Ruben Amorim<\/a> has been told he let a ‘brutal talent’ leave Manchester United<\/a> during the January transfer window.<\/p>\n

Despite United’s ongoing issues, the Red Devils focussed on outgoings rather than incomings in January, with several first-team players securing loan moves.<\/p>\n

Marcus Rashford joined Premier League<\/a> rivals Aston Villa, Antony move to La Liga club Real Betis and Tyrell Malacia returned to Holland at PSV.<\/p>\n

Trimming Amorim’s squad seemed wise at the time but both Rashford and Antony have enjoyed impressive starts to their stints away from Old Trafford<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rashford made two assists in Aston Villa’s comeback win over Chelsea on Saturday<\/a>, while Antony has scored three goals and provided two assists for Betis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Antony, who flopped at Manchester United following a \u00a382m move from Ajax in 2022<\/a>, provided a superb assist for Real Betis teammate Isco in Sunday’s victory over Getafe.<\/p>\n

But the Brazilian was then sent off in the latter stages of the match for a late lunge that left the Getafe players furious<\/a> and rules him out of next weekend’s huge clash with Real Madrid.<\/p>\n

Despite the red card, Antony was hailed as a ‘brutal talent’ by Isco after Real Betis hung on to beat Getafe.<\/p>\n

‘It’s very easy to play with him,’ Isco told RTV Betis. ‘He’s got a brutal talent.<\/p>\n

‘You have to put your talent at the service of the team. Let’s see if we can take that step forward to reach Europe.<\/p>\n

‘Let’s see if Antony’s expulsion can be reviewed. Hopefully we can appeal and they don’t sanction him. We’ll see.’<\/p>\n

Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini, formerly of Manchester City and West Ham, has been complimentary of Antony since he arrived at the club<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But the veteran manager said the dismissal against Getafe must be a ‘learning experience’, saying in his post-match press conference: ‘I can’t tell you about the sending off as I did not see it.<\/p>\n

‘But it is a pity we won’t have him in the next game. He is bringing us a lot, we’ll miss him in the next game, this will be a learning experience for him.’<\/p>\n

Explaining why Antony has been able to his United misery behind him at Betis, Pellegrini added: ‘The most important thing has been his attitude and his self-criticism.<\/p>\n

‘If they paid that much for him it is because he is a player of a great level, who for reasons that I do not know could not perform as expected at Manchester United.<\/p>\n

‘I have spoken a lot with him to keep him calm, without wanting to show great things , but to keep it simple.<\/p>\n

‘He is a great player who does important things for the team and I hope he continues at that level until the end of the season because he will help us a lot.’<\/p>\n

Manchester United only made two signings in January, bringing in Danish full-back Patrick Dorgu<\/a> and teenage centre-back Ayden Heaven from Arsenal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Amorim’s side looked set to suffer yet another defeat at the weekend but fought back from 2-0 down to draw with Everton at Goodison Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n
