Those are not even close to outstanding numbers in the Eredivisie. What an embarrassment.

I actually think he was alright today. Just park the price tag, he did well enough for us in this outing.

He played really well in the first half, a bit quieter in the second but for the time he was on we struggled to get much of the ball.

Good performance. Our best bits of play came from him, Dalot and Bruno down the right hand side.

Hopefully he's on his way to getting out of the shit form he's been in all season. Looked to be playing with a bit of confidence today.

Zero penetration as per but does link well and works very hard. He needs a flying RB and forwards making runs into the box he can pick out with passes otherwise he's useless. Was fine today

Do we really need to bring Haller to this team for him to start doing any magic ? It's absurd.

OK today, but he's under scrutiny, so needs to be better. If he scores that shot that hits the bar, the narrative completely changes about his performance.

£80m for Antony. You just have to laugh.

Ya he’s been shit this season but wouldn’t criticise him today. Decent performance . Rashford & Garnacho were worse

You just can’t rely on him as an attacker. He’s a good footballer who keeps the ball well and can progress it but he offers pretty much 0 threat. Unfortunately I can’t see him being effective in any other position either.

Exactly, if that flies in, I think we're talking about this performance in a far different light.
No, we are slaughtering him for being average but scoring a wonder goal. Matty Taylor used to bang in long ranger a season for Portsmouth. Didn't make him Man Utd quality.

We know Antony is capable from range. But sadly, at the level we want to return to, we need more than what he can offer.

That’s a terrible analogy. Partly because it wouldn’t have been a wonder goal anyway but mainly because his overall performance was decent. A big improvement on recent games where he’s really been in bad form.

On the spectrum of Antony performances, that was alright I suppose.

It's very much a shit spectrum though.
He is utterly awful, awful going forward and contributing in the attack. 0/10 ( minus marks not allowed)

He is more than decent at tracking back and helping out. 7/10 at least.

Such a shame that early goal didn't go in. He needed that, and it was just bad luck.

The performance as a whole doesn't change much. He works hard tracking back, but when that is most positive thing you can say about our £80m forward, things are pretty dire. There was a few times when he tried to dribble past players with pace and he sort of loses balance and stumbles over his own feet, which is kind of funny. He was nowhere near able to actually goes past a Nottingham Forest defender.

The better he plays, the better for us. We gotta sell him in summer, no questions.

Yeah if he was a fullback I could understand the praise he gets for that performance, but as a winger he was really below any kind of United standard.

Needs to follow Ten Hag out the door immediately. He is a league one player at his best. Comes on loses the ball every single time he has it. He is longing straight across the line and still runs offside.

This is every performance from him.

He’s absolute shite, shouldn’t even get anymore chances as it’s a complete waste of everyone’s time. Have to hope he can have a decent loan spell wherever he is next season so there is at least slight possibility of him being sold at some point.

Just put him down. He's Rooney in his last year's levels of bad.

At his very best, he's invisible. At his worst, he's abysmal. 100% needs to be shifted on in the summer - and we are just going to have to stomach the inevitable loss in terms of money. What a disappointment. Such a poor signing.

Smile, thumbs up at team mate, more smiles, loses the ball, thumbs up, smile again, backwards pass.

Remember lads, the manager who is on millions of pounds per annum says and I quote:

"I know from the past he is unstoppable, no defender can stop him because he's one of the quickest in the first 10 yards...
Don't ever feel imposter syndrome will you.
