‘Not setting good example’: Redknapp launch attack on Man Utd star over poor display

Jamie Redknapp has voiced out his displeasure over the display of Manchester United midfielder Casemiro during the reds 2-2 draw with Bournemouth.

United continued their poor form by failing to grab all three points against Bournemouth. The reds came back from behind twice in the game and were lucky Bournemouth were not awarded a last-gasp penalty

Redknapp while speaking after the match spoke about Casemiro’s performance and why he should be disciplined.

Speaking about Casemiro performance, Redknapp said “I’ve watched him for years and he’s been one of my favourite defensive midfielders in world football, I’ve loved watching him play.”

“But right now, I watch him, it looks like he’s in Soccer Aid. It looks like he’s playing at such a pace where the game is a bit of fun and there’s celebrities coming on the pitch. No, this is the Premier League.

“You’ve got so much experience and that isn’t really a case of anything else apart from running. I think to myself, [Manchester City midfielder] Rodri, what would Rodri do in that situation? He’d have been flying out there to help his team-mates and that’s what you should be doing. I don’t know why.

“This is my point with Kobbie Mainoo. He’s got everything, got the world at his feet, but you need great role models to get to the top, you need people you are gonna look up to and aspire to be like.

“At the moment, he’s not setting the right examples to the young players around him. I’m a massive fan, but that isn’t good enough. If he’d have sprinted, he would’ve stopped that.”

The draw saw United drop down to seventh place in the table on goal difference with only six games left to play this season
