Ferdinand, who played for United between 2002 and 2014, believes that Casemiro is one of the best midfielders in the world and should be an undroppable member of Erik ten Hag's side. In the analysis after the match between Everton and Manchester United continued to praise the Brazilian.

Ever since the announcement of the transfer, Ferdinand believed that the midfielder should be playing from the start for Manchester United. Also, he has been a fierce critic of ten Hag after the Dutch manager decided to leave Casemiro on the bench at the Manchester Derby, which ended up in a humiliating defeat by 6-3 against the Citizens.

Not even Cristiano Ronaldo receives that kind of praise

This is what he said about the Brazilian: “He’s the only midfield player in the Man United squad that knows how to defend instinctively and it’s part of his make-up, the best part of his game.” he added. “He didn’t allow (opposition) players to play the ball forward into dangerous areas, that is what you need in your team if you are going to have any stability".
