Manchester., Manchester United’s winless streak in all competitions stretched to five games after drawing 0-0 away to Aston Villa on Sunday in the Premier League, a result that left coach Erik ten Hag mired in uncertainty heading into the break. two weeks for the selections.
Ten Hag arrived at Villa Park highly questioned after losing three of the last six games in the English league. The club’s minority owner, Jim Ratcliffe, avoided giving the Dutch coach full support when asked specifically about it on Friday.
While getting a point at Villa’s home court has its merits, it may not be enough for Ten Hag — especially with the club’s new leaders having two weeks to contemplate their future before the team’s next game. United is 14th out of 20 teams.
With Ratcliffe and the rest of the United officials present, the visitors came close to scoring in the 68th minute with a free kick from Bruno Fernandes hitting the crossbar.
Villa dominated without appeal, four days after their resounding victory against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
Also on Sunday, Chelsea drew 1-1 with Nottingham Forest. Noni Madueke’s goal in the 57th minute declared the distribution of points at Stamford Bridge.
Forest had taken the lead eight minutes earlier through Chris Wood and played with 10 men from the 78th after James Ward-Prowse was sent off for a double booking.
