Manchester United were defeated by Liverpool 3-0 at the weekend.
The Red Devils put in a lacklustre performance at Old Trafford against their fierce rivals.
With Casemiro being at fault for two of the goals before being hooked at half-time and replaced by 20-year-old Toby Collyer, who was making his Premier League debut.
Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher has told the Brazilian to ‘leave football before football left him.’
Something that Rio Ferdinand completely disagrees with.

On his podcast he hit-back: “I heard Jamie Carragher say ‘leave the football before the football leaves you’ and I just think that’s highly disrespectful. just think it’s really disrespectful because especially given what my man’s [Casemiro] won, there’s more to it than he’s just made a couple of mistakes.
If you look at the two games before Liverpool he’s been arguably Man United’s best player. I think it’s easier to say that he’s gone, he’s finished, he’s too old. I believe when I look at him, he’s being asked to do a lot of things like play 30-yard balls, dictate the pace. These are things Man United would never have recruited him for.”
Casemiro’s wife leapt to his defence after the criticism taking to Instagram to remind people of exactly how much he has achieved in the game.
