Fergie enjoys United victory
26 Aug 2008 - 08:36:30
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was pleased with his side's display in their hard-fought 1-0 victory at Portsmouth on Monday evening.
A scrappy Darren Fletcher goal in the first half decided the game at Fratton Park, with Ferguson content that his side had done their job well against the FA Cup holders.
He told MUTV: "We wanted to play a system in which the players we had would be comfortable in their positions and I think we used our players the right way.
"Anderson wanted to play and I think he showed it was a very good decision, he was fantastic.
"Paul Scholes looked to control the game and I think he did that. We also had the energy and the qualities that both John O'Shea and Darren Fletcher bring to the team.
"I think we played some excellent football with really good periods of passing and moving and I hope we can keep that going."
