3. Casemiro Profile
When Casemiro joined Manchester United, he was primarily seen as a traditional defensive midfielder, tasked with breaking up play and shielding the backline.
However, as he’s aged, Casemiro has adapted his game, more comfortable pushed slightly higher.
Erik ten Hag often misused Casemiro, limiting him to a deeper role that didn’t always play to his strengths.
However, under interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, he’s been deployed higher, alongside Manuel Ugarte, allowing Casemiro to mitigate his defensive limitations while contributing more offensively.
Under Ruben Amorim, this could be where Casemiro’s future lies, helping balance the midfield while still offering leadership and defensive nous.
Amorim may look to use this to provide both stability and creativity in United’s midfield.
