Dutch football experts talk about Anthony: Small fish into the sea, the Premier League tested his true quality（YAJING）

Live, September 19 - Dutch football expert Marcel van der Keran recently visited talkSPORT radio show and talked about Anthony and Zilkzer.

Van der Keran said: "Tenhauch is keeping his fingers crossed that Anthony is still successful because it was on his advice that the club spent so much money on this player. That's the trap Dutch coaches usually fall into when they go to England and the players they see in Holland are doing OK."

"Anthony is from Brazil, he joined Ajax and in Brazil he is a genius. He went to the Dutch league, which was not on the same level, where he thought he was a real star. Yes, you're playing against teams like Utrecht and the Forward Eagles, who only have to play three or four big games a season, and yes, he did light up the stadium a few times in big games, but he couldn't do it consistently. Then he came to England and thought 'hang on, I'm up against a really good opponent'."

Anthony scored in United's 7-0 thrashing of Barnsley, but van der Keran believes it was simply not enough to justify the huge fee the club paid for him. He said: "In the past, Anthony used to play, he was one of those kids from the streets of Brazil and when he met some of the boys from the streets of London, Manchester or Liverpool, they were just as tough as he was."

"If Anthony's level of play is down to playing against Barnsley in the League Cup, then that's not the route you want to take in your career after such a big-money move."

When it comes to Chilkizer, van der Keran said that Tunhahe must be hoping that this time he is not wrong, he said: "Zilkizer played for five or six clubs early in his career, if you are a real talent, you will stay at one club. He has the talent, he has the height, and watching him at 15 at the Feyenoord football Academy, I always thought he was talented."

"At Bologna he did very well, but this is Manchester United and we have to watch the kid, we have to look at all the signings of Tenhauch in the longer term."

"Tenhauch learned from his experience with Anthony and a few other players and you wonder if he should have been more cautious about buying players from the Dutch league after seeing how difficult it was for other players."

"I really hope it will be different for Zilkzer, if Zilkzer doesn't score goals and play well, then it will be a very difficult season for Tenhauch."
