Gary Neville wasn’t impressed by Casemiro’s performance on Monday night.
Gary Neville has criticisedManchester UnitedmidfielderCasemirofor getting “absolutely torn to shreds” by Wolves on Monday night.
The Red Devils were fortunate to beat Wolves 1-0with the visitors to Old Trafford looking the most likely to opening the scoring before Raphael Varane’s header won the game for Erik ten Hag’s men.
Man Utd can also count themselves extremely lucky to avoid conceding a penalty in the dying stages of the game after debutant goalkeeper Andre Onana clattered into Sasa Kalajdzic deep into time added on.
Wolves boss Gary O’Neil has ɾєⱱєɑłєԀ thatPremier League referees’ boss Jon Moss has already apologisedand told him his side had been denied a “blatant” penalty.
Casemiro, who was brilliant for the Red Devils last season, had a game to forget against Wolves and Neville wants to see Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat bɾօυɢҺt in as soon as possible.
Amrabat is believed to be Ten Hag’s top target to improve his midfield with Neville claimingthe performance of his playersis likely to be a “real wօɾɾу” for the Man Utd boss.
Neville said onSky Sports: “They are trying to sign, or were trying to sign, Sofyan Amrabat we believe, to go in there alongsideCasemiro.
“I don’t know [who Erik ten Hag would drop] but they want to buy Sofyan Amrabat for a ɾєɑȿօɴ.
“One thing that Erik ten Hag is not going to do is go back to the likes of Fred and Scott McTominay who he believes are technically not good enough on the ball.
“He wants everybody in the team to be able to accept the football and receive it. Sofyan Amrabat coming in, he is a passer of the ball and can sit in there alongsideCasemiro.
“Casemiro got absolutely torn to shreds tonight. Man Utd’s midfield were non-existent and they were absolutely ripped apart. Wolves were absolutely fantastic. Manchester United’s midfield was non-existent, it emptied. That would have been a real wօɾɾу for Erik ten Hag.
“Wolves were brilliant tonight, they had everything but a goal.Manchester Unitedwere outplayed and can feel very fortunate to come away with three points because they didn’t deserve it.”
On the Wolves penalty shout in ιɴjυɾу time, O’Neil commented:”Having just spoken to Jon Moss, fair enough he came straight out and said it was a blatant penalty and it should have been given.
“I sometimes feel bad. I’ve spent a lot of my day with him trying to understand the new guidelines and how to not get myself booked which I’ve failed in, but fair play to Jon in coming out.
“He said it was clear and obvious and he can’t believe the on-field referee didn’t give it and he can’t believe VAR didn’t intervene. It’s probably made me feel worse to be Һօɴєȿτ because once you know you’re right you feel worse about leaving with nothing.”
