Casemiro Snatches Last-Gasp Point at Chelsea
We've all seen the headlines: Cristiano Ronaldo's injury, Raphael Varane's absence, Casemiro's lack of sharpness in midfield. Now, what about Maguire's future at Old Trafford?
Raphael Varane's injury
Casemiro's header in stoppage time rescued a point for Manchester United as Chelsea fell to a fifth straight defeat. The Argentinian rose to head the ball past David de Gea after a mistake by Chelsea's goalkeeper. The game ended goalless after 90 minutes as neither side were able to assert themselves on the pitch. After a foul by McTominay on Broja, Stuart Atwell pointed to the spot. Jorginho jumped to the spot and tucked the ball past David de Gea, keeping Chelsea's hopes alive.
The result means that Chelsea stay fourth in the Premier League while Manchester United are in fifth. The hard-line approach of United coach Eric Ten Hag did not work as hoped, and the Red Devils failed to score a single goal in the first half. Raphael Varane suffered an injury in the first half and punched the corner flag when he realised his injury.
Casemiro's goal in the 94th minute equalised Manchester United. Jorginho had scored the opener for Chelsea after converting a penalty. In the dying stages, Chelsea fans became suspicious when Jorginho failed to score. The goal, however, was a disputed goal, and Chelsea fans were left fuming. Nevertheless, Casemiro's header came at the right time.
Cristiano Ronaldo's absence
The Portuguese winger has been injured for the opening pre-season friendly against Liverpool and has not yet returned to the Manchester United squad. It remains unclear when he will return, but it is highly likely he will insist on a move away from the club when he returns. However, United are already short on attacking options, and the loss of Cristiano Ronaldo will only increase that shortfall.
Cristiano Ronaldo has not attended training this week, and Manchester United have confirmed that he will not be available for the start of the Premier League season. He is currently away with his family and has no intention of returning this summer, and has reportedly expressed a desire to leave the club. However, Manchester United are trying to avoid this scenario by refusing to sell Ronaldo, who is yet to make a decision about his future.

The Portuguese winger has reportedly requested a move to a club in Europe to play Champions League football. However, the Portuguese has a contract with Man Utd until 2023, so the move seems unlikely to happen. However, there is a possibility that Ronaldo will stay in Lisbon a few more days, and then Jorge Mendes could try to force the deal through.
Casemiro's lack of sharpness in midfield
Many Manchester United fans are frustrated by Casemiro's lack of sharpness on the ball. The Brazilian does not use his speed to cut off passes, but instead relies on his anticipation and reading of the game. As a result, Casemiro is far more of a defensive midfielder than a forward. But that is not to say he is a bad player.
Although he has played only one Premier League game, Casemiro displayed defensive nous against Everton. However, his lack of sharpness in midfield is a concern as Manchester United have spent a fortune on ineffective players in other positions. If he is to make a long-term impact, he must be surrounded by a well-developed back four.
Although Casemiro is not a top goal scorer, his presence is vital for United's attack. While his lack of technical ability is a concern, he is more than capable of winning the ball back. In Real Madrid, he played in the midfield three alongside Kroos and Modric. In the United midfield, Casemiro can be a major asset as a set-piece specialist. Last season, United struggled to score from set-pieces and Casemiro's experience in this area will prove invaluable.
Maguire's future at Old Trafford
Harry Maguire has been in poor form this season but is still being picked by Manchester United. The player was booed in the England team and has received much criticism for his performances in recent months. He has also been physically put through the wringer, playing more games than any other player this season. It is not clear what Maguire's future is at Old Trafford.
Manchester United are looking to sign a new centre-back this summer, and there are a few options available. Antonio Rudiger and Ronald Araujo are two players who could potentially be considered. Meanwhile, Phil Jones and Eric Bailly's futures at the club remain uncertain. Meanwhile, Maguire has wreaked havoc on his team-mates this season with his inconsistent performance and indifferent performances.
There have been rumours that the Premier League's top four rivals Chelsea are interested in Maguire, but the England international has remained loyal to his club. The Blues have made several attempts to sign the player, but have so far failed to sign Wesley Fofana.
