Won many defensive headers today. Didn’t score from a corner only because we had just one
Had almost triple the defensive contributions of his midfield partner, he was dominant defensively and held things together given how under the cosh we were.
We'll miss his steel, for sure, but him moving on does give us the opportunity to bring in midfielders that can match and even dominate games like this, rather than being dominated like we were by the Chelsea midfield tonight.

Another very good performance from him. Him and Mainoo is not a terrible pairing at all.
Good at relieving pressure at times, but also absolutely the reason for the pressure along with Mainoo.
Our collectively inability to retain the ball for more than 6 passes is infuriating.

As said in another thread, his defensive and aerial contributions (goal scoring and defensive headers) are godly, however he is the reason we are overrun in the middle against any decent side, plus he keeps giving it away even simple passes. One of the best decision we have taken to part ways. We will miss his headers, but overall we will be a better side going forward and good at going toe to toe with teams.
Hope we can secure CL football and then make special atmosphere for his last game at Old Trafford.
Which CM who can dominate Caicedo is available in the summer for United to sign?...
That man is 20 yards of the pace. Good in the air but hes a liability everywhere else.
His ability to always be on the end of headers needs to be studied. How is he such an aerial monster?
This is fairly accurate but with how the premier league is played this year this might be one of the most important statistics there is.
He will be missed in a major way next season unless we invest properly. In my opinion, we'd need two midfielders to replace what he offers.
He doesn't really jump either.
I can't believe how bad the opposition are really. Just stand next to Casemiro on set pieces.
However he played, some people think MotM, some think terrible... but I like him celebrating like a lunatic at the end of the match. He's not even going to be here next year, but he still wants United to win and finish in the CL positions.
Bit like Bastian, seems like United have got under his skin, and he's without doubt a Proper Red. I just wish we could get these world-class CMs while they are still world class. Or better, just about to be.

despite everything and even when he is not doing well in the game, I'd rather him playing badly than seeing Ugarte play, not saying Cas was bad vs Chelsea, just the gulf in quality between Cas and Ugarte is so vast that our level drops 2 to 3 folds, he'll help us get CL football this season, and after that we will need to replace him, not only with a players, but with a different way of playing, geared towards control & possession, because we ain't getting another defensive monster and a set piece monster like him, so instead of getting new players and playing how we play now, the club should consider changing the way play.
I'm gonna miss him a lot. He's mint.
He's worth his wage next season. We will rue him when he's gone.
Man Utd 2:1 Brentford

I love you
Love him
I do already have a first born, but I think it's only right I change his name to Casemiro
He'll understand.
He'll understand.
My hero.
Incredible performance. Worked hard, but him and Mainoo did very well against a busy team who got on the ball a lot and played a lot in the middle of the pitch. Good header too
Joint most tackles of any player in any game this season with 11

Great performance. Love the guy
An absolute beast at set-pieces, both offensive and defensive.
But his passing was horrendous today. Kept on giving it away needlessly.

Get that one year extension signed and drop your wages a bit you fooker
Monster performance. What a fecking player. Legs gone my ass.
One more year!
Such a quality player. What a monster.
Was even getting a bit of his Real Madrid refereeing towards the end there. 
World class
Running out of things to say about him, what a bloody footballer. Given his all with us admirable for a man who’s won it all and made his money, so easy to coast through games and he runs himself into the ground.
Great performance. Loved the experience he showed at the end to go down with those two pushes from the long throw.
Hero
KCAOT. One more year, use him wisely.
Man is vibes.
They ran rings round him at times but he did really well in the last 10 minutes and scored another vital goal. Bought two fouls as well which relieved a lot of pressure.
Love him
16 duels won, goal and those fouls to relieve the pressure at the end. Absolute king.
Without him and Mainoo were shambles
Exceptional today. 9 goals so far this season, could get to double digits at this rate
