Former England striker Darren Bent has slammed Manchester United forward Antony.

Bent told talkSPORT: “All tricks and flicks, no substance at the minute. He’s doing all this stuff but he’s not going past anyone.

“It’s not like he’s doing a trick to manipulate the ball to go past someone, he’s just doing it for the sake of it. A little bit like the spin, at the time I was like ‘ah come on it’s only a spin.’”

Bent was then asked by the show’s host Andy Goldstein if Antony is a ‘YouTube footballer’, to which he replied: “A little bit yeah.

“You clip all the best bits of a footballer and you look at it on YouTube and go ‘wow, I can’t believe we’re signing him!’

“But where’s the substance in between, where’s the end product? I know he started off alright at United, couple of good goals, but where’s the end product?”
