Antony has now talked about learning from Cristiano Ronaldo. He told MUTV: “I’ve come to help my team-mates. Regardless of age, there’s immense talent in all the players.
“Words can’t describe Cristiano, the best in the world. In just a few days, I’ve learnt a lot from him. He has an extraordinary mind and, whenever I talk to him, I take a lot from it.
“I’m sure that we have a strong attack and it’s very promising for the future.”
Antony also talked about his style of play. He said: “I’ve always done this. Not just here but for all the teams I’ve played for. I’ve been doing it ever since I was a child. I’ve always done it – it’s one of my characteristics.”
“I am adapting and getting used to things here already. Entertaining is something I’ve always liked and I’ll continue doing it.”
