Ronaldo to play the villain again?
Cristiano Ronaldo has thumbed his nose at those who suggested the 36-year-old may struggle to instantly slip back into the Premier League routine, putting two past Newcastle on his second debut for the club and adding another in Europe in the Champions League loss to Young Boys. The Portuguese is expected to lead the line again against Villa in the absence of Marcus Rashford, with support from Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba and Mason Greenwood and he knows where the onion bag is when facing the claret-and-blue half of Birmingham: eight career goals against Villa gives the visitors the unwanted tag of Ronaldo’s favourite Premier League victims.
United regained a talisman during the summer while Villa lost their, Jack Grealish moving to the other side of Manchester for a British record fee. However, Dean Smith reinvested the windfall wisely in the form of proven top-flight scorer Danny Ings, Norwich playmaker Emiliano Buendía and former Leverkusen winger Leon Bailey, who was on target in a 3-0 victory over Everton. However, the Jamaica international is out until November so it will fall to Ollie Watkins to partner Ings as Villa seek a first win at Old Trafford since 2009.
