EPL: ‘He’s lazy’ – Rooney blasts Man United midfielder

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney has hit out at midfielder Casemiro, branding him as ‘lazy’.

Rooney said this while reacting Leandro Trossard’s goal in Arsenal’s 1-0 victory over Manchester United on Sunday evening.

“He’s obviously shown that he’s a midfield player and he’s not a natural centre-back,” Rooney said in the Sky Sports studio.

“It was maybe a bit naive, there’s not really an angle anyway for Onana to get the ball to him. But then he has to push out and it’s lazy. It’s lazy, he’s lazy.

“The rest of his teammates have pushed out and they get caught by it.

“And even defending the space, he’s not aware of any players around him and then Trossard comes in and gets an easy goal.”
