The thing about the transfer fee, is that people blame Antony for it, instead of Man United who payed for it

Ten Hag certainly takes some of the blame, but (as usual), so does United's recruitment team. Antony was available for about £50m in June, but United said no and panicked after they lost 4-0 to Brentford, then went and spent almost double that on him because they were desperate and gullible.

I'm from Brasil, from the same city Antony was born, Osasco. NEVER, EVER have i seen him display something that justified a 30m transfer fee.. imagine 100m!! He played in a rival of the team i support and i never got worried when he got the ball (he scored only 4 goals here). It is literally the most outrageous transfer i have ever seen, easily

I'm a Sao Paulo fan and when we sold him to Ajax I couldn't have been happier. He could dribble but he would always waste possession by trying to shoot from anywhere after dribbling

The fact that harry maguire has same amount goal contributions than Anthony as a cb speaks volumes on how invisible he has been this season

Remember when people called him underrated 💀

The thing that annoys me most about Antony is that he doesn't seem to like criticism, instead of listening to the experts like Keane and Neville he'll talk on social media and keep doing the same thing. You don't win games by doing flicks and tricks like he does.

just a reminder you sold us elanga who has 10 goals and assists this season so far for 15m.

Its insane how a player like antony always gets a chance and players like sancho or ronaldo only had one chance with ten haag

I only watched the first 5 matches played by Antony to recognise his skills and football artistry, but also is self-pride and cockiness. Not ready to adjust his game to Premier League style was his undoing.

He'll be in the Lithuanian A Lyga in 6 years.

To put antony's numbers into context: he has 1 goal and 1 assist in 25 matches. Thomas Ouwejan (the Schalke left back) has 2 goals and 5 assists in 17 matches. I rest my case

As an arsenal fan i have to thank this guy for making our Pepe transfer look less shit

I felt like Ajax downfall was a karma for scamming United 💀 Edit: Antony scored the equalizer against Liverpool and United won the game. We can't slander him as much now

The nicest thing I can say about Antony is that he retroactively makes Nicolás Pepe look like a decent and above-board deal with reasonable return on investment.

connor bradley of liverpool had 1 goal and 1 assist in his debut... He's a right wing back...

Seeing Antony, I cannot fathom how Arjen Robben made himself a very decorated career by just cutting in on his left foot and shooting. He was predictable too, but he was unstoppable.

Can't beat your man, beat your missus instead - Antony probably

Ngl I thought he was gonna cook in united when he scored that goal vs man city

the fact that Antony scored in the FA Cup against a Championship oder Ligue One (i dont remember) and assisted shows his game is only effective against bad defenders. But then its really good somehow lol

I always sell him when I start a new career on FM. As a united fan we waste money on players that aren't worth it. Antony, Mason Mount... the list goes on and on.

Matt Ritchie is a 34 year old winger we signed under Rafa in the championship, he's barely featured this season for us even with our nightmare injury list... And he *STILL* has more goals and assist than Antony this season 🙃

Oi Vizeh. I've been really enjoying your content since two, three years ago. I really want to thank you for making these videos about football as a sport generally. As a person living in South Korea and probably one of your few Asian audiences, you've really helped me keep up with the footballing culture in England. But I have to ask for you to make a video essay on Jurgen Klinsman. He was sacked by the South Korean FA a mere 3 days ago, and he was only 11 months into his South Korean manager tenure. His incompetence caused the South Korean national team, possibly the strongest in all of Asia, to get knocked out of the AFC Asian cup in embarassing fashion in the quarter finals. It may be a good result for south Korea, but Klinsman was completely neglective of the national team, and only relied on the star players to get results without giving any tactical advice. Not to mention he spent HALF OF HIS TENURE OF KOREAN NATIONAL TEAM MANAGER IN THE US OF A. IS HE TAKING A GOD DAMN PISS. The South Korean FA sacked him a few days ago, but thanks to him the national team's ego and the player's overall morale has taken a huge hit. The South Korean football fans are absolutely enraged about the FA's decision in the first place to promote Klinsmann as their head coach. He was inconsistent in Bayern Munich and Schalke. I know that it may be a big leap for you to focus on issues outside of European football, but I can't and don't want this issue to be contained just inside Korea. I want the issue to be spread world wide. So it would be great if you could do a video essay about Jurgen's horrendous south korean tenure. Thanks a lot for the great content you make man. keep it up.

