That's just ever so slightly different pants isn't it? Fergie had some movement after that

to bring in some more players.
He also had a certain player called Wayne Rooney as well as an all round better squad.

I doubt its the Milner thing alone, but in the case of Villa he is one of very few stand out talents in the squad.
Manure had a much better all round squad to cope with losing Ronaldo, Villa do not.
