Erik ten Hag’s eighth loss of the season came from Manchester United’s 2-1 loss to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
United was defeated by goals from Nicolas Dominguez and Morgan Gibbs-White, with Marcus Rashford scoring the lone goal for the team.
Compared to Forest’s 45% ball possession, United held 55% of the ball.
Out of their ten attempts at goal, the Red Devils managed to register five shots on goal.
In contrast, out of their eight shots on goal, Nuno Espirito Santo’s team only managed two on target.
United completed 478 passes with an 81% completion percentage. Conversely, Forest completed 394 passes with a 78% pass accuracy rate.
Antony was among the 20-time English champions’ worst players.
With Rasmus Hojlund ruled out of the game due to illness, he was started on the right. Alejandro Garnacho was on the opposite flank from Rashford as he led the line.
In the 53rd minute, Antony was substituted for Amad Diallo and had only a 78% pass accuracy rate.
The Brazilian gave up the ball twelve times.
Only four of the ten ground fights he engaged in were victories. Additionally, he attempted three dribbles but only succeeded once.
Not a single cross was delivered by Antony.
Additionally, the 23-year-old was unable to record a shot or a crucial pass.
He appeared to be gripping his hamstrings while he was on the sidelines, so there’s a potential he might end up joining United’s long list of injured players.
It appears as though Antony is just another high-profile failure that United will be stuck with and unable to let go of with every game that goes by.
