But after the full-time whistle both Fernandes and Casemiro were caught by cameras having an animated chat.
As the Portuguese midfielder seemed to be explaining something to his Brazilian team-mate, Casemiro appeared angered by his suggestion.
Harry Maguire appeared to step in to calm the situation down.
And on Twitter, fans were just as bewildered.
One fan wrote: “Naah Bruno is a headache.”
Another shared: “Biggest moaner in history that Fernandes, unbelievable.”
A third decided: “A normal interaction between teammates.”
Fernandes has got previous when the action is over of confronting his team-mates.
After a 2-0 defeat at Newcastle, he ordered United’s stars to applaud the away fans following the poor performance.
But that wasn’t needed today.
Bruno Fernandes’ 39th-minute goal ensured victory over a Villa side who came to Old Trafford with an outside chance of getting into the top four themselves after an incredible run under Unai Emery.
However, United were made to sweat at the end.
Defender Victor Lindelof was once again in top form, as he had been at Wembley the previous weekend in the FA Cup semi-final win against Brighton.
It was his flick header that denied an Ashley Young cross reaching in-form goalscorer Ollie Watkins.

He was there again to slide in and deflect Jacob Ramsey’s shot over the bar.
Then he headed a goalbound shot from Douglas Luiz off the line although an offside in the build-up would have ruled a goal out anyway.
United now have daylight between themselves and fifth spot, and look destined to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
