‘He's not fit for the Premier League,’ Owen went on a dense criticism of Antony

Against the backdrop of poor play and ultra-low performance, Manchester United winger Antony is receiving more and more criticism. Former players of the Red Devils are not shy of questioning the Brazilian's fitness.

Details: Thus, ex-Manchester United forward Michael Owen believes that Antony is not suitable not only for Erik ten Hag's team, but also for the English Premier League in principle, saying that his feints on the pitch should be backed up by speed, which the Brazilian does not have.

Quote, ‘I haven't seen enough positive play from Antony in his entire time in the team to justify him playing in every game for Manchester United. Obviously he's a very talented lad and they paid a huge amount of money for him.

So they will be desperate to get him in the mood to be happy and play. I just don't see his qualities being suited to the Premier League. I don't think he's quick enough. When he does the trick, I don't think he has that burst and that speed to get away from the defender,’ Owen said for Metro.

Reminder: Earlier, English football legends criticised not only ten Hag's charges, but also himself, questioning the rationale behind some of the Dutchman's decisions.
