Antony, he's coming in at £100million or roughly around that figure, [you hope] that he comes in and that doesn't weigh heavy on his neck. He said: 'It can be the price tag weighing heavy and the pressure and the attention of being under the spotlight, a new environment and club and culture that they're not used to, and a team setup that they're not used to.

Ferdinand outlined that moving for such a significant fee generates a lot of pressure, while it can also take time to adapt to a new environment and culture.

After years of indifference from the club’s current playing staff, and the doomed recruitment of players like Angel Di Maria, who simply did not want to be there, Ten Hag is putting a premium on commitment. From the players to the board, everybody’s attitude and aptitude is under suspicion. With Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial all preferring to play on the left, there is a clear need for someone who plays on the right. Perhaps that is why Ten Hag is so happy to demand the signing of Antony, regardless of cost. United have Casemiro now to help address that problem, a player who has done it all. For United specifically, he fits the requirements.

Considering that they're one of the favorites in the completion, ten Hag does have a good shot at his first trophy before the end of the season if they can find consistency. Able to pass, shoot or take his defender on dribbling, he brings everything to the table that United hoped they were getting from Jadon Sancho. Being able to unleash them on tired legs will keep the pressure on the opposition to close out games. As ten Hag has coached Antony for the last two seasons, he knows what the winger can do best and will put him in the best position to succeed as he transitions to the Premier League.
