Written by Adure Media on January 18, 2023
Rio Ferdinand, a former captain of Manchester United, has claimed that Casemiro, the defensive midfielder for the Red Devils, is better than Arsenal’s Thomas Partey.
Using statistics as a major differentiator between the key players, Ferdinand insisted that the Ghanaian is far behind the Brazilian.
Partey isn’t a strong enough defensive player in my opinion to play like Csemiro.
He stated on a podcast, “I don’t think he has the impact defensively for Manchester United.
“I believe the significance to their teams…
Both points of view are debatable.
But when you look at Casemiro’s statistics, he disappears.
However, he feels that Partey has performed better for Arsenal by directing play and having an impact on the game upfield.
Ferdinand stated, “He is doing more for Arsenal on the ball, influencing play and managing the tempo.
