Does Casemiro deserve his criticism for struggling vs. Liverpool? | ESPN FC

but obvious we're gonna start at Old Trafford between because they keep telling us what massive clubs United and Liverpool are and massive Clash for half an hour I thought United kind of have this they're they're hanging in there they're going blow for blow with Liverpool um and then kasmo gives the ball away twice and it's 2-0 and it feels like game over it and casmiro all right he's obviously responsible he's a scapegoat it it Chimes nicely with ugat coming in in M tal drove the point home even more by taking him on at halftime and bringing on that kid for his debut yeah yeah I think he's right to obviously blame him for the mistakes the first the first one I mean the second one he hangs on on the board too much doesn't really scan doesn't see L Diaz behind him the first one is a terrible choice of passes that he doesn't have to make is there a choice to pass or does he M hit it me either way it's his fault but like yeah no no he doesn't Mish hit it but it's just that Liverpool reads it well I think he should play right and doesn't come back to that left hand side um and then after that there's still a long way to go for Liverpool to score the two goals and it's still defensively not good enough from United but of course Kazmir is to blame there is it enough to take him off halftime yeah maybe well I don't think that United were much better without him anyway but but ker did okay and then overall I think Liverpool was still too good and too clinical in a sense because we saw zeri with Chen is not taking them there's not merch in between and you're right for first half hour United were well organized didn't do much with the ball but were well organized after that it just all collapsed so when you break it down in terms of chances I I I watched the game and then I rewatched the highlights last night and I thought weird as it sounds Yos xer could have had a hattick now uh Liverpool were dominant I'm not saying that it should have Liverpool could have scored more chances I don't know if I should be and xer we said this before is in onor Ox players he's a different player yeah uh he needs to be treated a certain way to get the best out of him I don't know if I should be praising xer for the fact that he got on the end of three chances two of them after their three n down no no so we should be slaughtering him for missing them yeah okay even even not as a clinical Striker there's chances that he has to finish the the header especially I mean the header is in the sixy Box come on yeah you OB the second one you're right his movement is good but it's it's a more difficult one the first one is not not acceptable all right afterwards people got very excited Muhammad Salah obviously Liverpool three wins on the spot on the Trot no goals conceded seven goal scores no goals allowed they seem to be getting better game after game in many ways which I think is the other thing um salak comes out gives this interview saying that like oh this is my last year and he's referring to the last year of his contract yeah uh some like oh he's saying goodbye but he did point out nobody from the club has spok spoken to me about a new deal we'll see what happens I'm paraphrasing here that yeah um I is this a big deal it's not a big deal is it I mean that would talk about it he's just saying the reality of it yeah factually he could not have said I've got three more years to enjoy here so he said I've got one more on my contract he might sign a new one he might not we don't know he's they need to talk to him if they're going to do that yeah and are you surprised they haven't yet obviously as we've said before trend is also in this last year and so is Virgil so it's not just the the difference is that over the summer they signed somebody who plays the same position as as Muhammed Salah and also is on a big contract we're going to break this down in Cas a little bit later on um about that United midfield ugat was there not wasn't able to play uh United got some stick because you've been wanting him all summer fabrio Romano told us like in early July that oh it's done well not done but you know just about yeah yeah were they just haggling over Minor Details 1 million here would it would have been better I guess is what I'm driving at if You' brought ugar in would have been worth it to you if maybe you spend a little more and you bring him in so that he can do the whole preseason so that he can settle in with minu and and whatever yeah I mean you could not have done the preseason because it was obviously a America but but still what I don't understand is that this a player they wanted from very early on as we said they also knew from very early on that PhD were not going to Burge on the amount it was 50 million Euros plus 10 in bonuses because PhD bought him for 60 and they didn't want to lose out any money first offer from United 35 million there you go driving a hard bargain again these are things that I think you you might want to review uh as well internally we're going to break this down a lot more on the gabin jores podcast [Music]
