I cant really tell what he did. He had 0 Goals and 0 Assists. But i bought him when i was 5:4 in WL. He played 8 games and i ended 12 and 6.
The only loss was in penalties.
If you cant see your DM but you win all your games that is a credit to him right?
So if winning is what you desire you can play him. He will help with that.
You win your games with him
You wont know why
Hey guys!!
So, i was lloking to improve defensive performances in the midfield, with de jong and valverde feeling a bit weak together.
Decided to switch it up to Llorente and our guy, Mr Casemiro.
All in all, if you defend positionally and compact, and don't run with him like a headless chicken, he bosses the midfield!

S
Passing: with the catalyst chem, clear and crisp, precise.
Shooting: Stats look great but i have hime on stay back, plus i didn't get him to score goals!!
Defending: Beast, plenty of great tackles and wins the ball back 90% of the time.
Physicality: EEven though it has been downgraded, beast, great stam and has that thicc body type in game, No one gets through him.
Dribbling: A little bit heavy, just pass it quickly with him. Otherwise, good ball control and great reactions/composure, doesn't make stupid mistakes.
Pace: a little bit slow, but if your wary of it and defend positionally, shouldn't be a problem.
I play a part LaLiga Team and needed a useable stay back CDM as addition to my offensive minded second CDM Nkunku in an 4-3-2-1 formation. For me useable in this context means he needs to play more like a third centre back. He has to be able to make headers and must be physically strong, while being able to play passes who are not complete garbage. For me Casemiro is everything I just mentioned. Expecially his passing and his quite smooth ball handling (for a man of his size and agility stats) were suprisingly very nice.
Only bad point about him is the strange shooting upgrade he got. I played him about 20-30 games and I never once shot at the goal with him, and when I tried using him more offensive than stay back CDM he was useless, because he is way too slow for being a box-to-box midfielder. Apart from that I think he is very much usable.
