He believes Casemiro is Manchester United's most important player

After starting the season with two consecutive defeats, it was decided to change situations that the Red Devils were going through, a 4-0 defeat away to Brentford was the main reason why they wanted to innovate in some changes in the club, they wanted to sign players who could add to the development of the club, for that Casemiro was requested.

He was signed alongside his Brazilian compatriot, Antony, from Ajax, while Casemiro was coming off the back of winning the Champions League for the fifth time in his career, the main reason for his signing, a great midfield player with defensive tendencies. Nearly £150 million would be spent to sign these players.

This is the competition Erik ten Hag wants to see with his left-backs

It took almost ten games for the player to show that he could adapt to the Dutch manager's system of play, he is a great addition to the squad and it was decided to sign him to find that balance in midfield play. Rio Ferdinand believes he is the only defensive midfielder, who has been highlighted throughout his career as a player who has the qualities of a central defender.

He is not the answer to everything the team needs, but it will certainly help a lot to have a player of his ability on the pitch. Despite starting the game against Everton with a mistake, he was able to recover and play a great game, finishing the game with a great assist for Cristiano Ronaldo to score his 700th goal. The Red Devils won away and Casemiro won the player of the match award.
