Antony and second Man Utd player in trouble as top double act emerges

Manchester United ensured they continue their recent improvement under Erik ten Hag with a 3-0 win over Sheriff on Thursday night. Diogo Dalot, Marcus Rashford and Cristiano Ronaldo all struck to give the home side all three Europa League points. Express Sport will now take a look at five talking points from the future at Old Trafford.Antony seems to be in a spot of bother under Ten Hag.The United star was hooked at half time minutes after angering his boss by showboating, with the Brazil international needlessly spiralling with the ball before placing it out of play.While Antony angered his manager, Sancho may struggle to get into the team due to the superb performance of Alejandro Garnacho.Garnacho was a constant threat throughout the showdown, with the 18-year-old using his speed and intelligence to cause the visitors all kinds of problems.Ronaldo could easily have had a frustrating night, but his late goal ensured he left the ground with a smile on his face.Man Utd transfers: Plans for next three signings are damning on Solskjaer Man Utd beat Sheriff in Thursday night’s Europa League clash (Image: GETTY) Man Utd news: Erik ten Hag will want Europa League glory after Sheriff win (Image: GETTY) Man Utd news: Diogo Dalot produced a strong showing in Sheriff win (Image: GETTY)In Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, United have a top double act.Ten Hag could have been forgiven for resting both players, especially with the matches coming quick and fast.But Casemiro and Eriksen are undroppable at present, with the duo having a comfortable night at the office against Sheriff.Certainly, the days of Scott McTominay and Fred starting every game in the middle of the park look to be over.And that’s a credit to Ten Hag, whose eye for a signing has already been proven right with two of his arrivals daring fans to dream big again.WIN A FREE ENGLAND SHIRT FOR THE WORLD CUP!
