The Scot has reserved some special words for the attacking duo, claiming that with them firing on all cylinders, the club had a good chance of lifting silverware in May.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 both impressed yesterday, as Manchester United got the better of Fulham in an entertaining 3-2 win.
With Fulham coming into the game with confidence, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 and allowing Van Persie to make his first start and home debut for the side.
Although the Cottagers got off to a flyer, the Dutchman soon become an Old Trafford hero, netting a brilliant volley to open his account for the Red Devils. Kagawa, who was almost unplayable at times, then scored the 2nd after tapping in from
close range.
Rafael Da Silva’s header seemed to have secured victory, but a late c**k-up between http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-de-Gea-c10463 allowed the visitors to pile pressure on their hosts.
However, it proved to be of little concern, as the Manchester outfit picked up their first win of the new season. While the three points were as important as ever, Rooney picked up a nasty injury in stoppage time and looks set to spend four weeks recuperating.
Normally Ferguson would be worried with his talisman out for such a long time, but with several players showing plenty of promise, the Glaswegian native is relishing the chance to see others get an extended first team run.
“It was fine. It is early doors and there will be a better understanding as time goes on. We normally do that, whether it is Wayne who plays in that role, or http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 can play there. We have options that way.”
“The first-half performance was fantastic,' said Ferguson. 'It could have been five, six, anything. But we made a terrible mistake for the second goal and it becomes a match. Before that it had never been a match,” claimed the experienced tactician.
United now face a tricky away trip to Southampton, where the likes of Kagawa and Van Persie are likely to be given starts as the team looks to continue their winning ways.
