Rio Ferdinand has called out Antony for his “concerning” inability to beat players after Manchester United were defeated by Arsenal.
Eddie Nketiah scored a 90th-minute winner to down Erik ten Hag’s side 3-2 after an enthralling game in north London. Marcus Rashford and Lisandro Martinez scored for the away side, but Nketiah’s brace and Bukayo Saka ’s strike won it for the Gunners.
Antony had little influence on the game and was substituted in the 71st minute, with Ten Hag taking the winger off for the defensively-minded Fred. He completed three of his five attempted dribbles in the past – including one past Ben White – but Ferdinand took aim at the £85.5million summer signing for his lack of ambition on the ball.
