I've set goals for success at Old Trafford

Winger reveals targets he's hoping to hit - on and off the pitch

ANTONY insisted he's his own harshest critic after netting his first United goal in nine games during the FA Cup win against Everton at Old Trafford.

The Brazilian winger scored after three minutes to set the Reds on their way to a 3-1 success and he admitted the goal came at a good time, having suffered a personal setback in midweek and at a moment when his bright start to life at the club was starting to wear off.

The £85.5m signing from Ajax scored in his first three Premier League appearances but he's struggled to match that since. Against Everton, his movement was sharp to get on the end of Marcus Rashford's low cross on Friday night.

Erik ten Hag pushed hard to be reunited with his former player this summer and the fee the Reds ended up paying has added to the expectations in his first season in English football, but he has set himself goals on and off the pitch since moving to the Premier League and is focusing on getting his mindset right to thrive.

"I've set goals for me not only on the pitch, it also involves resting, eating well, everything. It's about being 100 per cent on and off the pitch, especially on the mental side as it's what controls the rest," said Antony.
