'Lost his head': Pundit noticed Casemiro going mad at one Man Utd teammate vs Chelsea
Today at 03:55 AM
Manchester United picked up one of their better results of the season on Sunday as they drew 1-1 with Chelsea.
Indeed, after a terrible start to the campaign, United picked up a draw against a team that is challenging for a place in next season's Champions League.
However, despite the result, there were still some serious issues within this performance.
Indeed, United still looked disjointed in a number of ways, especially in the attack as their only goal came from a penalty.
Speaking on Off The Ball, Keith Treacy has been reviewing this game, and he pointed towards Alejandro Garnacho and was critical of his performance.
Garnacho has been praised for some of his showings this season, but Treacy says that the Argentine didn't look like he was trying all that hard against Chelsea.
In fact, the pundit even noticed Casemiro going mad at the winger during the game.
Casemiro was not happy with Alejandro Garnacho
Treacy spoke about what he noticed about Garnacho after doing commentary on the game at the weekend.
The pundit says that both Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro seemed frustrated with Garnacho on separate occasions.
"I referenced this in commentary in the first couple of minutes, Bruno Fernandes was on the left wing and he tried a big die out to get cut out. Garnacho was looking back at Rashford, this is the captain of the football club and he’s struggling his shoulders at him saying, 'what was that?'" Treacy said.
"Garnacho loses the ball again, Casemiro has to go come across and give away a foul and picks up a yellow card and he absolutely lost his head at the young man. And that should have happened in the first couple of minutes because Garnacho’s performance for me within the 90 minutes didn’t really look too interesting in terms of running around."
Casemiro has shouted at Garnacho before
Interestingly, this isn't the first time Casemiro has had a bone to pick with Garnacho.
Last season during a game against Luton, Casemiro again had a go at Garnacho, and Gary Neville picked up on that when he was commentating as well.
"He's ruffled, they're all ruffled. He's supposed to be the experienced one and he's shouting. Who's he shouting at? Garnacho? He's absolutely ripping Garnacho apart, which to be fair, it wasn't Garnacho's fault. The ball into him was fine," Neville said.
As one of the most experienced players in the squad, it is Casemiro's job to set the standards and hold the younger players to account, and it sounds as though he's not afraid of telling Garnacho when he's not been good enough.
Garnacho is United's top scorer this season so far, so he's not the biggest problem player in the squad, but he certainly needs to step his effort levels up at times if he wants to impress the new manager, Ruben Amorim.