To his defense, I think he's been made a target by the media/fans and it seems to have really affected him. As an Ajax fan, I can tell you that there is a player in there, but he can't catch a break even from toxic United fans. I hardly see the same level hate for someone like Mykhailo Mudryk who cost exactly the same, is the same age and has performed equally as poor.

You may think that your views are mostly from the UK but I'm all the way from Jordan and can't feel happier when I see a new video so keep it up bro✊💪

People saying that he was available for 50M. I don't think he's worth even half of that.

Not having ETH is the problem regarding fees…there is always an Utd tax. Been going on for years, board have spent money but nearly always poorly

Don't worry, he can spin that's very valuable, nobody esle can spin like him

The Twitter account that does the 'things that cost less than Antony ' is jokes 😂

Leon Bailey or Diaby is who ManU should’ve bought instead of

What you can buy with 86 million pounds in the year 2009: Prime Kaka, Thierry Henry, Robin Van Persie, Sergio Ramos and many others What you can buy with the same amount of money in the year 2021-2022 : Mudryk and Antony 🤦‍♂️

I agree …..very much.

I think it’s just another example of how big fees don’t always translate into success and smart effective low cost signings like garnacho are proving to be a better model for some big six clubs rather than the classic shove 50 mil down a clubs throat

I've just realised that Antony is just Erik Lamela without the passing vision

I don’t know how United fans defend Ten Hag

Keep going bro you will get 1 million subs soon ❤

Seeing that top 5 transfer list for united is devastating

Love your vids mate, but your audio needs some work. It's not that loud, and i'm 100% on my laptop

What is so frustrating (and probably doesn't help his case) is that he genuinely works hard, unlike the more sulky inconsistent players like Rashford and Bruno. The fact that this still is nowhere near good enough for most top half premier league teams let alone Man United just shows the ineptitude of the scouting and negotiating departments of the club that will hopefully change under INEOS

I honestly want to see ten hag try him at outside back with all the injuries they’re having because he actually defends pretty well he’s decently pacey and has quick feet

We have to try to put him at left back so he doesnt dribble

As a sao paulo fan i say antony was mid in sao paulo and was not that good but somehow he got to europe and when he was on ajax he was the best player of eredivise doing goals assist and helping alot the team but when he got to man united he got alot of poblems on his outfield life and also ten hag playstyle did not fit with him but rlly i hope he goes back to brasil or manchester united loan him to another team to he get better bcuz i rlly hope just like richarlison he can play in a good level again

The only reason he got a chance is due to his nationality. There are better players all over the world

Antony is like one of those players Kompany signs to be on the roster but never play.

As an Arsenal supporter, when I see Antony play, I get really strong Nicolas Pepé flashbacks. Partly because the transfer fee was absurdly high, partly because you can see what their main problem is - they are not used to playing against decent defenders. As for the transfer fee - we know that our former sporting director (ex-Barcelona Raul Sanllehi) signed Pepe and he actually somehow got part of the transfer fee as a consultant fee - when Arsenal got wind of this, they fired him immediately. Everyone could see that he was not worth 72 million pounds, even Lille who asked for a smaller price, but Sanllehi insisted on paying a greater fee knowing he would pocket a couple of millions afterwards as a consultant. I hope this did not happen in the case of Antony and the sporting dir. of ManU. As for these players' ability to dribble past opponents - Pepé was used to the French league and believe me - PL defenders are much, much better in every way than those guys over in France, especially the smaller teams. It was much easier for Pepé to do a trick, a feint, or just go past them with the ball. Same goes for Antony who could be king in the Netherlands, playing against the smaller clubs and their defenders. But the PL ain't the Eredivisie and he simply cannot seem to be able change his game against people who can actually defend really well. To summarise: Pepe was a decent 20-25 mil player who could have been an FA Cup / Europa League mainstay player but probably not the star player everyone expected him to be - based on the transfer fee which was not really his fault to be honest. Antony in reality would have been worth around 25-30 mil but he had had 1 (!) very good season and ManU forked out the big wonga for him. If you look at him as a signing for his real value - yeah, he is just about there, nothing special, would star against Championship oppositions in the cup and would (and does) struggle against PL level defenders.

