Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag made eight changes to his side against Barnsley as the Red Devils prepare for a hectic fixture schedule before the next international break

Man United manager Erik ten Hag has shuffled his pack for tonight's Carabao Cup third round tie against Barnsley.

Manchester United winger Antony must earn his spot on the team by showing consistency in training, the Premier League club's manager Erik ten Hag said.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has told Antony he must raise his level and “earn the right to play”. The £85 million winger appeared as an 89th-minute substitute in the 2-1 defeat by Brighton last month but has otherwise not got off the bench in United’s other four games.

An £82m signing from Ajax in 2022, Antony is the second-most expensive player in United’s history behind Paul Pogba. But he scored just five goals and three assists in 55 Premier League appearances, and last season contributed a single goal and one assist as United finished eighth.

Antony has to "earn the right" to win back his place in the Manchester United team, according to manager Erik ten Hag.

It has been two years since Erik ten Hag splashed the cash to bring Antony to Manchester United but the forward has already gone from the club’s second-biggest signing to out of the first team in a dramatic fall from grace.

Erik ten Hag says Antony can “bounce back” in the battle for a starting berth in the Manchester United team. Antony began to lose his place in the team towards the end of last season, but the new campaign begun with Amad Diallo being the preferred option on the right wing.
