Paul Scholes has admitted to being surprised by Casemiro's ability on the ball after the Brazilian put in an impressive technical display for Manchester United in the Europa League.
Casemiro, a £70m summer signing from Real Madrid, was introduced at half-time for Scott McTominay as United recorded a comfortable 2-0 win over Sheriff Tiraspol.
Speaking to BT Sport after the game, Scholes said he believed Casemiro to be more of a '[ball] winner' having watched him play alongside technical maestros Toni Kroos and Luka Modric for a number of seasons and was left pleasantly surprised by his impressive range of passing - despite the 30-year-old's impressive haul of trophies.
