It is easy to imagine how Manchester United landed Hunter Renfrow Women Jersey on Casemiros name in the week that followed their shambolic 4-0 defeat at Brentford.United were preyed upon by the Brentford pre s, giving up three chances and two goals from high turnovers as Christian Eriksen a false nine in their previous match ended up as the deepest midfielder and struggled badly.Through two games, no Premier League side allowed more shots following high turnovers than United (eight).At the very least, Casemiro a five-time Champions League winner anchoring one of the great modern midfields at Real Madrid should make United harder to play against.Yet the 30-year-old, whose arrival at Old Trafford was confirmed ahead of Mondays game against Liverpool, po se ses a vastly different profile to the previous two midfielders United very publicly pursued ultimately unsucce sfully.The progre sion from Frenkie de Jong to Adrien Rabiot to Casemiro was not a particularly obvious one, but have the Red Devils now ended up with the right man?No more McFredFew United fans who have seen their McFred midfield repeatedly overrun in Jimmy Graham Youth Jersey recent seasons would complain about the club recruiting an upgrade on Fred.The numbers would suggest that is what they are buying in Casemiro, who is comparable to his Brazil team-mate by several metrics.Only two LaLiga midfielders made more recoveries than Casemiro (230) last season, yet his 8.0 per 90 were topped by Freds 8.7. Fred matched Casemiro for tackles per 90 (both 2.8) and edged him in terms of interceptions (1.4 to 1.3).However, Casemiros physical presence ensured he won 59.7 per cent of his duels, far outperforming Freds 47. J.K. Dobbins Men Jersey 8 per cent.And the Madrid man, crucially, is more effective with the ball once he has won it.Carlo Ancelottis side attempted 43 shots at the end of sequences that started with Casemiro recovering po se sion, seeing the midfielder lead LaLiga in this regard and trail only Marcelo Brozovic (44) acro s Europes top five leagues.Although just 27.6 per cent of Casemiros pa ses were played forward versus Freds 30.4 per cent he was at the heart of so many Madrid attacks.Casemiro played 34 pa ses to players who immediately created chances for team-mates, which comparedvery favourably with Rabiot (12), Scott McTominay (18), Fred (19) and, indeed, Dan Marino Jersey De Jong (22).Carrying Uniteds hopesThere was an obvious appeal to the attempted signing of De Jong, who would have offered something different to the United midfield.Highly skilled with the ball at his feet, De Jongs carries progre sed the play 113.6 metres upfield per 90 last season. Ahead of playing Liverpool, Uniteds five midfielders (Fred, McTominay, Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes and Donny van de Beek) hadprogre sed the ball only 384m combined so far this season or 192m per 90.Casemiro clearly cannot offer this dynamism either, given he carried the ball just 54.3m upfield per 90 last term.And United could seemingly still benefit from a player of De Jongs talents, as Casemiro is used to being able to rely on others in midfield to fulfil this role; he was by far Madrids least progre sive midfield carrier in 2021-22, behind Toni Kroos (80.6m), Luka Modric (85.7m), Eduardo Camavinga (91.1m) and Federico Valverde (133.3m).But considering the difficulties in getting that deal done with Barcelona, Uniteds scattergun approach has at least via Rabiot Melvin Gordon Women Jersey picked out a player capable of helping them both with and without the ball.No Premier League team conceded more goals than United through the first two matchweeks of the season, while they only netted themselves courtesy of an own goal.One man alone may not be able to get Uniteds season back on track, but Casemiro is primed to give it a good go.
