It couldn’t last. Manchester United have won six successive games whilst producing some awfully mediocre football, some of it downright shambolic. Normally you get what deserve but Louis van Gaal’s team have been getting away with a little more than that of late. Against Aston Villa, reality returned. United were decidedly average in the first half and a little better in the second but they weren’t good enough to break down ten men. Any committed Premier League team with a well-executed game plan is a test for United at present and so it proved. VIDEO Scroll down for Sportsmail's Big Match Stats
