Casemiro will miss Manchester United’s meeting with Arsenal on Sunday.

The Brazilian midfielder was walking on a tightrope going into tonight’s match against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park because he was one booking away from a suspension.

80 minutes into the game at Selhurst Park, Casemiro is forced to make a tackle on Wilfried Zaha outside the box. I don’t think we can have any complaints over the booking.

Casemiro will get a two-match ban if he receives another five yellow cards in the Premier League between now and the end of the season.

This will lead to a debate among United fans as to who Ten Hag should start in midfield on Sunday.

Anyone think Lisandro Martinez can do a job in midfield?
