I didn't expect such a boring game from Aston Villa and Manchester United. Apparently, the teams are tired after the Champions League and Europa League. They played very weak, there were few dangerous moments and it is surprising that Manchester United was closer to the goal than Aston Villa, which is not like Emery's team, because before that Aston Villa always scored at least one goal, but here both teams as if initially played for a draw.
It's strange that Ten Hag was so happy after the match and smiling, because this start of the season, where out of 7 games Manchester have only 2 wins is the worst start since 1989.
It was a pretty boring match, the players were tired, which is normal for Europa League matches.
Manchester United is having one of their worst seasons in history.
The points they were able to collect in the EPL and Europa League look pretty bad. Even in the table, it doesn't look like it's going to go well with their game plan and their failures.
I don't know from what point of view you see the match as boring, but I personally see that the match was quite fierce even though the two teams ended the match with a 0-0 draw, the match did start with a slow tempo but we can see how both teams slowly began to increase the intensity of their attacks and forced the two goalkeepers in the match to work hard and be agile in thwarting every opponent's attack, both teams managed to show their dominance in the match so there were many chances that they could create, but indeed Martinez and Onana performance today is very appreciative after their fantastic saves in the match.
For ten hag, today draw result made him even more depressed because of the negative results he achieved in a row both in the league and the europa league, I think ten hag expression at the end of the game did not reflect his true feelings because I saw he was so frustrated throughout the match, currently Manchester United are in 14th place in the Premier League standings with 2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses from the 7 matches they have played, and I think it is a very bad achievement for a big team like Manchester United from a coach who considers himself the second best coach in the Premier League so far
.
There were dangerous moments in this game and as I wrote earlier Manchester was closer to scoring a goal, but Martinez saved the team several times after Rashford's shots. Maybe I'm wrong to call this game boring, but that game was played at very low speed, which is not typical for the EPL, because here even outsiders fight until the last minute.
Apparently fatigue was stronger than the desire to score, but I guess Emery is satisfied with the result, then Ten Hag is already on the edge of the abyss and the delay in his resignation is weakening Manchester United more and more.
By the way, yesterday former Manchester United goalkeeper David De Hea saved Fiorentina when he was able to deflect two penalties, and Manchester decided to give up such a player because of Ten Hag's dissatisfaction with De Hea's footwork. Of course now Onana is playing much better, but still it's not clear why De Hea was kicked out and I think Ten Hag had conflicts not only with De Hea.
That's why Manchester City players don't really want to play under Ten Hag.
