Erik ten Hag has backed Antony to turn his fortunes around at Manchester United, despite the winger's poor performance in their 3-0 Carabao Cup defeat to Newcastle United. The €100 million transfer fee signing has been unable to live up to expectations since his move from Ajax 14 months ago, and criticism has been mounting due to his lack of output.
Speaking in the Sky Sports studio prior to the game, Andy Cole expressed his dissatisfaction with the Brazilian, saying his performance would "drive me absolutely mad" if they were in the same team. Ten Hag, however, insisted that Antony is a "fighter" and has the confidence to bounce back, claiming that the team's poor performance is partly to blame.
The Manchester United manager also backed himself to improve the situation, admitting that the team's standards have not been up to par and that he is accountable for their lack of success. He confidently stated that he is a "fighter" and is committed to helping the team get better results. Ten Hag declared that there is no room for excuses and that the team must take responsibility and raise their standards in order to achieve the desired results.
