Will the signing of Casemiro prove to be a stroke of genius for Manchester United - or yet another expensive mistake?
It's said that Hollywood director Cecil B DeMille could find nobodies and turn them into stars. Manchester United have spent much of their time since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson, some nine years and six full-time managers ago, buying stars and turning them into less than they were.
