‘Antony plays like he’s s*** himself’, says ex-Chelsea star in withering attack on ‘pathetic’ Man Utd flop

Ex-Chelsea star Khalid Boulahrouz has launched a blistering attack on Antony after the winger taunted Manchester United's FA Cup rivals.

Former Holland international Boulahrouz dubbed the £85million buy from Ajax a "pathetic" waste of money - who plays every game as though he has SOILED HIMSELF.

United sneaked past Coventry City into the FA Cup final on penalties after the Championship club staged an epic comeback to draw 3-3, and had a winner ruled out by VAR.

Antony then goaded the Sky Blues with an ear-cupping celebration while most of his teammates remained embarrassed at going through.

Boulahrouz, a £8.5m Chelsea buy from Hamburg in 2006, has now savaged the 24-year-old on Dutch TV.

"Antony's behaviour was completely uncalled for," the 42-year-old told Rondo. "I think it was a bit pathetic.

"He completely failed to understand the situation he is in, and the way his team had just performed.

"He is truly the last person who should be acting this way.

"He has been signed for 100 million euros [£85m], and he plays every game as though he has s*** in his pants.

"As far as I know he has just provided one assist, and not scored any goals [in the Premier League this season].

"You simply have to afford them respect, and congratulate them. You should leave the pitch as a gentleman, and he should be deeply ashamed.

"If I was Antony's teammate I would tell him: 'You ought to be ashamed, man. Behave yourself!'"

Boulahrouz won 35 Netherlands caps, and made 20 appearances for Jose Mourinho's Chelsea side.

He also played for Sevilla, Stuttgart, Sporting Lisbon and Feyenoord, and helped Holland reach the 2010 World Cup final.
