Casemiro played below par in the match between MU and Tottenham, which resulted in him being scolded by Bruno Fernandes. The unexpected reason behind the Brazilian midfielder’s declining shooting form.
MU was leading Tottenham 2-0 on their opponent’s home ground but failed to maintain the advantage, ultimately settling for a disappointing 1-1 draw in a tense match that had implications for the top 4 race in the Premier League.
Bruno Fernandes scolded his seniors for not playing well in the second half of the MU 2-2 Tottenham match in London
After the match, it was observed that team captain Bruno Fernandes was visibly upset and scolded Casemiro, who had performed poorly in the second half. It was a regrettable incident, and Casemiro himself did not seem pleased, remaining silent when Fernandes spoke up.
Everyone knows how important Casemiro’s role is in the MU lineup since he arrived at Old Trafford from Real Madrid last summer. This has been repeatedly emphasized by Erik ten Hag.
However, besides his influence in the dressing room and on the field, there is another side of Casemiro that has set a record in the Premier League: he is the first player to receive two red cards in a season, resulting in a 7-match suspension.
Casemiro has appeared in 43 matches across all competitions for MU, and according to WhoScored, he commits a foul every 23.8 minutes in the Premier League this season, a noteworthy statistic only surpassed by Joao Palhinha of Fulham.
However, Casemiro’s form has shown signs of decline recently, and in the match against Tottenham, the Brazilian star only successfully completed one tackle and made one interception. He also lost control of the ball 15 times and was dribbled past three times.
The fact that Casemiro received two red cards in a Premier League season may have made him more cautious in tackling.
Manchester United fans have noticed that Casemiro has been somewhat hesitant in his tackles. And they believe they know exactly why his form has declined: fear of getting booked due to the two red cards!
One comment was made: “Casemiro hasn’t been the same since he came back. He is the only player to receive two red cards in the Premier League. It’s clear that it has affected Casemiro’s confidence.”
This opinion received agreement from another substitute player: “The referees have destroyed Casemiro. He has become afraid when making tackles, and his confidence has significantly decreased.”
A third person reflected: “I don’t know if it’s because of the two red cards that he has become less confident or not. But it’s clear that Casemiro is now overly cautious and effectively marked by it.”
Another assessment added: Casemiro is no longer the same player as before receiving the second red card. He has lost his aggressiveness on the field and his confidence has greatly diminished.
