Former Manchester United star Gary Neville has been left unimpressed by Casemiro start to life at Old Trafford.
The Brazilian international completed a £70m move from Real Madrid to the Premier League giants in the final days of the Premier League transfer window.
However, despite arriving in Manchester with an incredible record of success in Madrid, the 30-year-old is yet to start a Premier League game for United.
Erik ten Hag started him in their 1-0 Europa League defeat to Real Sociedad in midweek action but Neville was frustrated by his showing against the Basque giants.
Ten Hag is still working on his plans to fit Casemiro into his system despite Neville’s criticism.
“Manchester United wanted to spend about £130m-£140m, they ended up spending £230m”, as per his appearance on The Overlap podcast.
“The Casemiro and Antony bids came in two days before the Liverpool game, which was obviously a moment where they just needed to get players in.”
Casemiro will not feature for United this weekend as the Premier League calendar has been postponed following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
The postponement could potentially stretch on into next weekend, with a UK state funeral planned, meaning Casemiro will not feature on the domestic front until after the international break.

it is too early to criticize new players for their first line up. he will take time to adapt the style of Ten Hag. Be patient on him. if an english player plays like casmero no english media and football pundiy wont speak out.

really? Casemiro? I thought I was watching a trash in Fred. should have played him in double pivot with Casemiro and let Eriksen flourish.

Casemiro made one of his gravest mistakes joining Man U. He can not coordinate well with substandard players at Man U and in the end he looks also like an ordinary Man U players

With those average players all around him, it will be difficult for him to optimally perform like he did at Madrid where he was surrounded by great players. By the way, do you think there are more than three players that pass for world - class players at Man United now? The answer is NO!

This is how Casemiro plays, even from R Madrid. He is slow by nature, Manutd can't expect Casemiro to be as quick as McTominay. Casemiro was bought knowingly how he conduct himself on the pitch.

Gary must be given 1 or 2 games to play to show the world how should a good player playing. From there we'll listen to his criticisms.

The days Gary Neville played for Manchester United, he was very useless player and no one criticized him. Why don’t you become a coach of any team? Casemiro is far better than when you were playing for Manchester United team, you were just like Maguire.
he has already coached Valencia and was humiliated and was sent back to england by barca

Neville is talking to early! This will be fixed quickly, they need more playing time to get used to it. Casemiro and Cristiano Ronaldo are the best among them and they'll damage teams in the upcoming games. ☝🏽
