'He brings a lot': Ten Hag impressed with Casemiro's three qualities so far

Erik ten Hag on Casemiro's recent performances: "That is why we brought him in. We know he is capable to do that, he proved it in Spain, he proved it in the Champions League, so the highest level.

"Now from game to game you see him [Casemiro] growing, and how important it is for our game. He brings the composure, he brings the organisation and he even scores a goal and then you bring a lot to the team."

"He [Casemiro] could also do it in the Premier League. But it's clear the Premier League is a different league, especially with the intensity, so he needed a short period to adapt to that."

Casemiro has impressed for Man United in the last couple of games since joining from Real Madrid last summer. He grabbed the equaliser in the 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Sunday.

He may, however, be rested for Thursday's Europa League clash with Sheriff.
