Jamie Carragher has acknowledged Casemiro's improvement at Manchester United, with the Brazilian netting four goals in 15 appearances under Ruben Amorim despite being told to 'call it a day'Jamie Carragher has been forced to address previous criticism of Manchester United star Casemiro. Fair play, he looks a different player physically.
I remember that night at Crystal Palace, he looks almost a stone lighter."To still be playing for Man United, he was never going to move on with the contract he's got, I think that's the thing with the deals since they last won the league title, that deal was a ridiculous one."It's not going to be renewed, that's the first area they look at bringing reinforcements in in January or the summer."Casemiro has become a key figure in Amorim's squad, a far cry from when Carragher suggested the Champions League victor should "call it a day".The midfielder came under fire after a lacklustre performance that saw Crystal Palace net four goals against Erik ten Hag's team. Michael Olise bagged a brace while Jean-Phillipe Mateta and Tyrick Mitchell added to United's woes.The victory marked Palace's first league double over United in 20 years, further deepening the gloom for ten Hag's side as it confirmed their failure to qualify for European competition.In 2024, Carragher stated: "I think Casemiro should know tonight that he should only have another three games left at the top level.
At this top level, he needs to call it a day at this level and move."The level of that player, he should not be putting himself through this."He is too good of a player to be putting in a performance like that being laughed at by Crystal Palace. He needs to call it a day."
