Erik ten Hag knew two games into his tenure at Manchester United that he desperately needed reinforcements to turn this around.
Cristiano Ronaldo was relegated to the bench, as was Harry Maguire, and moves were made for Casemiro and, most significantly, Antony, in an £85.5million deal from Ajax.
Antony is capable of playing on either flank in Ten Hag's three-man front line and his versatility is one of the reasons why the Dutchman was eager to reunite at Old Trafford this season.
The 22-year-old Brazilian international typically likes to attack down the right-hand-side of the pitch and cut in-field to utilise his dominant left foot.
