perhaps we should put it in the thread title. Casemiro was and still is adored in Madrid, by the players there and the board. He wanted a new challenge, and they said that he had earned that right. Madrid were actually extremely classy throughout the whole endeavour. This was the only club He wanted to come to because he wanted to be part of the rebuild. It’s an amazing story, and I’m glad real honoured his wishes.
When I was watching this game my 4 year old son came into the room.
"When I grow up I want to be just like him." Were the words that echoed through the room.
"But dad you're five years older than him, you fat git" was the response I got.

I know it’s early days but he’s quite easily one of the best midfielders I’ve ever seen at this club. Could you imagine if he played with either Robson or Keane? They’d have adored him.
Need to keep pinching myself to even comprehend it. The fact he celebrated the League Cup like it was the World Cup final just tells you everything about his mentality. He and Varane are just born winners, absolutely love the pair of them. Incredible footballers.
I was really impressed by his conversation with Bruno about not passing the ball. On replay I checked if he was anywhere near and the answer was no he wasn’t in the box and he was just talking about passing to the open man. That is the sign of a proper leader.
Cassemiro should be our captain. He has the right mentality.

Gallagher's actually an Irish name, not Mancunian

What a player.
Now that we have seen how good he is ..
Was kroos -modric- casemiro better than xavi,- iniesta- busquets ?
No wonder Spain won everything the last decade
Add messi and ronaldo to this list and alves/ Marcelo

Spot on
That's 'tell them that help is on the way' story about him reaffirming his will to join after the Brentford defea is going to go down in annals of club lore.
What a man indeed
Bangkok trophy would have sent him into frenzy
Remember Rabiot was our only target.... until Casemiro signed out of nowhere? 
An unbelievable player, the best midfielder we've had since Scholes. I don't think we'd even be close to where we are now if we'd signed De Jong instead.

It really depends on your preference in terms of playing style. I will never forget the utter domination by the Barca trio though
I think the Real team of 14-18 weren't greater than the sum of their parts in the way Pep's Barca were. They never felt like the greatest team in Europe by absolute miles like Barca did. The names on the teamsheet are all in their own rights legends of the game though, and achieved more than that Barca team ended up achieving really.
Having only played 2 thirds of a season I'd still have to agree with you. Phenomenal midfielder.
Yes, even if his average is 6.7, his presence alone makes everyone in our team +0.5 more and all opponents -0.5 more.
You have to give Murtough credit. ETH doesn't work in a vacuum.Remember Rabiot was our only target.... until Casemiro signed out of nowhere?
Kinda feels like we finally replaced Keane, all these years later.
Bloody hell that is amazing. He’s such an amazing footballer. Love him!
He's just obscenely good. Best player in the league for me.
Case talked BS. Sancho was in offside position.
Imo no. Prime Xavi Iniesta Busquet were simply couple levels above the rest. No team were as dominant and could control the match against other top teams like that Barca.
No but their midfield and the rest of the team was far more important to their success than people made it out to be. While all the focus was on the Ronaldo and the attacking players, their base / midfield / fullbacks were crucial and Casemiro is a great example. I didn’t think he was this good
Agree sometime I do feel their midfield was the real reason behind all that success. I didn't think Casemiro was this good either. What a player really.
I don’t give a toss what you have to say or what you think, but I agree.
Rashford who is having a world class season is 6.3
, so yeah 6.7 for Case is fitting hereI do hope so. Every time I think about him I feel a bit sad that he’s not 25.How did we sign him?
I do think (and hope) he's got a good 4 years left in him
Loved one comment from Rawk;
From "he is washed up" to this in a few months. While having Fabinho
My thoughts too. His forward play is the big surprise
I think he's two goals short of equalising his best output in a season
Might actually be better than Maguire in terms of attacking headers.
We need to buy whichever youngster is labelled the ‘next Casemiro’ and hope one of them really is. Eras are built around such players.

From Noble carrying Herrera from the pitch to this.
Amazing. Absolutely amazing.
He's a class act.
Even after everything he's won, he still wants to win more. And people thought he was washed up and Utd was his retirement home.
