Erik ten Hag believes Casemiro's attitude is helping construct a winning mentality at Manchester United.
United's long wait for a trophy finally came to an end on Sunday after Newcastle United were defeated 2-0 at Wembley in the Carabao Cup final. Casemiro himself got the opening goal as he headed in Luke Shaw's free-kick before the red-hot Marcus Rashford sealed the win with the help of a deflection.
There was little rest for the Brazilian lynchpin as on Monday he jetted off to France to pick up his award for being named in the FIFPro Team of the Year alongside the likes of Lionel Messi, Karim Benzema and Kylian Mbappe. The trophy will go nicely with his Player of the Match award from the final and while Ten Hag is of little doubt the accolades show Casemiro's quality on the pitch, it's what he brings off it that has also impressed the manager.
