I didn’t think Casemiro was a bad player, he was pretty good when he was in Real Madrid. The same goes for other Manchester United players who were presumed to be “bad” by critics and fans. Their recent performances have shown that it wasn’t the players fault but the tactics of the manager. It seems that they were struggling to understand what Erik Ten Hag wanted them to do. Manchester United were better under Ruud van Nistelrooy. I expect them to maintain the same momentum and winning mentality under Amorim.
Who should be blamed then for the game against West Ham United? The big chances created that weren't converted should be blamed on who? EtH was tryna implement his style of play, a possession based football but the tactics showed Casemiro weakness which was lacking pace and causing his team unnecessary bookings game after game. I see most of you don't understand but I'll keep my thing brief.
The double man midfield of Ugarte and Casemiro is nothing different from that of Mc Tominay and Fred which always gets Bruno Fernandes flourishing. This as well was the same way EtH did during his first season and he did well. When it's time for this coach to implement his new system and it becomes difficult for your best players to adapt, you'll see them fighting the manager behind the scenes again. Won't be boggled.
They just can't make it to the end at the top and the reason is quite clear. Firstly I don't blame Arteta here of course. He has made this team much stronger. The thing is they need a striker immediately, a real one. This is why I think Osimhen could be a target for Arsenal also next transfer window. He can be a great candidate for bringing the title to them.
