Anthony Elanga continues to thrive away from Manchester United.
The Swedish winger has been brilliant for Nottingham Forest, and he has just shown his class again in the Premier League fixture against Aston Villa.
Just five minutes into the encounter, Anthony Elanga burst past Matty Cash who was playing high, driving towards the Villa goal with an ‘electric‘ run. He then pulled it back to Harry Toffolo, who neatly found Ola Aina who expertly dispatched to put Forest a goal to the good.
But now after seeing Elanga shine once again, United fans are all saying the exact same thing on social media.
Manchester United fans on Anthony Elanga
Manchester United fans are all now insinuating that Erik ten Hag may have got rid of the wrong winger.
‘Elanga > Antony and it’s not even close,’ one writes.
Another adds: ‘I can’t believe we sold Elanga to make room for Antony. He’s been doing really well this year.’
Should’ve kept Elanga over Antony’ and ‘Elanga is already better than Antony’ two more write.
‘Elanga in 5 minutes against Aston Villa has done more than Antony this entire season and we let him go because he’s not a Ten Hag player,’ another fan gives their verdict.
‘Anthony Elanga is 10 times more effective than Antony. Great buy from Nottingham Forest. Will only get better,’ says another.
A final adds: ‘Not going to lie looking at the way Antony has performed, we should have kept the running man Elanga. Of the three Anthony’s we let the wrong one go.’
Did Manchester United get rid of the wrong Anthony?
Of the three we had last season, now Anthony Martial and Antony remain – who have both been nothing short of abysmal this season.
Elanga has been thriving at Forest and it’s easy to think what could’ve been at United.
Ralf Rangnick was a huge fan of the winger… was he right all along?