He wasn't the one buying himself. It's not his fault he's not good enough. Besides, ever since Ferguson left only Zlatan was able to not get worse after joining United (and he got injured after a year) and no one improved. No one

Big up Vizeh, really insightful video. Antony is the Brazilian Usain Bolt😂😂🙏

He was good for the first few months at United, but he's been figured out. Now every defender in the league knows he can only use his left foot, which makes him the easiest winger to defend in the league. The problem is his left foot isn't even that good- Arjen Robben was similar, very little right foot to speak of, but his left foot was the best in the world. Antony's left foot is average and his right might as well be amputated. Also his decision making is quite bad, dribbles when he should pass, does a spin when he should run, etc. I don't think he's AS bad as some people say but I think he's not good enough for the prem. This is a united fan, for reference.

The Højlund dig was unnecessary.

MU is the master of buying flop players

As an Ajax fan, Antony was the most entertaining player i have seen over the last years. I think the main issue why he isnt performing well at united, is that the level between the Eredivisie and the Prem is too big. I also think that the playing style of United don’t fits him well.

I knew Antony was horrible when the people defending his performances were praising the fact that as a winger he held width😂😂😂 That’s like praising a Goalkeeper for being in goal

Forest fan here ; Soooo glad that Elanga was allowed to leave so that Antony could come in. Elanga is the fastest player I've ever seen live (been attending since early 1990s) - he still has much to learn, but has a great future - unlike Antony.....who'll probably end up in Turkey next year.

Brazilian coaches calling him to selecao, shows how bad they are.

I think Antony could shine under the right system, in a team thats something like a midtable German or Spanish side. Antony's favourite things are taking on his man, taking him on again cutting in and shooting. Thats nothing like how United would ideally play. If you look at our best attacking performances (Wolves A, Everton A, Aston Villa H etc. ), we always play fast passing counterattacks, which is why Rashford, Hojlund and Garnacho are performing. They have pace, and have good linkup play. They're always thinking about a forward action, while antony always thinks about how to embarrass his man, then turns around, and passes back

6:48 that was more funny then any rights it has to be.😅😅😅

We call him a "floor polisher" in Brazil.

Remember when united had gut to troll nunez for his misses while they had Anthony 😂

I swear to god I need to change my volume settings every time to watch your videos, they're just too low

You should do video on Thomas Tuchel and Bayern. That would make lift us Bayern fans spirits a little bit.

There are multiple goalkeepers with more goal contributions this season then the Brazilian greenwood

If you can only play with your left and try to cut inside, learn from robben. If you can only play with your left, don’t often cut inside and want to support your the team more from the flank, Learn from Gareth Bale. Seeing player like antony makes me aprreciate greath bale more now. His dribbling skill is limited, but that guy nows what to do with the ball. Antony in the other hand is clueless IMO 😅

Vizeh haven’t heard u in a while u sound so much older now😂❤

The ironic thing is that ETH was looking for a player that can run down the wing, sprint into space and beat player… he sold that man to us… Nottingham Forest 😂 elanga is exactly what ETH needed and sold him for 15 mil

Everyone knew Chelsea had to have a fire sale and they still got top dollar for Havertz and Mount.

its worth mentioning that alot of erik's transfers where second choices because the club didn't back ten hag in his requests as much as they should've. Same thing with antony, ten hag wanted him way earlier in the transferperiod, but because it took a shocking performance with sub par players united finaly caved... at the final fking day of the transferwindow while it was very clear by ajax that the later they will buy him the more expensive he will be

I quite literally just cooked 4 Greggs sausage rolls and munching on them now.

