Indeed, Casemiro<\/a> was sent off just before half-time, and that made the second 45 minutes much more cagey than they needed to be.<\/p>\n Speaking on the No Tippy Tappy Football Podcast, Sam Allardyce<\/a> has been discussing Casemiro\u2019s<\/a> red card, and he says he\u2019d have substituted the Brazilian as soon as he picked up his first booking, claiming that he continuously makes the same mistakes with his discipline.<\/p>\n Allardyce spoke about Casemiro after his sending off at the weekend.<\/p>\n The former England manager says that Casemiro just isn\u2019t learning from his age, despite his mistakes.<\/p>\n In fact, Allardyce said that Casemiro is a detriment to his team at this point.<\/p>\n \u201cNo, I\u2019d have taken him off straight away,\u201d Allardyce said.<\/p>\n \u201cBecause I\u2019ve seen how many times he\u2019s been sent off.<\/p>\n \u201cI mean, a man of his experience and his age who can\u2019t control himself is, it\u2019s what I call, he\u2019s just an old player. He\u2019s not an experienced player because he\u2019s still doing the same things. He\u2019s still doing the same things all his career that he should have cut out years ago.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd particularly now he\u2019s not as quick as he used to be. And he should be using his experience to make sure that doesn\u2019t happen. But he\u2019s not, he\u2019s just doing the same old things he\u2019s always done, diving in, jumping in.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAnd obviously, because he\u2019s slowing down, he\u2019s getting booked and sent off more. I would have thought his rate is probably one of the highest booked players Man United have. And as talented as he is, and he is on the ball, it\u2019s a detriment to your team.\u201d<\/p>\n Casemiro\u2019s discipline record analysed<\/p>\n Allardyce suggests that Casemiro keeps getting sent off and this is a recurring problem throughout his career.<\/p>\n However, the numbers on this don\u2019t quite add up.<\/p>\n Yes, as a defensive midfielder, Casemiro can sometimes go over the edge, but, he doesn\u2019t have the worst record ever when it comes to getting red cards.<\/p>\n Casemiro\u2019s discipline record analysedClub games633Yellow cards170Red cards7<\/p>\n It\u2019s clear that Casemiro loves a booking, but he\u2019s only been sent off seven times in his career in 633 matches, that\u2019s one red card every 90 games \u2013 around one every two seasons.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, this issue is becoming more and more prominent as he gets older as four of those seven red cards have been for Manchester United, so Allardyce does perhaps have a point here.<\/p>\n Casemiro has been criticised heavily<\/a> as of late, and it may be time for the \u00a370m<\/a> man to come out of the United XI on a more permanent basis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manchester United put in their best performance of the season at the weekend as they beat Chelsea 2-1…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":159927,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[21086,1725,59,349,72813,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-159926","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-casemiro","tag-english-premier-league","tag-gb","tag-manchester-united","tag-sam-allardyce","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159926","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159926"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159926\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159927"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159926"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159926"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159926"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"\/](\"https:\/\/tbrfootball.com\/custom\/themes\/grv-media\/img\/podcast\/btbf-title.svg\")
