Patrice Evra has circled Casemiro as Manchester United’s most important player on current form.
The summer signing has been a key part of the team’s good run of form, being effective both going forwards and backwards. The Brazilian netted his first Old Trafford goal when opening the scoring in Tuesday’s 3-0 win over Bournemouth and grabbed an assist in the 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest after making one of his customary interceptions.
Casemiro has been the linchpin in a new-formed midfield trio under Erik ten Hag with fellow summer arrival Christian Eriksen and Burno Fernandes both also impressing. Evra has detailed his admiration for the 30-year-old, who he hailed as the “most consistent” United star.
