Casemiro will be out for several weeks due to a hamstring injury suffered during our Carabao Cup defeat to Newcastle United on Wednesday.

The Brazilian midfielder was withdrawn at half-time due to the issue, and subsequent assessment has revealed a strain that will keep him out for a number of weeks.

    People keep saying he was a panic buy but from what was reported we were in talks with him for a while except that we were still trying to negotiate for FDJ before signing him

      yeah but it’s quite telling the deal only went through after the losses to Brighton and Brentford, to me it seems like ETH was blocking it until he saw what the fuck these players are capable of when he accepted Casemiro who doesn’t fit his style at all
