Three players received special recognition from Manchester United star Paul Scholes after the team’s 2-1 Premier League victory over Aston Villa on Sunday night.

Yesterday, the Red Devils won their third straight league game on the road against Unai Emery’s team thanks to a strong showing.

At halftime, the team deservedly led 1-0. Harry Maguire provided a fantastic headed assist, and Rasmus Hojlund scored.

Shortly after the hour, Douglas Luiz gave Villa a chance to go back in the game, but another late goal from Scott McTominay gave United the victory.

McTominay leaped to his highest point to catch a spectacular cross from Diogo Dalot. After the game, Scholes expressed his admiration for three players.

The Red Devils veteran noted that Maguire was “very good” in both boxes and that Casemiro’s comeback is a “big plus” for the team.

Additionally, the former United star praised McTominay. Off the bench, Scholes claimed he has been a genuine threat and has been making a “huge difference.”

In the closing moments of Bayer Leverkusen’s victory over Bayern Munich, Jeremie Frimpong scored an empty goal.

“That could be a really big win when it comes to the end of the season,” he said to Premier League productions. United appears to be in a respectable situation.

“The addition of Casemiro is a huge plus. Maguire played well today in both boxes, and McTominay has been a real threat when he’s on.” He is significantly improving the team.

With the victory over Villa, United has closed the gap on fourth-place Tottenham Hotspur to only six points. They are currently in with a real possibility of making it into the Champions League.

The team trails fifth-place Aston Villa by five points as well. In the event that the remaining English clubs perform well in the European competitions, the position might possibly be sufficient to earn a Champions League spot.

As a result, the league has a lot on the line. Erik ten Hag, the manager, will want the winning run to continue. This Sunday at Kenilworth Road, they ought to be the favourites to defeat Luton Town.
