Gary Neville disagrees with Rio Ferdinand as Erik ten Hag accused of "disrespect"

Gary Neville doesn't believe Erik ten Hag's decision to leave Casemiro out of the Manchester derby was a mistake.

That is despite his former Manchester United teammate Rio Ferdinand claiming it is "disrespectful" to have the Brazilian sat on the bench. Casemiro was a £70m acquisition in the summer, joining after a trophy-laden period with Real Madrid in which he won five Champions Leagues.

That said, Ten Hag is yet to start his new midfielder in any of the four league games he's been available for. Instead all four of his appearances have come from the bench. Casemiro was only handed half an hour in the defeat at Manchester City, by which point United were 4-0 down.
