[Music] FR tries his luck and then Anthony fantastic hit from the Brazilian sub and Anthony on debut gives Manchester United a 1-n Advantage Anthony is Unstoppable no Defender I think can stop him because he's one of the quickest players in the first 10 yards [Music] Anthony flop for Manchester United the most expensive mistake in our history the last season before he moved to United was a really good player we have to be honest here he's played 11 games this season zero goals and zero assist from an attacking player that's not good enough I I never
thought he was an 80 mli million pound player when they first bought him get him off the field that was diabolical gets him off the field that's just typical what it is dy's £85 million player that for me is such a worry when I watch him play and what he brings to the team that is terrifying that he thinks he's 85 [Music] million fidget spinner worst signing in football history fake Brazilian these are some of the things that have been said of Anthony since he made his big money move to Manchester United in 2022 and
what's funny is that he actually started out well in England but that seems like a long long time time ago now as he has quickly turned into one of the most unlikable and most unpopular figures at the club and even in the entire league so he is not that guy yet man look at Anthony bro this guy is not good bro he's he's taking my love out of football bro so the question is why do football fans hate Anthony well that's the question I'm here to answer today this is the monster 10 hag and Manchester
United created and you'll see why I say so the truth is we all should have known things would turn out like this when Anthony was trying to force a move away from Ajax I mean most times when players force a big money move they end up being flops you can take coutinho and demele for example who forced moves away from Liverpool and Dortmund respectively and ended up flopping hard at Barcelona but you see Anthony was one of those signings Eric ten Haag insisted upon after he became Man United coach Anthony I know his abilities and
he has great abilities I know from the past he's Unstoppable no Defender I think can stop him because he's one of the quickest players in the first 10 yards I'm sure I'm very confident he will do for the future so the club trusted him and burst 100 million EUR on the Brazilian Winger the third highest fee man united have ever paid for a player and the highest fee that has ever been paid for a player from Ajax or the era deisy in general just 3 days after Anthony signed his Manchester United contract he made his
club and Premier League debut against Arsenal and guess what he scored the opening goal of the game and celebrated by pointing to the badge he looked so fired up and man united fans were convinced they had gotten their Superstar Winger I mean what an impact right he even got a standing ovation from the great Cristiano Ronaldo who was on the bench that day and it would get even better Anthony's second Premier League game came against defending Champions and neighboring Rivals Man City and yes he scored again now that game ended in a six three loss
but Anthony scoring his signature goal from outside the Box against Almighty Man City gave man united fans reason to hope and believe they might not have gotten three points from that Derby but Anthony's curler certainly gave the Red Devils the dopamine rush they needed the next Premier League game was against Everton and Anthony scored yet again that goal made him the first player in man United's history to score in his first three successive Premier League games he had not been in the club up to three full months and he was already breaking records amazing start
and the thing is that he wasn't just scoring goals he was scoring big ones opener against Arsenal equalizer against Everton Derby goal against City nah that was a perfect start to life at a new club by all standards United fans were definitely very happy about the signing the club had made but that happiness slowly began to turn into desperation then impatience anger and now hate walk with me see after that goal against Everton in October 2022 Anthony failed to register a goal or an assist in in the Premier League until April when they played relegation
threatened Nottingham Forest that was six whole months without a goal contribution in the league and The Forest game did not even signal the start of a Resurgence or anything like that because that was where the season ended for him he didn't score again after that game now what got people really angry was how he seemed unbothered by his and the club's bad form for example he had that Europa League game where he did a very needless spin with the ball at his foot and went straight ahead to kick the ball out of play almost immediately
when you're not scoring and the club is not winning games the last thing you should be thinking of is showboating especially when the score line is still nil nil that was when United fans really started becoming impatient with him he's not he's not that good he's not that he only got into the Brazilian squad as well because of that United move I think someone's like oh hello you play for United you're in well done do you not think that we judge him so harshly because United overspent and admitted that they over spent it that was
the problem United said he's not worth 100 million Euros or whatever it was that spin brought him a lot of backlash from fans the media and former players of the club but that was just the beginning I I just don't know what it achieves uh this crowd and me I love a bit of show boy I I love a bit of entertainment but but then at least get the next pass right well yeah does that do anything for anybody does it do anything for himself we have to ask him I don't know what it achieves
ow I like you say the next bit to be fair to him he would go ahead to score Europa League goals against Barcelona and realy Al Bettis which brought his total tally to eight goals in 44 appearances in his first season for Manchester United for 100 million attacking signing that's more than poor so that's already three reasons football fans hate Anthony he has shown to be bad at football he is not giving Returns on a huge investment and on top of all of that he looks like he just doesn't care and just to be clear
things didn't get any better in his second season he scored just three goals in 38 appearances this time which brings his total tally to 11 goals in 82 appearances for the club the same number of goals Harry MaGuire a center back has scored for Man United Anthony went a whole year without scoring at Old Trafford before his FA Cup goal against Liverpool and he nearly went a whole season without scoring a Premier League goal but when he finally scored his first goal of the Season against 19th placed Burnley in gameweek 35 he made sure to
go crazy with his celebrations a goal which took United from 6th to 7th on the Premier League table by the way like brother can you just read the room please and like that wasn't enough after the game we found out that Anthony had apparently been hiring a personal photographer to show up at games just to take pictures of him celebrating after scoring how self-absorbed could one be instead of actually trying to help his team this 100 million euro man was thinking about his Instagram posts what a lad another reason fans are not very fond of
the Brazilian is that sometimes it feels like he has main character syndrome I mean why did he make that that face on the touchline when the coach was bringing him on against Arsenal it's like he was already looking at the headlines after the game and how kids on social media would term it cold well those kids ended up saying it was nothing but cringe and speaking of cringeworthy moments Anthony has a lot of those an overwhelming lot in fact remember when he raised his shirt to reveal a message at the beginning of a game because
he knew he wouldn't score that day cringe remember when he gestured an apology to the Galatasaray fans during a Champions League game like he was trying to get into a h hundred respect moments YouTube video cringe or when he celebrated by cupping his ears to the centry players after he and his teammates had bottled a three-goal lead against the mid-table championship team only beating them on penalties after the tightest offside call overturned caused coventry's winner to be disallowed super cringe there's just absolutely no way you'll see all of this and not understand why Anthony's heavily
disliked by fans and to worsen the case he has an ego on take the Arsenal game at Old Trafford for example with just 3 minutes left on the clock and United 1 M down ten Haag decided to make some tactical changes to try and Salvage something from the game and that involved Anthony moving to left back but he looked like he felt too big to put in a defensive shift something much better players like sacka and Rafia have had to do on a number of occasions it's not like he does so much when he plays
up front anyway he can't score can't assist and can't even beat his man in a 1 V one situation but he thinks he's too good to play at left back this lad might need some deep introspection and his off- the- pitch drama has not helped his rep at all remember he was accused of domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend in 2023 that even led to Brazil dropping him from the squad for World Cup qualifiers and man united giving him an extended leave of absence now he has not been found guilty so I can't speak on that
but as we all know being the subject of stuff like that never helps especially when you're already an unpopular figure among the fans and man united and ten hag need to take some responsibility for this because Anthony was never at any point in his entire career worth A1 million e how and why the club bid that much for him and sanctioned that move I'd never be able to understand anyway what do you guys think about Anthony is he the most unlikable player in World football right now are there players you'd say are more unlikable than
