    I know Casemiro is loved by all, I like him as a player too, but, as witnessed against Sporting, our fortunes defensively just cannot rest on this player alone, they overran us Casemiro or no Casemiro, we play best and are much more solid when we have a front three that helps out the midfield, against Sporting with Ronaldo back to just hanging about mostly ( for whatever reason) and Benz not looking ready, we absolutely suffered, it's plain to see,

    Yes having Casemiro helps, but against tough or any team what we need the most is what ZZ kinda managed to achieve last season, which is for that front three to help out more on the defensive side of the ball, that to me is far more important than just having Casemiro, for sure it's a combination of the two that makes us harder to beat, that's only logical, 10 helping with defense rather than 7, or one super duper defensive mid, it's another reason I like watching the subs so much , Morata, Lucas, Marco, they are running all the time, on both sides of the ball

    Giving Casemiro the title 'key player' is very overrated. Defensively he's a beast and one of the beast, but a keyplayer in our system? Nah.

    Totally agree with Digital. Our forwards need to defend high and not defend 'back'. When the opponents defense go the ball our forwards walk back to 'defend', but they should defend higher and pressure their backline.

    imo, the midfield and attack under Carlito was the best I saw since Del Bosque. 4 man midfield (Modric, Kroos, James, Isco) and two attackers. This team didn't need a casemiro, because we had more the ball. But now teams like Sporting and Osasuna are giving ball possession in Bernabeu, which is absolutely unthinkable. Zizou needs to get his sht together, cuz these past games were meh.

    When you consider the style and contributions of our other midfielders, I think it's fair to say Casemiro is key, at least until Kovacic too can show he's got similar kinds of hustle.

    The best part about Casemiro isn't even what he does, it's what he allows Kroos and Modric to do.

    Cassemiro is a key for Kroos and Modric to bloom

    Who do you have backing Casemiro up at DM to preserve the defensive structure of the team?

    Kroos will play his position and one of James, Isco, or Kovacic will be the 3rd midfielder along with Kroos & Modric.

    Crazy isn't it? Coentrao is so close to being healthy I can't to wait to see him back in action. I bet its still a few weeks before we see him though.

    I guess Kroos will play that role. Its time for Kova to prove himself.

    I would like to see: Kovacic - Kroos - Modric

    I love James but I honestly dont like him in the midfield 3, I would put Isco in the midfield 3 before I would put James.

    Nothing better than a 35 mil. backup with 6 mil. wages.

    James wasn't signed as a backup though. Kante would have been. James' first season in Madrid was better than anything Kante has ever played in his life so i don't know why that is relevant?

    Because you mentioned price in the first place. That really is irrelevant really. We needed another extra defensive midfielder for this reason that's the point.

    No. Kante easily can be even better than Casemiro. he would have been perfect player to compete with Casemiro.

    Of course, Casemiro is the first one to get a lengthy injury in the season. Just our luck

    Of course. A 5 mil. Canterano competing with an up to 40 mil. "new Makelele". WE sign Kante, Casemiro is playing the role Morata seems to play now. Coming on to say the day when it's too hot to handle.
