Manchester United legend, Gary Neville, has singled out Casemiro for contributing to Brighton’s late winning goal against the Red Devils on Saturday.

Neville, speaking on NBC, said Casemiro showed a “lack of concentration” by leaving his position at the back post.

Erik ten Hag’s men suffered their first defeat of the season, with Danny Welbeck netting a first half opener, before Amad Diallo levelled in the second half.

Joao Pedro then scored a late header in stoppage time.

Neville said: “I think particularly if you watch Casemiro, it looks to me, I’ve only watched it once back on the replay, it looks like he leaves his position at that back post and runs back towards central midfield.

“But then it leaves an acre of space in that back zone where there are three Brighton players queuing up. Lack of concentration, lack of focus and it does put some pressure on them.”
