John McGinn was the least surprised man at Villa Park to see Scott McTominay score the winner... the Man United ace has gone from being shopped around in the summer to becoming Erik ten Hag's super sub

There were at least two people in the 42,000 crowd inside Villa Park on Sunday that would not have been surprised to see Scott McTominay pop up with the winning goal.

John McGinn, his Scotland team-mate, has known for months now just what a goalscoring threat the Manchester United man is. He's not United's top scorer in the Premier League by accident.

'He is so athletic and he gets in the box and hits the ball harder than anyone I have ever played with,' Villa captain McGinn said of McTominay previously.
