Sent off Tuesday Casemiro was sent off during Tuesday's clash with Galatasaray in the Champions League.
Impact Casemiro was sent off for a pair of yellow cards and will be suspended for an Oct. 24 clash with Copenhagen. The defensive midfielder rode a fine line throughout the match with a number of borderline challenges, as he is wont to do, and finally ended up with his marching orders. Christian Eriksen could see a starting role during Casemiro's suspension.

Takes four shots in loss Casemiro had four off-target shots, created one chance, made four tackles (two won) and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Crystal Palace.
Impact Casemiro had another display with a significant input on the attacking end, pacing his side in shots, with one of his finishes being a dangerous long-range shot that went just wide during the first half. Defensively, we already know what the midfielder is capable of bringing to the table and he'll try to help his side bouncing back during Tuesday's Champions League clash versus Galatasaray.

Bags two goals in UCL opener Casemiro scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 4-3 loss versus Bayern Munich.
Impact Casemiro was at the right place and time to score two late goals for Bayern, but unfortunately for him, his efforts were not enough, and the team lost by a tight 4-3 score. Casemiro is known for his defensive prowess, but he has an eye for goal when pushing forward, too. He has notched three goals across 11 shots in six starts this season, and those are pretty good numbers for a defensive midfielder.

Scores equalizer against Forest Casemiro scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-2 win versus Nottingham Forest.
Impact Casemiro bagged his first goal of the season after his header found the back of the net in the 52nd minute. Most of the Brazilian's contribution actually came in the defensive end of the pitch as generated five tackles (two won), one interception and four clearances in the win. Casemiro will be a normal starter for United this season, but shouldn't be expected to be a goal scorer too often as he normally plays in more of a holding midfielder role.

Five shots in loss Casemiro had five shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Tottenham Hotspur.
Impact Casemiro took five shots (two on target) in Saturday's match, his most in a Premier League match for Manchester United so far. He had a solid defensive performance too, as he won two tackles, intercepted one pass and made two clearances in his full 90 minutes of action. While the five shots are likely an anomaly, Casemiro still joins the attack enough to record a fair amount of goal contributions this season.

Impresses in first year Casemiro racked up four goals and three assists in 28 appearances (24 starts) in the 2022-23 Premier League season. He also added 34 shots, 28 chances created, 90 tackles, 60 clear...
Impact The Brazil international was heralded as Manchester United's best summer signing by several experts, and even that assessment would fell short of how much he meant to Erik ten Hag's team. The star midfielder was the perfect partner for two attacking-minded players such as Christian Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes, and his experience was key in a grueling EPL campaign that saw the Red Devils clinch a UEFA Champions League berth for the 2023-24 season. Firmly in his prime at 31 years old, Casemiro should remain a key player for Manchester United for the duration of his deal, as he's under contract at Old Trafford until the summer of 2026.
