'We played like champions' says Ferguson

Sir Alex Ferguson says his side played like champions on Saturday

Sir Alex Ferguson has said his side gave a championship-winning performance in front of those with Manchester United tickets at West Ham on Saturday (April 2nd).

The Man Utd manager was pleased with his team's performance after they recovered from going two goals down to win 4-2 at Upton Park.

It could prove decisive in this year's title race, with rivals Arsenal and Chelsea both dropping points - drawing against Blackburn and Stoke respectively.

Ferguson said: "We played like champions. It was a championship performance as far as I'm concerned. I said to them at half time, 'goal difference doesn't matter now. You're getting something from this game'.

"That's why I put Ryan back to left-back to have a go and just attack. It paid dividends and I'm pleased with that."

Manchester United's next game comes at home to Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday, April 9th, with kick-off at 3pm.
