It has been a dream run for Antony ever since he has joined Real Betis on loan. In the third consecutive La Liga game for the club, Antony racked up the third MVP award on the bounce. Things looked really bleak for the Brazilian footballer during his stint for Manchester United. Then, as a desperate move to revitalize his career, Antony joined the Spanish outfit on loan.

Real Betis played out a 2-2 draw against Athletic Club on the third of February. This was the start of Antony’s career at Real Betis. He looked solid against the counterparts and despite not finding a goal, he created ample chances from the wings. Up next for Real Betis was the clash against Celta Vigo. They did go down fighting, but Antony had his first goal for the Spanish contingent.

In last night’s game against Real Sociedad, the former Manchester United player opened the scoring for Real Betis, hammering home a screamer. It isn’t just the goals that has defined Antony, but his superlative performances have set the tone right for the Brazilian. Being at the nexus of Real Betis’ ultra aggressive unit, Antony’s third MVP award on the bounce has thrown questions to Manchester United.

Antony isn’t the only player who has shined after time away from Old Trafford off late. Marcus Rashford was lauded by the Aston Villa fans for his reckoning display even though he is yet to find a goal. In fact, Rashford’s opener for Aston Villa was also hogged unwanted limelight. Fans have been divided over the entire scene in the wake of the departure of these players.

There were Manchester United fans who were despondent about the club pointing out a similar fate for Scott McTominay. There were remarks about how Manchester United find themselves in the center of all the negative allegations.

A few drew contrast with Marcus Rashford, underlining the reactions would have blown through the roof for the latter. There were fans who questioned how good the league is or has he dramatically improved overnight. Amidst all, someone pointed out that if this form continues for Antony, then he might actually help Manchester United procure a good sale value for himself.
