Paul Scholes may go on to be proved right that Manchester United have bought a one-trick pony in Antony, but that doesn't matter if the trick is quite a good one.
Erik ten Hag would have known better than anyone else the type of player that United were signing when he sanctioned a move for Antony. The duo spent two years together at Ajax, winning the Eredivisie in both seasons.
The Brazilian winger scored 22 goals and provided 20 assists across all competitions during the two campaigns he had in the Netherlands. During his time in Amsterdam, Antony featured on the right-wing and demonstrated an exceptional level of close control.
