, Antony is the second-most expensive player in *******’s history behind Paul Pogba.

But he scored just five goals and three assists in 55 Premier League appearances, and last season contributed a single goal and one assist as ******* finished eighth.

, but Ten Hag says the player is in charge of his own destiny.

“He’s impatient,” said the ******* manager. “He wants to play.

“But in top football there are laws. You pick the team that has most chance to win the game, the one with the best dynamic, the best chemistry. Players have to ****** for their positions.”

Rashford, Garnacho and Amad have all scored this season, which has increased the pressure on Antony, who was linked with Turkish club Fenerbahce before the transfer window closed.

“The other players are doing so well – they’re contributing,” said Ten Hag. “He has to get over them. He has to earn the right in training.”

“We have every day training and the players have to earn the right to play.

“When players do the right thing in training, when the attitude is good, when

they show performance in training, they will earn the right to play.”
