His antics are just another indication of the erosion of standards this club is suffering from. If you think what he did, after a dog shit performance he put in, needs their head checking. Odious little cnut.

The key word is if he was banging goals. Cantona, Keano, Sparky and others of that ilk were loved because they could also perform at a high level.Whatever happened to "he's a c**t but he's our c**t"
tbh I fear our fans here are being a little too woke.. personally one of the things I love about Utd over the years is that we've always had a few nasty feckers in the team.. what about Cantona's flying kick...
If Antony was banging the goals in, we'd love him
If Rashford showed a similar nasty streak, we'd love him
Show some support - he's one of us (until he's isn't)
He hasn't done anything to be our cnut outside of signing a contract. At the end of the day, the feeling that a player belongs is highly linked to positive shared experiences.Whatever happened to "he's a c**t but he's our c**t"

Watch the first Coventry player who scored his penalty in the shootout. The guy was cupping his ear to the United fans and telling them to pipe down. I have no issues with that, nor do I have any issues with Antony giving some back to the Coventry player. All part of the game.I'm a bit confused, what were they doing to provoke him/the fans? Seems a bit of a strange tweet from Antony to be honest.
The more I see meltdown over it, from our own fans, from pundits, and from opposition players - the more I love it. What utter overreacting, a big collective meltdown over little old Coventry almost winning in the 120th minute. Guess what, he was offside, and they shouldn't have had a 95th minute penalty either. They were all happy acting like tough guys before then and I dont doubt that their fans were doing what opposition fans have done all season. Oh tragedy, the footballer has cupped his ears. Grow up drama queens
It's both poor dribbling and poor decision making.That's because his decision making is bad - I think hes a good dribbler.
I dont think many people are celebrating it though. Not having a meltdown and reading into it as some 'erosion' of the club, isnt the same as celebrating. Maybe some people saw a three second release of tension after a very tense extra time and shootout, with a gesture aimed at players/fans that our manager have said were being provocative. There's been a massive overreaction and people are reading way too much into it. He's clearly a very emotional and reactive player. And once again, it is in the context of this mid table championship team that are supposedly so worthy of respect, behaving like prats themselves.Thing is
If you're gonna be classless in one of the most prestigious and biggest clubs in the world (which is what some people here don't get) at least do it after a good performance.
He has a couple good performances since he arrived for 100M. I can count them with one hand. His G/A are also counted with one hand. Maybe if a firework exploded near my hand, I could still have enough fingers left to count his contributions. He costed 100M. He earns tons of money on a weekly basis.
The standard is so low right now, people here are celebrating what he did against a mid-table championship level team.
If you're gonna be an cvnt, then back it up with your play like Emi Martinez, who is the first that comes to my mind with these stupid things.
He scored a great goal against Liverpool recently.. I dunno.. maybe we should give him a chanceHe hasn't done anything to be our cnut outside of signing a contract. At the end of the day, the feeling that a player belongs is highly linked to positive shared experiences.
If that's the bar to be compared to Cantona then we have hundreds of them. And Antony has all the chances that he can take, until he actually does something meaningful is part of something meaningful he is unlikely to be a fan favorite, that applies to every players.He scored a great goal against Liverpool recently..

Huh, he could have easily had couple of assists. Are you sure you watched the game ?This guy is tragic. What a shite player.
Yes I watched the game. If this is the basis of a player being alright then standards are on the floor.Huh, he could have easily had couple of assists. Are you sure you watched the game ?
Edit: Genuinely surprised by people's reactions here. He was alright and could have had an assist if Garnacho could finish. I certainly didn't think he was terrible.
On the other hand, people calling for Amad to start, he was very quiet today when he came on.
No he was quite good tonight. Not good enough to erase the crap he put in earlier this year, but he's had a couple of decent/good performances lately. I'd like to think fans of the club could ease off a bit.Yes I watched the game. If this is the basis of a player being alright then standards are on the floor.
He passes it back almost every time he has it. Has a few pot shots which are never on target. But sure, let's accept these performances as quite good.No he was quite good tonight.

100% this.He was fine in the first half. Should have gotten an assist at the very least. That being said, he is already one of the most disliked players in the squad so his performance will be rated 'dreadfull' even if it was okay-ish. We all know he isnt worth the money... judge him on his game, not on his price because he will never live up to his price.
Would like to see Amad get a start over him though.
Antony
Little end product despite some reasonable openings. Hooked for Amad in the 56th minute after another harmless performance. Many United fans cheered when he was removed. 4
Harsh. It isnt Antony his fault that Garnacho decided to miss a huge chance that Antony created for him. If Garnacho does what he should do and score, Antony would have an end product today.From the MEN
Ok good.He passes it back almost every time he has it. Has a few pot shots which are never on target. But sure, let's accept these performances as quite good.
