Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has revealed that he always wants fellow Brazilian Antony on his team during training, as well as who he thinks is the fastest, funniest, most skilful player and who would make the best future manager.
Erik ten Hag may have taken his time to introduce Casemiro to the Premier League, but the wait has been well worth it. Since his first league start against Everton, where the 30-year-old was awarded the Man of the Match, he has gone from strength to strength.
Scott McTominay had initially held on to his place in Ten Hag's starting XI, yet it was only a matter of time before the five-time Champions League winner cemented himself in the club's first-team plans. Casemiro has had to not only understand a new tactical set-up at United, but also get to grips with the playing styles and attributes of all his new teammates.

The midfielder has now shared some insight regarding the United squad, as he took part in a quickfire Q&A about them with the Premier League’s YouTube channel.
Casemiro revealed that the fastest player in training was Marcus Rashford, while he found fellow new signing Lisandro Martinez as the funniest at the club. Christian Eriksen meanwhile was tipped as the most likely to become a good manager in the future.
Jadon Sancho and Antony were both hailed by Casemiro as the most skilful in training, as he admitted that he always wants to be on the same team as his compatriot when the squad are at Carrington.
Lastly, Bruno Fernandes was declared as having the 'best engine' in training, which comes as no surprise after the Portuguese international covered 12.37km during the win over Tottenham – the furthest distance of any United player on the pitch.
