The message to Casemiro is clear - he is going to have to earn his place in this Manchester United team.

He is the latest to realise reputation counts for little in Erik ten Hag’s United revolution.
And rightly so for a club that has signed one super star after another during nine years of failure post Sir Alex Ferguson.
