Ruud van Nistelrooy took charge of The Red Devils for their last-16 Carabao Cup clash at home to Leicester on Wednesday, with Ruben Amorim still negotiating a deal to become the permanent successor.

And things got off to the perfect start for the Old Trafford faithful as Casemiro bagged a rocket from 25 yards out to give Man Utd the lead after 15 minutes.

The Brazilian midfielder received the ball a long way out as Alejandro Garnacho created the space, before Casemiro curled a stunning effort into the top corner.

And fans could not believe what they had seen.

One said: “No word to describe that goal by Casemiro.”

While another simply replied: “Unbelievable 👏🏻.”

A third added: “What an insane goal.”

And a fourth responded: “Okay that finish from Casemiro was sublimeee! Wow wow wow!”

Moments before half-time, Casemiro found the back of the net again from close range to make it three in two games.

The goals came just hours after Gary Neville had labelled Casemiro and Antony two of the worst signings in the club’s history.

Speaking on “It’s Called Soccer!”, he said: “The performances have been really poor this season, the results have been shocking, the league position is terrible.

“His legacy is definitely winning two trophies in two seasons through a very difficult point.

“The recruitment to be fair has been appalling for 10 years and he’s been a victim of that himself.

“I think he oversaw two of the worst transfers Manchester United will ever have made in the signings of Casemiro and Antony.

“They were signed for £140-150m in a panic after the Brentford and Brighton losses. I hope I’m wrong, I hope Casemiro can do a great job for the club for four or five years and I hope Antony comes good.

“But those signings are why United have had to go back into the transfer market and sign [Manuel] Ugarte and other players.

“That was the ultimate in poor management from those above Erik ten Hag. That should have been one big fat no when those two players became available for those prices and those salaries.”
