United Star Gets 9.18 Rating By WhoScored As PL Team Of The Week Is Revealed

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro’s impressive performance against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night has been given a remarkable 9.18 rating by WhoScored.

The Brazilian was the second highest ranked player in the whole Premier League for the Boxing Day round of games and he was named in WhoScored’s Team of the Week as a result.

In terms of the rest of the eleven, Crystal Palace’s Vicente Guaita was selected in goal, despite the fact that the Eagles lost 3-0 at home to Fulham.

The back four is made up of Newcastle’s Kieran Trippier, Fulham centre-back Tim Ream and Liverpool pair Virgil van Dijk & Andy Robertson.

Joining Casemiro in midfield is Brighton’s Solly March, Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard and Newcastle’s Joelinton, who got on the scoresheet for the Magpies against Leicester.

Up front, it is not a surprise that Manchester City’s Erling Haaland is included, after scoring another brace versus Leeds, while Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic completes the lineup.
