Got away with one, to put it mildly. Clearly carried ball over the line
1963:
Nice and steady on the right, solid defensively but didn’t attack a lot
1986:
A threat at set-pieces in attack, caused big problems. Solid game
2006:
Looks a giant in the defence and completely bossed the forwards
2007:
Solid at left-back but Baldock pushed him back as it went on
Good delivery from set-pieces and effective at picking out his man
Booked
Shielded the defence to good effect. Picked out his passes well
2009:
2016:
Welcome return to Villa’s midfield, but is clearly lacking sharpness
Worked hard, but just could not find space to make things happen
2018:
Surprise starter, but his power and strength really bullied the Blades
Returned with a mini-pony tail and caught the eye with his touches
Trezeguet (El Ghazi 69) 6; Samatta (Davis 69) 6; Nakamba (Mcginn 76) 6; El Mohamady (Konsa 76) 6
No wonder United want to keep him – superb save to deny Mcginn
Certainly didn’t have it all his own way, with Davis causing problems
Tough game for United’s defence as Villa had power and movement
Solid in defence, pushed further forward as the game wore on
Bit of an unsung hero, United’s Mr Reliable in defence and attack
United’s big hope in midfield, neat and tidy, but not incisive enough
Booked
Got yellow card for blocking a quickly taken free-kick. Daft
Denied what looked a clear goal when his cross went over the line
Very rare for Blades’ defence to have such a tough examination
Struggled to make inroads against man-mountain Mings. Quiet
Worked hard, but was well marshalled by Villa’s defence
Freeman (Berge 69) 6; Mcgoldrick (Sharp 69) 6; Mousset (Mcburnie 80)
