Manchester United midfielder, Casemiro, has expressed his concern over the team’s recent poor form, stating that it has been giving him sleepless nights. The Brazilian player believes that the focus should be on adopting a “day to day” mentality and not getting distracted by the race for Champions League places.
Currently sitting in sixth place on the table with 49 points, United is 11 points behind fourth-placed Tottenham. Casemiro highlighted the frustration of being 20 points behind the league leaders and admitted that it often keeps him awake at night, contemplating how to turn things around.
“It’s difficult. This is the point that bothers me the most about not fighting for titles,” Casemiro told ESPN Brazil after Sunday’s clash with Liverpool. “Being 20 points behind first place, sometimes I can’t even sleep, trying to think about doing something different. It’s reality.”
The midfielder emphasized the need for the team to focus on the present and not dwell on their position in the table or the Champions League race. He believes that the key to improvement lies in taking each game as it comes and giving their best on the field.
