Antony's on fire! Man Utd flop posts video highlights from Real Betis debut that saw him claim Player of the Match award as Bruno Fernandes & six other ex-team-mates show support

The Brazil international winger finds himself in Spain after failing to deliver on a consistent basis for Premier League heavyweights. With United’s patience pushed to breaking point, a loan spell in La Liga has been sanctioned, and he got off to the perfect start.

Antony is looking to rediscover a lost spark, and made an impressive go of that when making his bow for Betis. It was his quick feet and low shot that allowed Isco to open the scoring in a meeting with Athletic Club, as an immediate impact was made in the final third of the field. Could the Liga side unlock the Ajax Antony that was never really seen at Old Trafford?

Antony looked more like his old self when running at opponents – with it those qualities that convinced United to spend £85 million ($105m) on prising him away from Ajax – and the 24-year-old has posted a highlights reels on social media that reminds his parent club what he is capable of.

It remains to be seen whether Antony has any future in Manchester, but United team-mates of past and present - including Bruno Fernandes, Joshua Zirkzee, Diogo Dalot, Matthijs de Ligt, Anthony Martial, Andre Onana and Aaron Wan-Bissaka – have all pushed the like button on his video post.

Antony’s exploits against Athletic Club earned him Player of the Match recognition, with the best possible start being made to a new challenge in Spain. Betis, who sit 10th in the Liga table, will be back in action on Saturday when taking in a trip to Celta Vigo.
