Man United's Antony promises to keep entertaining fans with skills despite Gary Neville's criticism

Antony has vowed to continue doing his skills and tricks for Manchester United fans, despite intense criticism from pundit Gary Neville.

On his club debut after an £85m move from Ajax, the 22-year-old stood in front of Arsenal's Oleksandr Zinchenko and tried to confuse the Ukrainian by lifting his leg up and twirling it around before playing the ball back.

Neville said the Brazilian would have 'whacked' for his 'pointless' piece of first-half skill if he had anything to do with it, as previously reported in Sportsmail.

Fellow pundit Jamie Carragher said he would have 'put him in the stand' if Antony had tried anything like that against him in his playing days.
