United Review: Man United lose at Villa Park

 Aston Villa 3 - 1 Manchester United

A stunning start to Unai Emery's reign at Aston Villa after an awful performance by Manchester United.

Quick summary of a nightmare afternoon for Manchester United

Aston Villa were excellent, and they thoroughly deserve their win. The 3-1 defeat was not a fluke scoreline. United's goal was a fluke but other than that, Villa were excellent and could probably have scored more goals.

This was how United lined up at Villa Park. They were shocked as Villa raced into a 2-0 lead. Luke Shaw's deflected effort gave them hope but Villa were 3-1 up by 49th minute. It was then a very straightforward afternoon for the Villains.

The best chance of the second half came to Dalot. Casemiro found the Portugal right-back, but he decided to pass the ball across the box instead of going for goal, and the chance was gone as it fizzed past every United player and was cleared away.

What went wrong?

United were constantly sloppy in possession, Thhis turned into frustration when Tyrone Mings and Ronaldo had a coming together in the penalty area. Both men received a yellow card for the tussle. It is clear that despite United's improvements this season, the Red Devils still have a awful long way to.

The best social media responses

See the image below to see a range of different opinions from Manchester United fans. Most admit that performances haven't been great recently even if the results have been mostly ok.

One Twitter user said: "Erik Ten Hag is by far the right manager for Manchester United but he will make mistakes. Today he made a couple across the board but will hopefully learn from these shortly. It highlights that we need signings in January."

Controversial Reds: Love or Hate Tevez?

What do you think of Carlos Tevez? Carlos Tevez is one of the most controversial players to have played for United and City. Let's have a look at his time at Old Trafford then his spell at The Etihad. Move to England On 23 August 2006, it was reported that Tevez was refusing to play for Corinthians. Tevez confirmed on his website on 31 August that both he and Javier Mascherano were signing for West Ham United on permanent deals for undisclosed fees.  Media reports speculated that other Premier League clubs turned down the opportunity of signing Tevez and Mascherano because of stipulations put in place by third parties MSI and Global Soccer Agencies.  Tevez made his West Ham debut after coming on as a second-half substitute in the 1–1 home draw with Aston Villa on 10 September 2006.   However, after this match, West Ham went on a nine-game winless streak (one draw and eight defeats), which included seven consecutive matches without scoring.

United Review: Rashford on form as United progress

Manchester United 2 - 0 Burnley Marcus Rashford readjusted to club matters after his World Cup campaign with England as he scored a fine solo goal in Manchester United's EFL Cup win over Burnley at Old Trafford. Rashford was one of five United players on duty in Qatar to make manager Erik ten Hag's starting line-up. Christian Eriksen put the hosts ahead just before the half hour with a fine first-time finish after Aaron Wan-Bissaka has provided his first goal assist since May 2021, Rashford took centre stage 12 minutes into the second period. Given too much space as Burnley's defence backed off, Rashford started running 10 yards inside his own half and didn't stop until he had sprinted into the box, darted between Jack Cork and Jordan Beyer and driven his ninth goal of the season into the bottom corner.It was enough to earn United only their second home win inside 90 minutes in this competition in five years. United have too much for Burnley in the end Despite Burnl...
