Good start against Wigan

United beat Wigan 2-0 in a sold performance at Wembley today. United were not always brilliant, but played well enough, and showed signs of even better things to come. They dominated the match, without creating very many chances. Wigan played "knuckle football", and the referee let a number of late, ugly tackles pass without blowing his whistle. This made things more difficult for United, who were loth to pick up more injuries at this stage of the season. For United fans, it was great to see Van Persie find the back of the net right from the outset. In my view, Jones, Cleverley, Zaha and Welbeck also stood out for United, in addition to Van Persie, in what was a good team performance. Swansea, you're next!
