Man United fans are fuming at Casemiro after his performance in the pre-season friendly defeat against Liverpool as new footage emerged.

Erik ten Hag's men were defeated 3-0 by Liverpool in the final game of their pre-season tour of the USA, with the midfielder highlighted as a particular weakness.

His performance was summed up when Fabio Carvalho feinted to shoot before dragging the ball back across him, leaving Casemiro on the ground.

A clip of the incident quickly went viral on social media with rival fans revelling in United's loss, with the midfielder at fault again.

Football Insider revealed on 16 July that United remain keen to cut ties with the Brazilian, and are willing to take a "huge" loss on their investment with his sale.

Man United fans savage 'finished' Casemiro as footage v Liverpool re-analysed

The midfielder arrived from Real Madrid in a deal worth £70million just two years ago, but sources say United coaches believe he can no longer cope physically in the Premier League.

Now, fans have also turned on him after his latest showing, with calls for the club to cut ties with him as soon as possible.

His performance against Liverpool was described as "awful" and "finished", as fans insisted he must not start the Community Sheild clash v Man City on 10 August.

Casemiro please retire. Ridiculous we’re going into another season with this guy. Even as a back up it doesn’t make sense pic.twitter.com/FqCkKmSP4z

Casemiro cannot be our main CDM going into this season. Bro does knee slides more than he does tackles

Casemiro is actually finished

There’s no redemption

He needs to call himself to order and leave the game now, not all players play till their late 30s.

Watching Casemiro is just sad at this point.
