"Casemiro had a difficult spell towards the end of his second season at Man Utd, prompting Carragher to suggest he was finished in the Premier League and urging him to leave the football before the football leaves him."
"Casemiro admitted it was big disrespect towards him considering the career he'd had, though the pair also enjoyed a joke at Carragher's expense as Casemiro couldn't remember his name."
"Ferdinand was hugely impressed by this as Casemiro has of course won five Champions League titles, so could be forgiven for thinking that there's little more he can learn in the game."
"Ferdinand also goes on to tell Casemiro that he'd heard about his strong mentality when speaking to one of Ruben Amorim's coaches."
Rio Ferdinand asked Casemiro about Jamie Carragher’s earlier claim that Casemiro should leave top-level football after a difficult spell at Manchester United. Carragher had suggested Casemiro was finished in the Premier League and warned that he should go before football left him. Two years later, Casemiro remained at United and was preparing to depart after his contract expires, having regained his best form and earned a cult-hero status. Casemiro described Carragher’s comments as big disrespect given his career, and the pair also joked because Casemiro could not remember Carragher’s name. Ferdinand praised Casemiro’s strong mentality, learned through advice from Ruben Amorim’s coaching staff, and highlighted his relentless training effort to improve and return to the team.
