Despite shining in Manchester United's 3-0 Europa League win over Athletic Bilbao on Thursday night, Harry Maguire doesn't think he deserves the Man of the Match award.
Instead, the England international lavished praise on Casemiro - with the veteran rolling back the years with a vintage display in the middle of the park.
United had gone into the clash with many expecting them to struggle.
After all, their season has lurched from one crisis to another over the past nine months or so, having never really got going under Erik ten Hag.

There is, however, silverware at the end of the tunnel.
Casemiro headed United in front, with Bruno Fernandes then netting a sensational brace as the Red Devils boosted their chances of reaching the final of the tournament later this month.
Maguire played a big role in Casemiro's goal, delivering a brilliant cross that led to his team-mate finding the net.
However, the England international doesn't feel he's worthy of the Man of the Match award - with the former Leicester and Hull star insisting Casemiro deserves it instead.

"I think Casemiro was brilliant tonight," Maguire told MUTV. "I definitely believe he was the Man of the Match.
"He was everywhere and he scored a crucial goal as well.
"I think the header was a lot more difficult than he made it look; there was spin on the ball from Manu's header.
"It was a great, controlled finish."

United haven't scored enough goals this term, with the fallen giants faltering under both Ten Hag and Amorim.
Maguire was, however, pleased with the Red Devils' ruthlessness as they stunned the San Mames Stadium into silence.
He continued: "I think first and foremost, we were more clinical. In recent games we hadn't been clinical enough and we hadn't defended our box well enough.
"Goals change games and goals win football matches. They started really well, the intensity of the stadium was unbelievable; the fans were brilliant for them and they started really well and put us under a lot of pressure.

"But we defended our box well and that is what you have got to do at times."
Amorim, meanwhile, lavished praise on Maguire after the United star's brilliant performance.
“He’s a good winger! We all have moments where everything we do in our lives seems wrong, and everything Harry does right now is good for the team," he stated.
“It’s a good lesson for all the players. Sometimes you have some moments when you think, ‘I will never recover from this or that’.

"It’s not just Harry. The history of the game tells you that.
"We were struggling a lot and now maybe everyone is saying that was maybe the best game for us.”
