Midfielder playing at an unrecognisable level since joining Man Utd

Manchester United after losing 4-0 away to Brentford, had to make a lot of important decisions for the future of the club, they could not start a season with two consecutive defeats like that. A decision was made that would cost almost £150 million, they brought in Antony from Ajax, and five-time Champions League winner Casemiro.

The Brazilians have had a very different story in Erik ten Hag's squad, while Antony scored his third goal against Everton on Sunday, the midfielder's case is very different, he has played very little, has not had enough minutes and even made a mistake on the first goal of the game, lost the ball and Everton turned that mistake into a goal.

Manchester United have not had clarity in their passing, and the midfield has been affected, a lot of turnovers, they have played on the edge in many plays. The Red Devils have had a difficult start to their visit to Frank Lampard's side, who have been very decisive in going for the result in this match.

Casemiro has not shown the level he has had in Real Madrid where he was many times champion, they have been very patient with the case of the Brazilian midfielder who was brought to be a reference, he has been very far from his level in the Madrid team, the version of the midfielder very far from what he is.

Casemiro has a new chance to win a place in midfield

The player was not signed just to have him in certain matches, he was signed to be a reference in the Old Trafford club, the directors saw a better option than bringing Frenkie de Jong, as the Brazilian would bring a lot of experience at the club of the Red Devils, we will have to wait for his performance.
