A former Manchester United star has blamed a few players in the current Red Devils squad for Casemiro's struggles this season.
The Brazilian midfielder has endured a tough start to the season, although he has featured in all of the club's matches this campaign.
The 31-year-old will be missing this weekend due to an injury he picked up on international duty, but former United full-back Paul Parker says the players around Casemiro need to step up.

"He wants to attack, defend, go into the duels, run with the ball, get into the box and get all the way back to make a tackle in his own box and I get why he is doing it but it's wrong," Parker told Bettors.
"It's like the kid in school who is so much better than the rest so he wants to do everything himself but in the end it makes him look bad, even though he does it from a good heart.
"He does it because the younger players around him are just walking around. Rasmus Hojlund is the only one who is working hard and a lot of the players are being disrespectful to Casemiro by the way they just walk around on the pitch.
"Casemiro is trying his best but it's not working at the moment. Casemiro is a super player, so I have no doubt that he will improve once he gets this stability around him. He needs some help from the players around him."
