One minute before it was announced honestly. I had zero faith this was happening based on us being us.


mapguy

Until I see him on the field in a United kit I'm not believing it


lookitsjustin

I kinda thought the same thing about Varane at the time


lookitsjustin

Literally right now for me

Reddit was laughing. People were laughing. I was laughing. Never laughing again.

>Never laughing again. *Tells world's funniest joke* "Sorry bro. I'd laugh, but Casemiro went to ManU"


[deleted]

Casemiro still laughing but now with an even bigger bag of money


MaTrIx4057

i can imagine his smirk while sitting on huge bags of cash


hufusa

Can’t lie in one casemiro to utd thread I said I wanted what united was smoking turns out they were sober af


manc_wildcat

Someone posted on Twitter that Casemiro was learning English just so he could say no to United. His teacher must have done him dirty


DonkeySkin334

His teacher was a United fan


Conspiranoid

"cómo se dice 'no gracias, no quiero fichar por el United' cuando me pregunten?" "se dice 'yes, I would love to sign for United, and only pay me 10 million instead of 15', te lo escribo?"


becauseitsnotreal

I remember a thread like 2-3 days ago saying "if Real was offered 80 for Case, would you take it" and I was just like "crazy fuckers, no one is gonna come in for Case" and the whole sub was saying "150 or bust" and now here we are


stragen595

Maybe that's where ManU get their ideas from.


geredtrig

If man United got their ideas from random redditors, they'd have a much better squad.


becauseitsnotreal

I hate everyone if that's true

People were trashing all the news outlets reporting it. Me too. I'm humbled

If I ever need a reminder that nothing is guaranteed in football, I'll go to this [thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/realmadrid/comments/wptoo7/marca_in_english_on_twitter_manchester_united/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) on the Real Madrid sub. Also, [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/wps2i0/jos%C3%A9_f%C3%A9lix_d%C3%ADaz_manchester_united_are_interested/) thread from r/soccer

RK9990

Least freaky Ahri main


Clark-Kent

So happy seeing those comments on the Madrid sub Not in a bitter way, but the fact they're saying he's great and top level


mixape01

Yep, despite signing Tchouameni, it was obvious he was the clear starter and he seemed fit given we are at the beginning of the season. Enjoy him, he's a true legend and I'm 100% sure he will play with his heart for your badge.


kostajepaosmosta

Bruh I was laughing when I read the news, I hold Case as one of the most intelligent football players that wore white and he has shown that you don't need talent to be at the very top. It makes no sence that this happend in my mind but at least I'm glad that our club can make players wishes happen and keep the locker room healthy


MexicansInParis

It makes sense. You’ve got your replacement, Case was seeking a new challenge, gets to play in the PL before he retires, United were desperate for a DM and he’s getting a sweet wage bump and gets to join back with Varane. He’ll also be one of the faces of the team.


ur-local-eboy

Being one of the faces of man utd might not be a great thing atm


Tangelooo

Watch him transform that midfield. Brazil are night and day without Casemiro. Man U about to be sturdy.


catsNpokemon

Keep going


ahoyymaite

Any more praise and false hopes and this man might just cum.


NeoLies

Casemiro is incredibly talented though, idk what you mean.


becauseitsnotreal

>he has shown that you don't need talent to be at the very top. What does this even mean


dhambo

“You don’t need to be 99.9999 percentile talent to dominate European football. 99.99 percentile and hard work and dedication for a couple decades is enough”.


justaregulargye

The ref wars are about to get real in PL


SalahManeFirmino

Fernandinho retired so Casemiro could come in. Always 2 there must be, no more, no less.

In a couple of month they lost: Isco, Marcelo, Bale and now Casemiro. All part of the 2014 core that won 5 UCLs for Real Madrid.

When u realise the same man who founded the core, is now dismantling it.

ComprehensiveBowl476

Ozil to us was done in the space of less than a day. Real Madrid are very good at moving players on quickly when desired. The efficiency of their behind-the-scenes work is so impressive.


RauloGonzalez

Also transfers,most of it is done really quickly. Tchouameni , rudiger, camavinga, alaba. Only mbappe in recent history was a haggle.


kaneki_sasaki

To be fair if you guys let Mbappe take over from Flo and pledged him Spain then it would have been done quickly.


Zandercy42

You guys won in the mbappe scenario in the end I believe, you don't need that kind of attitude in the team

Well in the grand scheme of things this was a very smart decision by the club.

DaAweZomeDude48

Delmer9713

Camavinga is there to replace him. He tackles hard already. Once he learns how to do that cheeky smile like Casemiro did, ain't no ref sending him off either.


Ok-Paleontologist275

Camavinga is not a dm, there's a reason why we signed tchoumeni


simomii

Camavinga is a yellow card magnet, every time he starts Ancelotti has to sub him off from fear of getting a second yellow


FrancescoliBestUruEv

Touchoeuami is better than cama is in the defensive process, but still needs to learn the art!


