Jamie Carragher has conceded he misjudged Casemiro after the Brazilian delivered a standout display in Manchester United's thrilling 3-2 triumph against Fulham at Old Trafford on Sunday. "It is now fair to say the football has not left him considering what he's producing this season in the Premier League," Carragher told Sky Sports after the match. Jamie Carragher had blasted Casemiro two years ago and said he needed to "leave football" | Carragher's change of heart comes nearly two years after his scathing assessment of the midfielder went viral. "I always remember the saying 'leave the football before the football leaves you'. The football has left him," Carragher said at the time.
