Manchester United icon Rio Ferdinand has urged winger Antony to elevate his performance for the club. Ferdinand made this plea while expressing empathy for Manchester United fans who voiced their disappointment with Antony during their 1-0 Premier League victory over Fulham last Saturday.
In that match, a last-minute goal by Bruno Fernandes secured all three points for Erik ten Hag’s team. However, Antony’s contribution on the wing was notably lacking, leading to his substitution just after the hour mark.
As he made his way to the dugout, the Brazilian winger faced jeers from his own supporters. To date, he has not scored a goal or provided an assist for the Red Devils this season.

Ferdinand, speaking on TNT Sports, remarked, “You could sense the frustration, not to mention hear it. He’s played 11 games this season without scoring a goal or registering an assist, which is subpar for an attacking player. These are the facts. He must make significant improvements.”