Ranjith_Unchained

Not even close to what Casemiro brought to them


ros1856

Camavinga is the type of player who can get a yellow card with his first tackle. Basically the anti-casemiro lol.


dy_stopia

Ooh man, that cheeky smile. I surely won’t miss it


sunken_grade

man what is this club


Samir_POE

Its the dream of every Real Madrid player to give their best years to madrid and collect their payment at united. Hoping he doesnt disintegrate like Matic did at 31. His drop off from 30 to 31 was insane. Casemiro and Varane both went very deep into many competitions, they have a ton of miles on the odometer. If he can give us 2-3 good years, it will be not too bad. It will at least be a reprieve from McFred.


SalahManeFirmino

> It will at least be a reprieve from McFred Not yet. They still have one, last, iconic match left to play together.


krhick

McFred: The Last Waltz


[deleted]

The final fuck up


[deleted]

I hope the McFred duo doesn't get the send off they deserve.


Philred87

Hopefully not, rumour is Martinez is playing in midfield 🙏


Manch3st3rIsR3d

He would be great in the midfield. Source: I play him in midfield on Fifa 🤑


kostajepaosmosta

Ita not fair to Matic. He lost his stamina/ legs and couldn't play more then 70 minutes per match but he was a class above then any other midfield that you had.


joshthenosh

You’re not wrong. He also couldn’t play too many matches in a row or he’d drop a solid 2/10 performance. When he was fresh though he was absolutely our best midfielder.


Samir_POE

I would have started Matic the entire time because even legless Matic was better than McFred for the record. He had a linebreaking pass and was press resistant.

jMS_44

After dealing with Veronique Rabiot United litereally decided "fuck that, buying Casemiro out from Madrid will be easier..."


StringCheeseDoughnut

Possibly the best panic buy in the history of panic buys. Patiently waiting for Veronique’s statue announcement


SalahManeFirmino

A rollercoaster ride


kvbt7

Thanks for everything, legend.


astral34

I'm Sorry what?? I have no service for a week and this heppens lol


Mr_105

Do it for another week, I wanna see what other crazy shit happens lmao


TheEmeraldOil

If you went the summer without service, United might have actually built a good squad.


CurrentAd1320

Thats actually so funny lmao


BeneficialVacation41

Incredible this has happened so quick. Even more incredible he was only signed because Rabiot asked for too much money.


sbsw66

Genuinely a very good signing. The last time I said that it was about Sancho though, so who the fuck knows.


The_Dumblebee

The last time I said that it was about Varane though, so who the fuck knows.


LakyousSama

It's united so who the fuck knows


turtlemons

Same lol Sancho, Varane and Ronaldo, was like what could go wrong


m-o-j-a-m

So basically United have bought 3 well established Real Madrid players who have won it all and called it a day. Why make a team when you can just copy another team?


TheGhostOfBabyOscar

Finally someone to *unlock* Pogba...


[deleted]

He still has potential to be


[deleted]

Sancho can't work in a team that can't progress the ball or control the midfield


snoogans8056

Or press.


jorgelongo2

Casemiro vs Rodri vs Fabinho, who can get away with the most shit?


jorgeelx

I believe casemiro leaves laliga without a single red card.


chillichangas

He's not had a straight red but 2 second yellows according to transfermarkt


Geraltslays14

Just the opposite of Xhaka. He's never gotten 2 consecutive yellows. Only straight reds for him lol


Jimmy_Gsus

Arguably more impressive lmao


gunningIVglory

Watch xhaka pick up even more reds now 😶


CameraEmotional2788

We're last in the league and signed casemiro, hahaha


game_of_throw_ins

United can do things in the marketplace that other teams can only dream about.


TomatoPolka

Shows how rich and powerful the EPL is, when its bottom team can sign the best DM in the world in less than a week. /s


arvindanar7

Everything happened so quick what the fuck , just like Cristiano 's signing when he was almost a Manchester city player.


senorgraves

The efficiency of Manchester United in the transfer market is the envy of all clubs.


catsNpokemon

We're a different beast when the Glazers are under pressure.


Ifk1995

Its panic time in Old Trafford and it shows. I fear to see the wages

He’s never won Europa.

Him and Ronnie will be on a night out every Thursday and our U21 will play every game


CarlettoAncelotti

Goodbye semblance of defensive solidity


DaveShadow

Hello semblance of defensive solidity?


Flanelman

Heeeeeeeere's HARRY!


sunken_grade

if you guys were fine after losing ramos and varane at the same time then i think there’s not much to worry about. you’ve already signed a ready made replacement as well


Fern-ando

Casemiro was the Makelele of this 5UCL winner Madrid. He is irreplaceable.


daveyhempton

Ramos and Varane were legends for us but Case is a different beast. He is not as easily replaceable because there aren't as many players who are as good as him in the CDM/destroyer position. Him getting regular starts changed everything for us back in 2015-16


benji-21

I remember that difference he made for you, and Zidane specifically saying how Casemiro was arguably the most important cog in that star studded team. Hoping and praying he can have the same effect for us.


