The Scot claims that the Dutchman changed things around after coming on in the second half and that he has done impressively at the helm since arriving in the summer.
Although missing talismanic striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 for the weekend clash against West Bromwich Albion, Manchester United still managed to grind out a 2-0 win that essentially gave them a clean sheet as well.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 International wasn’t able to the find the back of the net and it took an own goal from the Baggies to open the scoring.
Even then the Reds looked out of ideas up-front and Sir Alex was tempted to send out his prolific Holland International to seal the win.
Van Persie, continuing where he had left off against Newcastle United, influenced proceedings immediately, holding up the ball well in order to get his teammates into scoring positions.
And when everything failed to generate the required result, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 captain took matters into his own hand and sumptuously curled the ball into the top corner deep at the very end of the game.
With such a goal scoring streak, it’s no wonder that Fergie was delighted by the player’s performance and claimed that his introduction made all the difference in the game.
"He (van Persie) changed the game for us. When I brought him and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paul-Scholes-c29394 on, they settled the game down for us. It (van Persie's goal) is fantastic. He is a fantastic player. He came on and changed the game for us,” said the Scottish manager while talking
to reporters.
Continuing, he added that his ability to keep his fellow players in the game is a major asset and he showed that in abundance against West Brom.
"Every time the ball came up to him, he got hold of it. He turned on them. They were having to go back to their box all the time. He has done well,” Ferguson was quoted as saying while speaking to the media.
