La Liga 2017/18: Deportivo 0-3 Real Madrid, 5 Talking Points

#2 Casemiro is more than just a destroyer

Deportivo La Coruna v Real Madrid - La Liga

Those familiar with my work know that I'm a big fan of the Brazilian defensive midfielder...

However, even putting personal biases aside, it's is clearly visible to all who care to look that Casemiro is adding to his game, although it is a bit of a misnomer, since the Brazilian has always had a flair for the attacking side of his game while in his younger days at Sao Paulo and the Brazilian youth teams.

Zinedine Zidane has reined the Brazilian in for the benefit of his Real Madrid teammates in the past couple of seasons, but what's been far more noticeable in the start to this campaign is that the Brazilian midfielder has been given the license to roam, which is why he was available in the 6-yard-box to tap in Marcelo's cross.

Expect more goals from him, Casemiro isn't done for the season.
