He is the reason they are playing better than ever before since he joined them in the summer.

Manchester United took the football world by storm during the summer transfer window as they heavily invested in getting quality signings into the team at Ten Hag's beckon. The club invested over 200 million euros to get several targets as the new dawn began at Old Trafford.

Although United spent most of their summer chasing after one of Ten Hag's former players from his time at Ajax, Frenkie De Jong, they failed to successfully convince him to join the club. As a result, they opted quickly for a much more experienced midfield maestro.

Casemiro was quickly reached out to over a possible switch from Madrid to Old Trafford which he gracefully agreed to as he sought for a new challenge away from his accustomed winnings seasons at Madrid. He was guaranteed a start for the Madrid side that has dominated club football for years.

His move to Manchester was sealed swiftly after he gave the green light to both club's boards and quickly began life in the Premier League. It didn't take long for him to convince Ten Hag of his ever-present quality that allowed United more freedom in games and has taken that form to Qatar.

Brazil kicked off their World Cup campaign yesterday with a comfortable 2-0 win over Serbia as Casemiro marshaled the midfield. The experienced tank was phenomenal on the night and almost had a goal to his name but was denied by the crossbar. He played full 90 minutes, had three shots, and won five of six duels in the game.  He provided the Samba boys with more freedom to play up the pitch.
