Manchester United legend's surprising low blow to Bruno Fernandes

Manchester United defeated Chelsea in the 37th round of the Premier League and thus ensures its participation in the next edition of the UEFA Champions League. The Red Devil team achieved the great goal of the season, which is to return to the highest European competition and, in addition, is in the final of the FA Cup to be played next June 3 against Manchester City.

However, despite all the excitement of the Manchester team, it seems that many have also been critical of the performance of a squad that has seen a number of signings in the last season. Among their critics is Manchester United legend Gary Neville.

According to the former English player, the great cause of the recent success of the Old Trafford side is not the squad in general, much less the actions of captain Bruno Fernandes or striker Marcus Rashford. For Neville, the real reason for the team's qualification to the next UEFA Champions League is because of one of the new reinforcements that arrived at the club this season.

Manchester United have finished a more than worthy campaign. Champions of the Carabao Cup, third place in the Premier League and also in the final of the FA Cup. For this reason, many recognize the work of Erik Ten Hag in what has been his first full season in charge. However, Gary Neville believes it is down to someone else.

Which player is the most important at Manchester United for Gary Neville?

According to the words of the legendary former Red Devils player, it is precisely Brazilian midfielder Casemiro. "Without Casemiro, United would not be back in the Champions League," said the now sports commentator. The player arrived last summer from Real Madrid for around 80 million euros.
