Erik ten Hag sends message to Man Utd star ahead of derby
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has said that he wants more of the same from Antony ahead of the Premier League clash against Liverpool at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils take on their arch-rivals at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon and they need a victory to stay alive in the Champions League race.
Ahead of the game, Ten Hag personally spoke to MUTV and one of the questions was on Antony, who had a good outing at Stamford Bridge in midweek.
Despite United suffering a shock 4-3 loss, Antony was one of the best performers alongside Alejandro Garnacho . It was his best game of the campaign.
Ten Hag said: "I know he’s capable of it. I’ve seen it so often, when I was manager of Ajax, but we haven’t seen this. Yesterday night, I saw the Antony I want to see."
Antony has yet to score in the Premier League this term, but he opened his assist account against Chelsea . He delivered a fantastic trivela assist for Garnacho's second goal.
