Man Utd legend ‘would pull his hair out’ if he played with current star who ‘p*sses people off’

Man Utd legend Andy Cole has admitted that he would have been “pulling his hair out” if he was playing in the same team as Antony.

Antony was one of United’s primary targets during last summer’s transfer window. The Brazil international has a great relationship with Erik ten Hag as they worked well together at Ajax.

Man Utd managed to get a deal over the line towards the end of the window as they paid around £86m to sign the attacker.

“If I was a striker in this team and saw Antony was playing on the right wing, I’d be pulling my hair out because I know that I will never get a cross my way on his weak right foot,” Cole told King Casino Bonus.

“If I was making a run into the box, I would not expect anything because he always chops back on to his left foot. The game has changed now and what managers want from wingers is different.

“Now defenders who play against him know there is no element of surprise because he always wants to come back on his left foot.”

“Sometimes his trickery provides nothing for the team and if he can eradicate these negative elements of his game then it will greatly improve his impact on the team,” Berbatov told Betfred.

“If he can remove these traits, then he can improve a lot more because he’s a great talent with great qualities and he scores great goals as well. His problem is that he can p*ss people off and he needs to correct this.”
