"But I think there was a bit of a lack of respect there, even a bit of rudeness too, with no one giving you a good morning, a good afternoon. Not even that. But, anyway, that's in the past, I won't give much importance to these things. Now I'm here, at Betis, I'm living here, that's the most important thing for me."
"I think off-field matters affected me a lot, in my performance. I know my potential, I know my qualities, I didn't play in a World Cup for nothing, I didn't return to the national team for nothing. I also take responsibility for it not working out, for not performing as I wanted. But I always try to see the bright side of things, going through this entire process, this time at United, was necessary to see myself."
Antony reported feeling a lack of respect and rudeness from his Manchester United environment, noting teammates did not offer basic greetings. He trained separately from teammates under Ruben Amorim and was excluded from the club's preseason tour. Antony initially joined Real Betis on loan before completing a €22 million permanent transfer. He acknowledged responsibility for underperforming but said off-field matters significantly affected his form, citing his World Cup appearance and national team recall as evidence of his quality. Antony emphasized moving on and focusing on living and playing at Betis.
