Live Bar, April 5th News Although Manchester United lost 3-4 to Chelsea in the away game, Anthony scored an assist in this game. "Manchester United" commented on the player's performance.
"Manchester United" said that if you want Anthony to perform well, you let him play against Chelsea. Anthony played his best game of the season against Galatasaray in November but was lost against Newcastle. He responded with a commendable performance the following game when Chelsea visited Old Trafford, and was given the start again.
Rashford was on standby for this game, Anthony was the beneficiary of this decision, and Garnacho moved to the left wing. For Anthony, this is a chance to impress. In this game, there were signs that Anthony could still have a future at Manchester United, despite his poor start at the club.
Anthony has looked unable to beat opposition full-backs since joining the team, but he performed well against Chelsea and grew in confidence throughout the game, cutting inside with purpose, which allowed Library to Kurelia felt a headache.
The only blemish in his performance was a foul on Cucurella in the first half. Anthony could not have won the ball from that angle and his clumsy foul resulted in a penalty. Although the 0-2 scoreline made the game difficult, United got a goal thanks to a Caicedo error and Anthony's contribution in the game did not go unnoticed. He did an excellent job keeping the attack alive from the touchline and was instrumental in the equalizer, passing the ball down the right to Dalot waiting on the left.
If you thought there was an imposter playing in Anthony's jersey, you'd be forgiven for thinking that his assist for Garnacho's second goal, which made it 3-2, was outstanding. Ten Hag pushed hard to sign Anthony in his first summer at United, and his confidence in him has been questionable and confusing for much of his time at the club. Starting Anthony against Chelsea was a brave decision and his performance strongly justified it.
Anthony is still a long way from success at Manchester United, but there were encouraging signs against Chelsea that he can turn things around. With less than two months left in the season, Anthony must use his performance to push him forward - this must be his turning point. Last night was a step in the right direction for him, and it's a shame that his performance was rendered worthless after the team's inexplicable collapse.
