Adnan Januzaj: Nets Winner Against Villa

Sounds familiar? Manchester United aren’t thrilling or anything close to that, but they keep on winning, beating Aston Villa 1-0 through a slick Adnan Januzaj goal.

According to reports, De Gea was distracted by the transfer talks with Van Gaal saying that he is no longer the same as he was before.

Sherwood said summer recruit Micah Richards, now the club captain, is in his prime and hopes the defender can produce his best form for Villa.

While United’s fans will be heartened by the prospect of De Gea staying, after voting him their Player of the Year last season, the club’s former goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel has been critical of the way the situation has been handled.

The German – who lifted the World Cup last summer – makes the starting line-up for the first time for the Red Devils in a competitive match this evening, though, as Louis van Gaal looks for his midfield to gel.

After selling Christian Benteke and Fabian Delph this offseason, manager Tim Sherwood has plucked Spanish winger Adama Traore from Barcelona.

From Barca to Aston Villa. A Kyle Walker own goal gifted United victory in a game absent of clear goal scoring chances.

“We’ll give him the stage to play but we’ll also give him a lot of work on the training field to improve what he already has”.

While the performance was stuttering, an opening win over Tottenham was vital after the team’s woeful start to the season.

Villa held on for a 1-1 draw at home to United last term, despite having Gabriel Agbonlahor sent off midway through the second half. We were one of the best last season at home and I want to create a fortress at Old Trafford.

Prior to the game, the record between the two teams showed that the Villans were one of the Manchester-based team’s favourite opponents as they had won 32 games against the Birmingham-based outfit in Premier League history.

Bournemouth have signed forward Lee Tomlin from Championship side Middlesbrough on a three-year contract as they continue to spruce up their squad for their maiden season in the Premier League.
