Manchester United's Premier League 2022-23 season began on a disastrous note, having suffered two successive defeats against Brighton and Brentford. On Monday, the Red Devils registered their first win of the campaign against arch-rivals Liverpool at Old Trafford, sparking renewed belief in fans that under new manager Erik ten Hag, the team is capable of putting forth a display of attacking football.

Casemiro enjoyed his first training session along with former Real Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo and the squad on Thursday at Carrington Ground. The 30-year-old defensive midfielder, who completed a reported 70 million euros transfer from the Los Blancos, is known to thrive on stopping his opponents in their tracks as opposed to igniting his own side's attacks.

"I'm a player that loves to work hard. I am a player that gives everything on the pitch, but not just over 90 minutes, in training too, which for me is the most important thing. For me, you train like you play. I feel that's key to winning games and titles. You have to train as hard as possible to play at your best, be strong and fully committed," Casemiro highlighted.

"Of course, everyone wants to win matches, win in training, learn in training. But I'm one of those players who want to go home and know that I've done my job. That's my philosophy, my mentality and now it's all about giving everything for Manchester United," the Brazilian added.
