Just a few days ago, Manchester United star Antony slammed several team legends. The Brazilian’s comments came in the wake of a series of criticisms directed towards him for his underwhelming performances on the pitch. And now one of those legends, Paul Scholes has responded savagely while wishing Antony good luck.

So far, the dynamic winger has been not able to score any goal in 10 matches in the Premier League. And now, just in a few hours, the Red Devils are set to face off against Chelsea. However, Scholes had a message for the Brazillian before the important match.

It is no secret that Paul Scholes has been a vocal critic of Antony’s performances in the past, even going so far as to label him a “clown” on one occasion. With this latest response, Scholes has only served to add fuel to the fire. Now let’s take a look at what Antony exactly said that provoked the Manchester United legend to respond in such a way.

The Brazilian winger fires back at critics citing a ‘period of turbulence’

As previously mentioned, the right winger has been struggling to find his form at Manchester United and has faced harsh criticism as a result. In a recent interview, Antony specifically called out former club players for unjustly expressing their opinions and influencing fans, even when he was not on the field.

Antony further stated, “But I’ve never seen them give constructive criticism, which will help me be a better professional. None of them have ever sent me a message to see how I am feeling, especially during this period of turbulence that I am going through.” This entire exchange is no doubt disheartening for fans of the club.
