Aston Villas goals were quite perfect frankly speaking and Baily doesn't score that goal from that angle 100% of the time. Then the freekick and only that one lucky goal for Manchester United. That is what I think shouldn't happen. Manchester didn't fight back as a great team would do. They didn't get their organisation right and weren't sufficiently dangerous in Aston Villas box despite having amazing players in their offensive lines. Aston Villa was greatly prepared and they delivered a real fight. That's why in the end the three points were well deserved.
Manchester United have stability issues, especially when it comes to away games. At some point, when it seems that ten Hag was able to improve the game of the teams, they manage to get defeated by not the strongest team. But Emery's presence may have played a role here, now it will be interesting to see the results of Aston Villa, since Emery is a very good coach and can significantly improve the team.
Emery's presence played a major role in their brilliant performance at home against Manchester United. Erik Ten Hag has improved Uniteds performance too you have to give him the credit for what they have achieved so far. I believe this is a process and gradually with the right strategies and steps they will improve and get better. Emery is a very good coach and when I read the news he was overseeing the game against United I knew it was problem for United in that game and it all played out as I predicted in the end.
