Ten Hag hooked the Brazilian during the half-time interval, handing youngster Toby Collyer his debut.

And the Dutchman has opted NOT to included him in the starting XI for this afternoon’s clash with Southampton.

But he’s not been replaced by summer signing Manuel Ugarte, who joined the club from Paris Saint-Germain on transfer deadline day.

Ten Hag has opted to replace the 32-year-old with fellow veteran midfielder Christian Eriksen for this afternoon’s match at St Mary’s.

The Old Trafford faithful were quick to react to Ten Hag’s decision on social media.

One wrote on X: “Casemiro couldn’t start.”

Another said: “After Casemiro’s stinker against Liverpool, Ten Hag can’t risk [him] anymore.

And another said: “Casemiro absolutely had to be dropped.”

Another chimed in: “Ten Hag should get credit for dropping Casemiro despite Ugarte not being ready.

And another said: “Eriksen over Casemiro and Ugarte as DM in 2024?

“[What] the fuck is wrong with Ten Hag and my club?

One remarked: “Eriksen over Casemiro is scary.”

Another chimed in with a series of facepalm emojis: “Drops Casemiro but brings in Eriksen…”
