Aston Villa 0-3 United: 5 Things We Learnt As United Locked Down Villa Park.

Manchester United paid a courtesy visit to Villa Park and locked it down with three goals from Fernandes, Greenwood and Pogba.


Here are five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the stroll in the park:

1. ANOTHER 'BAZUKA' GOAL
United's 'Shakiti-bobo', Mason 'Bazuka' Greenwood was on target again with another 'bazuka' shot into the back of Pepe Reina's goal.


It was his second on target as his first was luckily parried off. He now has 9 premier league goals and 16 in total this season. A wonder kid indeed.

2. THE NEW MARTIAL
The 'embarraser-in-chief' of right backs and goalkeepers has been a new man for United in recent weeks. His attitude and hunger for  goals has been fantastic. In Naija parlance we say " e don de hustle ball".

His anger when he was substituted was interesting to see. Martial is no longer content with just a good game without scoring. That's the spirit of a true No9!!

3. PAUL 'IKENNA' POGBA
The 'swagger-licious' French midfielder continued his resurgence since return from injury. He has also been a different player with better discipline,  purposeful play and less show off.


His efforts were finally rewarded with a brilliant goal, his first of the season, which coincidentally was United's 100th goal this season!

4. LUKE 'AJEBOTA' SHAW.
The left back has been scintillating for United in recent weeks. After nearly losing his place to Brandon Williams before lockdown, the former Southampton man has come back to possess his possession!

His link up play and forward runs have been simply amazing. Defensively, he has also been tidy. He is gradually becoming a 'kpako' and not an 'ajebota' in his play. Kudos to him.

5. RECORD BREAKER!!
With Olè on the wheel, Manchester United created a new English Premier league record by becoming the first team in EPL history to win four consecutive matches with three or more goals.



Recall we flogged Sheffield 3-0, beat Brighton 3-0, thrashed Bournemouth 5-2 and lashed Aston Villa 3-0 today!

IN THE END, it was a great night for United especially after creating the new record.
Congratulations to David 'Osinachi' De Gea who made his 399th appearance for United today, thus beating Peter Schmeichel's record for United. Clean sheet well deserved to celebrate the night.