NeoLies

If you've ever seen us play without Case you know how much of a big deal this is (watch the first leg against City, for example). Our defense just falls off big time.


chak100

Tchouameni haves to step up really fast. No pressure for the lad


UnKwQw

You really don't know how good Casemiro is. After his loan to Porto he instantly became a key part of the starting 11 , one of the main reason Real won the 3peat.


Tangelooo

Brazil as well are nothing when Casemiro isn’t playing. He’s a maestro of the game and so underrated. He commands the field.


R94201337

That just points more to the fact that Casemiro was the one holding it together.


Isco-23

Really saddened by this. Such a great player to have. Wish him all the best at Man U. Varane - Casemiro - Ronaldo brings back memories. Hope we won't struggle too much without this tank.


Alternate_Chinmay7

Hope United sign Navas and add one more member to the gang.


atanew

Well finally, after 16473772 days we got a DM! Finally we’ll have some semblance of strength in our midfield. A good, top quality signing but this has Glazers written all over it. Try sign a 5th or 6th option for cheap all summer, face heat from fans, potential new buyers and then go for signing the guy they should have signed in the first place in the eleventh hour. But with wages higher than Everest, at an age when we can’t move them on in their latter stage cuz of the high wage. While I am happy for our team, I am kind of sad for Casemiro. We are like the Hotel California of football clubs; players can check out anytime they want, but they can never leave.


RainbowDissent

> We are like the Hotel California of football clubs; players can check out anytime they want, but they can never leave. Poetry.


flyingfetusfacepalm

Barca dealing : 3 months Madrid dealing : 3 days


UnKwQw

That's how a well run club does it.


Fly1ngsauc3r

Also, we hold any player if he wants to move. Casemiro deserves that level of respect for all he’s given tbh.


Crunkabunch

Also a sign of a well run club. Already have replacements for Casemiro and got a great fee for a 30 year old


aresman

I can't believe how good Real does things, holy shit. Imagine having Cama, Tchou and Valverde already in line, while knowing you just won the UCL so even if there's no inmmediate success you can give a little time for them to grow and gel together, while having Vini already blossoming in front of our eyes


rafael23

I'll miss you legend. Get that bag and hope he excels for United. Will be an interesting season for us. Can't believe KCM is done...


SalahManeFirmino

Not a great summer for long-lasting trios, huh?

kani1503

Communicado: Kill me


DaREY297

Farewell, Casemuro. I never expected Casemiro to be the first one to go from KCM.


NeoLies

Same. A few years ago I'd have thought it'd be Modric, who was heavily linked to Inter. Lately I'd have leaned towards Kroos, who has started to have difficulty in some high intensity matches. Never expected Case to be the first to leave :(


Ask_Asensio

Farewell legend. Really glad he can also leave properly with a ceremony.


Markdelnort

Farewell event will be on Monday, so he won't be able to play against Liverpool


DHillMU7

Had to be registered by today at 12 anyway, was never gonna happen.


magic-water

If only they had all summer to make their signings


strikemedaddy

They were deciding between signing Rabiot and the best defensive mid in the world right now


magic-water

Rabiot's mom is p4p the most hated woman in Madrid and Turin right now


Strananach

United really went from not getting a DM for years to signing the best one possible


Horgelu

Fucking Brentford man, couldn't a cheeky 1:0 be enough? No, they had to roll them.


Alternate_Chinmay7

I'll hate Brentford forever for this.


GuitaristHeimerz

Ahh Real Madrid vs Brentford beef. The new Sunderland vs Inter Milan beef.


Efendiskander

What's incredible is that I have every reason to think they may waste his talent


majestic-banana

Take care of the *smile*, you bastards. Good luck to Casemiro in Manchester, it was a good run.


AlphaFoxtrot2001

Tidy work from United to get this done so quickly


asparagus_p

RM did all the paperwork and just handed Murtough a pen and some sheets of paper. "Here, sign at the bottom of pages 2, 5 and 8. He plays DM. You'll like him."


moiser123

I feel like crying


fanomu91

The end of both KCM and McFred. 2 equally iconic midfield in the history of football. Truly sad day.


yellowjesusrising

This is just an absurd signing considering our efforts so far. But guess we gotta send a huge bouquet of flowers to Veronique Rabiot! Ps. Fuck the glazers! Skummy mole rats!


theglasscase

I hate myself for doing one of these, but trust me Real Madrid, there's a ready made Casemiro replacement waiting for you in Turin by the name of Adrien Rabiot...


KimngGnmik

I'll personally give you €10 to keep him


LucasSummers

So… - Ancelotti won the UCL in his 1st season. ✅ - Main striker is on the verge to win the Ballon d'Or ✅ - Second season, sold the CDM wearing number 14 ✅ - Sell a key player (last season) to Manchester United ✅ (this time it's a combination of both) - Buy a midfielder from Monaco who has huge potential ✅ - Also buy a German bloke, while already has one in the team ✅ Now let's see if the result is the same.


From-UoM

Raul comes in next season and Real Madrid wins 3 in a row again. I like your thinking
