Manchester United matchwinner Bruno Fernandes was delighted with victory over Aston Villa.
The result sees United draw level with Liverpool on points, the Reds stay top on goal difference.
Fernandes said, “We knew they [Aston Villa] play really well. They have qualities and are doing well in the league. We did well and created more chances than before but scored less goals. The most important thing is three points though.
“I feel like I have to make the penalty go on goal but it’s important to score and it doesn’t matter how. You need to win the games no matter how. I am confident when I take the penalty otherwise I would pass for somebody else.”
On Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saying United have improved, Fernandes continued: “I agree with that because against Leicester we conceded a goal at the end. The only mistake we made today was we had more chances to score again and maybe we have to close the game more quickly. We don’t score the third one and they press us until the end.”
“It’s far away the end of the Premier League so we have to keep going, train hard and try to keep winning. You have to keep this mentality of winning and winning.”
He added: “When you dream to play in the Premier League you think of this – the Boxing day and the first day of new year. Everyone wants to be with family but this year was a different one and hopefully next year can be a better one.”
