“He didn’t have those problems at Ajax with the players he had. Indeed, he believes the egos of some of these stars will soon be an issue in their own right. “He ain’t been given a start in the team when he’s fit and ready. Arriving with a big reputation, he was quickly expected to find a role in the United XI.

This has been a bit of a regular theme for the star since his He wrote in his match report: “Casemiro, well versed in these elite games, was kept on the bench. But throwing him into the derby could have done more harm than good, despite his experience.