I'm truly amazed how Vizeh videos says absolute nothing. Never adds anything new to a discussion, just a repetition of the same things. Football KZfaq is just sad at this point

I bet it must be great to play manager career for Man United, so many players you can just sell without any consequence

In terms of his play it’s poor no question,but he is also been a victim of a transfer fee that he didn’t ask for,women plotting to destroy his career with lies,and playing in a underperforming Manchester United team. He is human so I can imagine that it’s difficult to keep yourself stable mentally and ready to play good football. Players like sancho and Antony are players that need to play in an already functioning team and with ideally players and coaches that they love to be around.

a real fidget spinner would be a better winger

For starters, United themselves valued Antony at £25m. Could have gotten him for slightly more than that but decided to play hardball. As the transfer window wore on, his price went to £50M. United could still have paid a tad more to secure his service but decided to play hardball again because they felt they could have gotten him nearer to his initial value if they had just paid the asking price then. As the transfer window drew to a close, ajax took United for a ride because they knew United was desperate and held for £85M. Not being able to play hardball anymore, United paid up. That's how united paid so much for a circus clown who is more interested in performing monkey tricks (even in training) than actually do what he is paid for. He lacks pace to beat defenders. His dribbling is predictable as everyone knows only one of his feet works. No vision to play the incisive pass. Yes United should bear most of the blame because of their poor transfer decisions. But ETH's insistence on Antony is equally atrocious. To show even poorer judgement, he signed onana & sofyan arambat. Yes, he did sign hojland, but after throwing a tons of darts, one is bound to hit the board.

players get subbed out with 40s left to enjoy the standing ovation from the fans for a stellar performance antony gets subbed in with 40s left to serve as a reminder that, losing 2-1 at home to fulham is not as grim as it seems to add salt to injury

I think a fidget spinner is more consistent than Anthony.

he presses in the front and tracks back even if not playing well in attack its still more than down tools dashford

they need to try antony in midfield, like as a cam

Can't wait for the Getafe loan coming soon

He was subbed in with 30 seconds remaining today 😂😂😂

I didn't see him use his right foot once in all of tjose clips istg😭😭

I'm not a Man United fan, and I'm quite neutral to Ten Haag, but somehow it doesn't make sense to me that he thought Mason Mount was crucial to the team he wanted to build. Man United's recruitment has been tragic for a decade now. It might be time to blame someone else than the manager for it. Even if all of the managers you've had are to blame, surely someone at the club then has to take responsibility for granting so much recruitment power to the managers. It always boils down to the manager in football. If the recruitment is great - amazing, GOAT manager work. If the recruitment is bad - the manager doesn't cut it, I knew it!

As a Newcastle fan, this video has taught me: Antony is as one footed and limited as Miggy Almiron, without the pace. Antony is a knob head. Bruno also grew up poor in Brazil (dad was a taxi driver), but he turned out a nice guy where as Antony, apparently, isn't.

Approved by Ibrahima Konaté ( konatelover )

Put him on the left and Rashford on the right. Then they can actually cross the ball at pace. It's fairly simple. Otherwise you massively limit your attacking options. They can still cut inside.

Mark Goldbridge: "I still think there's a player there

310 days until I give Vizeh a 94/95 season Blackburn Rovers shirt as a nice gift

I didn’t realise August had separate seasons…

My biggest question from this video does ten hag have a Really small head or does Antony have a gigantic head.

I do remember that we could have bought Antony for £40 million if we had gone for him earlier that transfer window

I fully agree with what's said in the video but it then makes me question why is no one talking about Jack Grealish's move to Manchester City - more money were spent on him and the return isn't that much different.

There's been countless high profile signings by United that failed. So when Antony was rumored to be signed, I did not have any opinion. Yet, the fans were really hyped. Like, why dont they learn anything ?

uh oh Anthony about to go on a run XD

I just want to know why he always stops with the ball? Man won't just dribble

I f*king love it when Antony takes shots in matches against my team.

people talk about the price tag while i am thinking about his wages . BRO IS ON 200K WEEK? if he wanted us and ten hag wanted him why would we pay him that much money?? atleast he wouldve been easier to sell but no one is gonna pay him 200k weekly

well I don't wish to talk about him when he's not even playing but yeah I understand

They can try playing him as an outright left winger or as a leftwing back.

He about to drop a Five star next game watch, Vizeh is a jinx

What’s the song playing in the background

He's not a bad player, started really well, scored a few nice goals, give him some time, he'll come good

Luton was way closer than it should’ve been still ain’t convinced by Utd thoroughly believe they will fall of again soon enough
