He took a while to get going after his bans last season so hopefully he'll be up to speed by the time the league starts.
The trouble is when he has to take those 5 matches several times a season due to suspensions. Hopefully that is less of an issue next season. You could argue that he was unlucky with his red cards, but he also did a lot of pointless, silly fouls that got him booked.He's a slow starter, it's evident from last season. Takes him about 5 matches in a row to gain full match fitness.
Oh is Casemiro shit now? Cool cool.
Is there any evidence Amrabat is more dynamic than Casemiro? I would be extremely surprised if Amrabat is anything more than a backup.With the Saudis paying silly money for mercenaries, I’d be letting them know that this fella is available for a daft fee.
Another silly signing because of his name rather than suitability to the league and squad. Amrabat benches him IMO, and the money generated could be used to sign Lavia.
It's quite remarkable how, for some of you guys, a player is only as good as his last game. Just pure, unadulterated black and white thinking all the way.

Looking at the size of Casemiro in preseason training is concerning, he looks at least a stone overweight and now has more chins than a Chinese telephone directory. I maybe wrong but he hasn't quite been the same player since that red card.
He's a weird one because he is capable of incredible passes that Scholes will be proud of but his is very inefficient and that's what makes a great passer.As I have maintained since the moment he joined, he needs someone right alongside him if you want to get the very best out of him given his age and his limitations. He is not a great passer and can't control tempo of games. He was surrounded with two of the best ever passers and controllers at Real Madrid which meant he could focus on his strengths.
Amrabat would be such a huge signing if we can get it done. That's the exact type of player that Casemiro needs alongside.
He will probably find someone else thenI fear that he won't age with dignity.

Nonsense.Looking at the size of Casemiro in preseason training is concerning, he looks at least a stone overweight and now has more chins than a Chinese telephone directory. I maybe wrong but he hasn't quite been the same player since that red card.
He needs rhythm and a build up phase. Simple as thatCasemiro and Eriksen were slow starters last season. I wouldn't be too concerned as they get up to speed over the next month or so.
He appeared 50 pounds over weight! He even ate a whole fried chicken during one of the water breaks !He isn’t remotely overweight. Pure nonsense.
That's why it's a team sport. There's also the streaky archetype. Rooney, Rashford etc. No one's perfect.I don't know if Cas is a slow starter in general. But bringing up the point of having slow starters ( from any amount of breaks - red cards and injuries) is that they are not exactly useful as a key player in this league, especially if we want to challenge for the title.
I doubt Eriksen will be a starter this season.Casemiro and Eriksen were slow starters last season. I wouldn't be too concerned as they get up to speed over the next month or so.
Nonsense.
Nonsense.
Bear in mind that’s some very flattering lighting with all the shadows and also with a pump. I look like that the morning after a night on the town, in bright light, and I’ve barely worked out in a year. He’d be the smallest guy in most commercial gyms. There’s nothing impressive there. Not for a superhero.
