I was expecting the worse after all these bottled opportunities.Nice to take care of business. I was never too stressed out.

An early goal was key. We're not an easy team to beat if you have to chase us.I was expecting the worse after all these bottled opportunities.
A completely free header back across the goal from the back post and then a completely free flick in of the header. The entire time United had 6 or so players just standing inside their own 6 yard box not moving at all.That was Chelsea-like corner defending.
He might not have been at "fault" but he was still total trash. He basically took himself out of the play by just standing still. You either have to high point the ball to prevent a touch, or you have to just hope your defense prevents a touch and you move to prevent the ball going in on the initial cross.A couple of notes:
Luton has so far this season three more goals than the great Man United
This can easily become a blowout, Evans himself stopped about 2 or 3 dangerous plays.
Rashford seems frustrated af
I'm the first to shit on Onana but he wasn't at fault on that first goal, that was a venomous cross by McGinn, who used to be a Scottish Gattuso but is becoming a Scottish Pirlo.
You know who let in goals from those type of crosses too? De Gea. I saw a compilation video of his errors from his last few seasons and there were a couple of those there.He might not have been at "fault" but he was still total trash.

"He's just as bad at defending crosses as De Gea was" isn't exactly a ringing endorsement.You know who let in goals from those type of crosses too? De Gea. I saw a compilation video of his errors from his last few seasons and there were a couple of those there.
I'm saying it's become systematic."He's just as bad at defending crosses as De Gea was" isn't exactly a ringing endorsement.
They are by far the best team in the league at the offside trap. It helps a lot when your squad has mostly stayed healthy and you can play the same players every week.United has been trash at staying onside tonight, but also I swear Villa must drill the offside trap for 3 hours every day. They're so good at keeping a line, even when play gets recycled and they have to quickly adjust.
Emery will meticulously do training sessions and video sessions with the squad, so this is where they get the prep for it. We are by far the best team in the league at doing it. there's another picture I will have to find that shows it as well.United has been trash at staying onside tonight, but also I swear Villa must drill the offside trap for 3 hours every day.
