Roy Keane claims Manchester United would have been better off playing a youth team player instead of Casemiro in Monday night’s horror show away to Crystal Palace.
And speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, Keane said: “He was isolated by his own fault, because he wasn’t getting people around him, and you have to take responsibility for that. But if we’re talking about it being a team game, structure-this and structure-that, playing between the lines, that’s all well and good but when you’re up against it, you need your teammates around you. There’s the whole idea of playing in a team.
"I looked at Casemiro the other night and he was having a bad time, but he wasn’t getting any help from the other players. If your legs are going a bit, you get people around you and that’s where he should’ve done better with his experience. But defensively, he got no help from anyone whatsoever. Defensively they were all over the place.
“But when he’s also out of position against a team who have a couple of good players who can go by people even in their prime, it compounds the mistakes. My frustration was with the players around Casemiro – help him out! Jonny is a centre-half and the full backs should just sit in.”Meanwhile, Keane’s former team-mate Andrew Cole has hinted that United will regret offering Casemiro a four-year deal.
