'Casemiro wipes him away': Rio Ferdinand brushes away Partey-Casemiro comparisons

Speaking on his official YouTube podcast, Rio Ferdinand said: "I think of the importance of Casemiro and Thomas Partey to their teams.

"Yes, you could argue both sides quite equally. But then, when you through the stats, Casemiro wipes Partey away.

"I don't think Partey is good enough defensively to do what Casemiro is doing. But on the ball, he's doing more."

Partey's Arsenal may be sitting top of the Premier League but, partly thanks to Casemiro, Manchester United are looking to put pressure on the Gunners.

The Brazilian midfielder, who moved to Old Trafford last summer for £70 million from Real Madrid, has quickly established as a key player under Erik ten Hag.
