Manchester United fans were wowed by Antony's tricks and skills on his debut but Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher were far less impressed. Not that it bothers the Brazilian any.
After a summer of chasing, United finally managed to break Ajax's resolve towards the end of the transfer window and sign top attacking target Antony for an initial £85million. The thrilling winger got straight to work in justifying his massive fee as he bagged the opener in the 3-1 victory over Arsenal last weekend, coolly dispatching Marcus Rashford's pass into the far bottom corner.
Despite the promising start, however, Antony came in for some criticism due to his showboating antics as well. Earlier in the game, the 22-year-old received the ball on the right side of the pitch and faced up his opponent Aleks Zinchenko. Anthony's feet then became a whirlwind around the ball as he aimed to trick the defender but ultimately he didn't attempt to go past him, instead passing back away from the goal to a teammate.
