He's the type of person on his own in that club that could have a massive impact." I feel myself that they're not going to win the title but I wouldn't like Casemiro chasing me down. And Neville admitted to being left astonished by [their turnaround since Ten Hag took charge](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/manutd-rashford-ronaldo-ten-hag-29322945). "Obviously he has injury problems sometimes and has done in the last two or three years. He looks like such a dominant force. And Neville believes that Casemiro's influence over the dressing room could be clearly seen during his display. They've got a great spirit, they never feel like they're beaten," Neville added. There was a free-kick that I can't believe I'm saying that, I mean forget Casemiro he wasn't here last year," he told Sky Sports.

Casemiro is a force to be reckoned with at both ends of the pitch and his leadership is clearly dragging those around him up to his sky high standard.
The former Manchester United defender said there are four other players who are more pivotal.
Varane didn’t come on but I do feel like he’s the most important centre-back now particularly in the big matches and that’s why he gets rested for the bigger games. The 32-year-old goalkeeper, left out of Spain’s World Cup squad, is expected to sign a renewal at the end of the season. I can’t believe I’m saying that Varane, De Gea and [Neville](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/gary-neville) included one other [United](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/manchester-united-fc) starter in his selection, admitting his astonishment of the turnaround of some stars given their levels last season.
