Man Utd Star Warned To Stop Mocking Opponents

Man Utd Star Warned To Stop Mocking Opponents

Former Manchester United star Dimitar Berbatov has warned current Red Devils attacker Antony to stop mocking opponents.

The Brazilian attacker joined the Red Devils from Ajax Amsterdam in a deal reportedly £85million, but he has divided opinion.

The 23-year-old has registered nine goals and three assists in 33 appearances for the Red Devils.

Certain pundits have criticised Antony for some of skills in matches, but Berbatov feels it bring the attacker some unwanted attention from defenders.

"I think he's been a good signing. However in my eyes, he does sometimes get deserved criticism because he shows off on the pitch and he tries to make the opposition look foolish in a negative way," Berbatov told Betfred.

"Sometimes his trickery provides nothing for the team and if he can eradicate these negative elements of his game then it will greatly improve his impact on the team.

"However, if you mock your opponent then they're going to kick the sh*t out of you and you're not going to have the respect of the players you're playing against.

"If he can remove these traits, then he can improve a lot more because he's a great talent with great qualities and he scores great goals as well.

"His problem is that he can p*ss people off and he needs to correct this."
