Man United fans refuse to accept Jamie Carragher's U-turn after Sky Sports pundit admitting to being wrong

Casemiro has since bounced back to become a key player for United again and, against Fulham on Sunday, was outstanding.

The 33-year-old scored his side's opening goal, heading home from a pinpoint Bruno Fernandes delivery.

And Casemiro then provided the assist for Matheus Cunha's goal, which put the Red Devils 2-0 up.

Speaking on Sky after the game, Carragher waxed lyrical over the former Real Madrid star and admitted he'd allow Casemiro to bite back at him if he wants.

"It is now fair to say the football has not left him," said the former Liverpool star.

"Considering what he's producing this season in the Premier League, and not just Fulham at home, you think what he did last week against Arsenal away and Manchester City at home.

"Casemiro is well within his rights to, if he wants to come back at me and say, 'leave the punditry before the punditry's left you!' He could definitely get one of those back in. Credit to him, he looks a completely different player.

"He looks like a different player physically as well. Even when I said that, you looked at him and he looked like an old man coming to the end of his time as a player.

"And whether he let himself go a little bit, or now he's being ultra professional, physically, he looks completely different."

Some United fans have, however, refused to accept Carragher's U-turn.

"We have left Jamie Carragher in 2025. He's absolutely washed," were the words of one supporter.

A second said: "Let the apologies be louder."

A third wrote: "Went after [Lisandro] Martinez before he played. Dug out Casemiro. Went after [Cristiano] Ronaldo before that. Seems to end up with egg on his face a lot."

And another penned a message saying: "Why not just apologise for being disrespectful and admit you were wrong."

Other fans were happier, however.

A supporter said: "It's actually embarrassing jamie carragher talks more sense than our legends and admits when he was wrong."

Another stated: "At least Jamie is being honest. Kudos to him."

And a third wrote: "This is a sign of a wise person. Admitting when they are wrong. This is class from Carragher."

Casemiro will be hoping to continue his resurgent form when the Red Devils face Tottenham on Saturday (12.30pm).

United drew 2-2 with Spurs earlier this season, with Matthijs de Ligt netting a late equaliser after Richarlison had put the north London side ahead.
