Paul Scholes makes Casemiro admission after Manchester United defeat at Newcastle

Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes admitted Casemiro was a "big loss" for the Reds as Erik ten Hag's side lost away at Newcastle.

The Brazilian midfielder was absent as he continues to serve a four-match ban after being sent off in the goalless draw with Southampton last month. He will be sidelined for the next two domestic matches, which is a blow for United given how disappointing they were against Newcastle on Sunday.

Eddie Howe's side secured a 2-0 victory over United at St. James' Park, with Joe Willock and Callum Wilson both on the scoresheet for the home side. The result saw the Magpies move above the Reds in the Premier League table.
