Manuel Ugarte struggled to keep up with the pace of the Premier League in his first couple of games but it seems as thought the Uruguayan has now found his feet. Partnered with fellow South American Casemiro, Ugarte has put in several impressive displays.
Casemiro spoke to reporters about his connection on the pitch with Ugarte following our recent 3-0 win over Leicester.
I have a good connection with him. When one goes forward, the other covers, and vice versa. That is how it has to be – one compliments the other. I think the other games have been like this.
I have a good a connection with him. He is a great person. He’s a good kind of person. Then, little by little, he is also showing that he is a national-team player from Uruguay, a team that has good players.
He has total respect, not only mine, but from all the players. And, well, it is good for us to have good players, so we have a much better squad.
