On This Day
Villa lose their first Premier League game in 8 and 2nd in 12 to drop back to 14th place in the table under Brian Little.
Centre forward John Fashanu, 32, makes his 16th and final Villa appearance (14 Starts) after being injured in a tackle with Manchester Unitedโs Ryan Giggs. Fashanu would never play again. In his sole season with Villa between Fashanu made 16 appearances and scored 3 goals adding a fresh, though unexpected dynamic to the team and left with a full record of W5 D6 L5 and a goal involvement rate of one for every 5.33 games he played across his half season with the club.
Dwight Yorke makes his 100th start in a Villa shirt (139 Appearances) to make it W57 D35 L47, 33 Goals, 17 Assists and 2 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one for every 2.78 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Future Villa boss Steve Bruce and future Villa โkeeper Peter Schmeichel line up for Manchester United.

Villa Career Form:
Mid Table
What they Said
"Mark Bosnich was beaten by Cole in the 17th minute but minutes later United had to thank Schmeichel and Pallister for keeping them in front as they blocked shots from Andy Townsend and then lan Taylor."
Mark Bosnich was beaten by Cole in the 17th minute but minutes later United had to thank Schmeichel and Pallister for keeping them in front as they blocked shots from Andy Townsend and then lan Taylor.
Later a cross from Cole caused mayhem in the Villa box, Mark Bosnich managed only to palm it away and lee Sharpe rattled the rebound off the post from only six yards, little wonder the visiting fans sang "Lee Sharpe is a Villa fan.โ
Villa's problems were compounded just before the break when John Fashanu was stretchered off after a collision with Ryan Giggs.
