Former Arsenal attacker, Ian Wright, has lambasted fellow pundit Jamie Carragher for what he describes as disrespectful comments aimed at Manchester United midfielder Casemiro following the Red Devils crushing 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Monday.
Under the helm of Erik ten Hag, Manchester United plummeted to a new nadir on Monday night as Crystal Palace secured an extraordinary victory, spurred by Michael Olises double and strikes from Jean-Philippe Mateta and Tyrick Mitchell.
This historic triumph marks Crystal Palaces inaugural league double over Manchester United, intensifying the spotlight on Ten Hags tenure.
Carragher, analyzing Uniteds performance on Monday Night Football, labeled it embarrassing and singled out Casemiro for critique, suggesting that the Brazilians time at the top level is dwindling.
However, Wright vehemently disagreed with Carraghers assessment, asserting that Casemiro would excel in a more cohesive team environment.
Speaking on his podcast, Wright expressed his dismay at Carraghers remarks, emphasizing Casemiros initial appeal in joining Manchester United and his unexpected predicament within the disarray of the team.
Wright contended that Carraghers comments fail to acknowledge the challenges Casemiro faces amidst Manchester Uniteds current state and dismisses the notion that the Brazilians career is on a downward trajectory.
