He'll get the armband off of Harry within a year if he joins I'm certain.

Proper leader and destroyer in midfield
Di Maria was 26.
The only thing I would say (I made that argument against the grain in regards to Di Maria, Sanchez etc etc), Casemiro seems like he's still good physically and he has a lot of fight about him. He's not comparable in terms of personality as I don't think he'd be happy to be shown up on the pitch, regardless of the money he's earning.
Using United to get a better contract at Real is a tale as old as time
Surely we won't fall for it again

Please god please
Must've hit that bong hard
His contract at Real runs until 2025
And will be needing again in a few years as he is already 30 years and 6 months old. Also have we literally not learned what has already happened with us paying over inflated wages to those that are not coming to the club for the right reasons, it has always been recipe for disaster and we may as well not have even bothered recruiting ten hag of we are going to keep repeating the same recruiting screw ups

Hopefully not this time. At this stage of the window we can't afford it. Him signing or not (especially if backed up with others) will probably define our season. Either we'll get a boost in quality and fight, or it'll be another mugging off and we'll be flat as a pancake from here on out.
His contract was renewed just last year and Real have spent the better part of the last 2 years getting their wage structure in order, they won't be giving him another raise especially after signing 2 young midfield talents over the last 2 summers...
Turn your phone down guys if you're giving this vid a watch at a funeral.
Jesus Christ man.
I would much rather do this as at least he loves united and would see us as a step up compared to casemiro who will be taking a step down for purely a financial gain in what he probably sees as his last big contract in football
Unless the person loved dmx
My brain genuinely can’t wrap the fact that we could have Casemiro, Varane and Ronaldo in our team.
30 isn't old. If you want us to get the best players in the world in, we have to pay the money. We are not good enough to attract these players otherwise.
We have zero evidence in regards to his ability being in decline. If he comes just enjoy having a world-class DCM once again.
One poster yesterday said Casemiro is 30 and half decade old.
If he joins I think we'll finally get a tune out of Fred. They play brilliantly together for Brazil and keep Fabinho out of the team.
Bravo!
Dream signing. An elite dm at the top of his game is exactly what we need to transform our midfield for next 4-5 years and provide a stable platform to grow and blood the promising youngsters.
Don’t care what he costs.

The bit where he tackled so well that Messi slipped himself up has made my day.
Could this actually happen? I've no doubt that we'll still need someone to partner him because playing in that Real Madrid midfield isn't anything like playing in ours, but he's one hell of a player. I'm worried about the wages being involved but if that's what it takes to get one of the best DMs around who is still at his peak then we have to take it.

Can only assume those not wanting us to sign Casemiro haven't watched the games against Brighton and Brentford.
Yes, he is 30 but we are a total mess. If we are signing players for the future we still needs winners and leaders like Casemiro in the short term to help. And short term being 3 years would still be an excellent return.
We paid 50m for AWB and 80m for Maguire. We shouldn't think twice about buying this lad. We need him more than FDJ.

Martinez - Varane
It does look good on paper.

Massive signing but we'll need to add another midfielder if we get him.
We've got a player he's already quite used to and comfortable partnering in midfield with on the books
Bit out there as far as midfield threes are concerned
I specifically remember him having an average to poor first half and then a mega second one. Was intercepting and blocking everything in the second half
All aboard!
He’s got such a chubby friendly face and then you see the minute comp of him crunching into every attacker he sees
Better than what we have currently.
