Manchester United attacker Antony has been branded a 'bluffer' by former Aston Villa star Gabriel Agbonlahor.
The Brazil international joined the Red Devils from Ajax in the August transfer window in a deal reportedly worth £86million.
The 22-year-old has contributed with five goals across all competitions but he has only registered one assist this campaign.

Agbonlahor took issue with a number of aspects in Antony's game and feels he needs to start contributing more in the final third.
"Manchester United have looked better since Erik ten Hag has come in and they've done better in the last few months," Agbonlahor told talkSPORT.
"But when I look at Antony, there's been a few big transfers in the Premier League, £86million for him…
"I think he's a bluffer. I think when he gets the ball, he doesn't take a player on. He doesn't have the speed to take players on.
"With 11 league games he's got three goals, no assists. Four Carabao Cup games, one goal, no assists. Two FA Cup games, one goal, one assist. That's one assist in all competitions.
"He doesn't do what Rashford does. Rashford gets the ball direct, takes players on, puts balls into the box.
"The big thing for me is [Antony's] number of crosses. He's put in 1.5 crosses [average] per game. If you're a striker, you're making runs and he's doing his tricks, cutting in, cutting back, not putting the ball in the box.
"I played with a great winger, Ashley Young, still playing now at 37. His first season at Aston Villa, he got nine goals and 14 assists. You always knew he was going to put the ball in, take a player on, do his step overs, do his chops, but he'd always put the ball in the right areas.
"For me, Antony's 1.5 crosses a game is not good enough."
