It’s a cruel way for Antony’s debut season to end, if his injury is indeed deemed serious. That seemed to be the general consensus when he went down in agony following Trevoh Chalobah’s tackle in Manchester United’s 4-1 win over Chelsea on Thursday.
He was distraught when taken off on a stretcher before the clock ticked 30. Erik ten Hag was equally as concerned, saying that he would be assessed but the picture didn’t look good. It’s probable he will miss next week’s FA Cup final with Manchester City.
The question then turns to who fills the void for both that game but firstly, against Fulham this afternoon. The majority of Marcus Rashford’s 30 goals this season have come when he has played on the left wing.
