'I knew how intense it would be': Antony admits training at Manchester United is 'very different' to at Ajax, but says he had 'prepared and trained' for the challenges of the Premier League

Manchester United star Antony has admitted training sessions at his new club are more 'intense' than he was used to, but he was prepared for the change after 'always following the Premier League.'

The former Ajax man hit the ground running with a goal on his United debut in the club's 3-1 win over Arsenal earlier this month.

It was an important moment for Antony after some questioned his worth following an £86 million move on transfer deadline day.
