During Manchester United's recent 2-2 draw with Bournemouth, there was a lot of focus on the performance of young midfielder Kobbie Mainoo. Jamie Redknapp, a former player and now a pundit, expressed concern about Mainoo's development at the club, specifically in relation to his teammate Casemiro's poor performances.
Mainoo has been a standout player for United since his first league start last November, and at only 18 years old, he has already caught the attention of many and is even being considered for a spot in England's squad for the upcoming Euro 2024 tournament. However, Redknapp believes that Mainoo's progress could be hindered if he doesn't have the right support from his senior teammates.
In particular, Redknapp pointed out Casemiro's performance in the Bournemouth game as a bad example for Mainoo. He stated that while Mainoo has received criticism, he doesn't believe it's fair and that Casemiro's lack of effort on the pitch sets a negative example for the young midfielder.
Redknapp went on to praise Mainoo's passion and dedication for the club, stating that he is the type of player that any team would want to build around. He also expressed his frustration with other players who seem to lack the same drive and energy.
He then addressed the issue of culture at the club, acknowledging the importance of having the right players with the right attitude. He believes that Mainoo needs positive role models to look up to and emulate in order to reach his full potential. And unfortunately, at the moment, Casemiro is not fulfilling that role.
Redknapp's comments came after he criticized Casemiro's performance, comparing it to a player participating in a charity game rather than a professional match. He emphasized the importance of having good role models in order to succeed, and hopes that Mainoo will not be influenced by Casemiro's lack of effort on the pitch.
As for Mainoo, he has a bright future ahead of him, and with the right guidance and support, he could become a key player for Manchester United. But as Redknapp pointed out, it's important for him to stay focused and not get dragged into the negative culture that seems to be present at the club.
