Erik ten Hag admits Casemiro has exceeded his expectations in his first season at Manchester United.
The Brazilian scored the only goal in United's 1-0 win at Bournemouth to take them to within a point of securing Champions League qualification.
United signed Casemiro, 31, from Real Madrid for £60million rising to £70m in late August and he has been an influential presence in a season that is all but certain to be remembered as a success.
