Ian Wright slams Casemiro and says he's 'surprised' at his mistake in Man United vs Aston Villa

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has blamed Casemiro for Leon Bailey's opening goal as Manchester United fell to a 3-1 defeat at Villa Park on Sunday afternoon.

It was the worst possible start for United as Bailey fired home in the seventh minute. It got worse for the Reds moments later when Lucas Digne curled home a free kick to make it two.

Luke Shaw's heavily-deflected strike gave United hope going into the second half but Jacob Ramsey put the game beyond doubt as he tucked in a cutback from Ollie Watkins. Assessing the defeat post-match on Premier League Productions, Wright claimed that United's Brazilian midfielder should have assessed the danger better for Bailey's strike.
