coming up against the likes of Jack Grealish and Bernardo Silva.
