Hmm from what I've seen of him I haven't been that impressed. Not great figures and then if you watch his goals/assists a lot of it is due to poor defending.I would have no issues with us spending £60m on Antony. I honestly believe he'd be our most exciting winger. I think his numbers will improve but the most important thing he provides is a threat to the opposition and a function for the system which has enabled Ajax to score a lot of goals both domestically and in the Champions league. He's also programmed to help defensively and plays with a intensity that seems to come naturally to him. He's also physically strong for his size and I'd like to see a player with his high potential arrive at United.

Not really fast, doesn't dibble past players easily.. His best attributes are good close control and a good pass, not too dissimilar to Sancho. I'd rather just play Sancho there.
For example Mahrez was a player I really thought could solve our RW hole in 2018, but Jose / United weren't interested. He was faster, a better dribbler and had a better final ball.
