This is why he won 5 Champions Leagues – Owen hails Man United star as World best
Manchester United midfielder, Casemiro has been hailed as the best midfielder in the world and the most outstanding in their 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Tuesday.
Former Manchester United midfielder, Owen Hargreaves believes that the Brazilian has not played any bad game since his move from Real Madrid to Old Trafford last summer.
According to Hargreaves, Casemiro makes everyone better when he plays in the midfield, protecting the back four and providing killer passes for the strikers.
The 37-year-old returned to the Manchester United lineup on Tuesday after playing all Brazilian games in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. He provided the assist for his compatriot, Fred to score Manchester United’s last goal of the night
“This is exactly how he plays all the time. But the point is, the great players are consistent all the time and that’s what he is. He’s so consistent,” Owen Hargreaves said on Premier League Productions.
“I haven’t seen him have a bad game for Man United. Not one. He does the job of two[players]…Casemiro at the base of that midfielder, he makes everyone better.
“The back four are more comfortable because Casemiro is there, the attackers are more comfortable because he plays the passes.
“I think there’s a reason this guy has won five Champions Leagues, there’s a reason he starts for Brazil, there’s a reason Neymar said he is the best central midfield player in the world. This is because he makes everyone better.”
