EPL: Man Utd fans want Casemiro dropped after Olise made in look his age in a 4-0 defeat by Crystal Palace

Manchester United fans have demanded Casemiro retire immediately after he was "sent back to Brazil" by Michael Olise.

The Crystal Palace midfielder opened the scoring at Selhurst Park on Monday as United fell behind early on.

Olise picked the ball up near the halfway line before skipping past two challenges.

His quick footwork even left Casemiro on the floor as he tried to dispossess him.

The Frenchman then drove forward towards the United penalty area before unleashing a low shot into the bottom corner.

He was afforded acres of space after Casemiro had raced forward from central defence, where the midfielder was filling in due to the Red Devils' injury crisis.

Supporters were quick to slam the 32-year-old on social media, with one writing: "Casemiro should retire."

Another added: "Olise sending Casemiro back to Manchester."

A third fan echoed them as they commented: "Olise sent Casemiro back to Brazil there."

Meanwhile, one more also wrote: "Casemiro forgetting he's playing centre-back."

Former United defender Rio Ferdinand had also reacted by posting on X: "Casemiro #StayOnYaFeet."

Jamie Carragher even called for him to be hauled off at half-time in a scathing review of his performance.

Speaking on Sky Sports' coverage, the ex-Liverpool defender said: "They need to bring him off.

"Nothing could be worse than playing Casemiro at centre-back this second half."

Ten Hag has been forced to play the former Real Madrid man in central defence for the last three matches.

United are currently without Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Raphael Varane, Victor Lindelof, and Willy Kambwala due to injury.

Their injury woes have left Jonny Evans, who has only recently returned to fitness, as the only fit senior centre-back.

And it ended in disaster as United were hammered 4-0 by ruthless Palace.
