Manchester United have put themselves in a better league position after their victory over Hull City. Hull were 2-0 up after just 13 minutes however United were level by half-time. These two goals were scored by Chris Smalling & Wayne Rooney. Due to a James Chester own goal the Manchester side left with 3 points.
Dwight Yorke said: ” It was important for United to get the result today.”
“We know it’s difficult at the KC stadium and United didn’t play great but they got the result and the players will now be thinking, with Norwich next, they can put a run together.”
“They need to put themselves in a good position to launch an attack and they’ll try to pick the teams above them off one at a time, step by step. When those sides above them slip up United must be ready to pounce. Moyes and the players know this is a crucial part of the season but they’ll be quietly confident they can put a run together to see them challenge at the top of the table.”
“Things are looking promising and, come the end of the season, I wouldn’t be surprised if United retain their Premier League title.”
Wayne Rooney has been important to United as he has scored 8 this season and scored his 150th league goal against Hull City.
Dwight Yorke said (About Wayne Rooney): “Not too many players can drop back into midfield and use the ball very cleverly but at the same time get you the vital goal when it’s needed. That’s something Wayne Rooney has in his locker. He’s a player the United fans love to see doing what he does best and that’s scoring the goals he’s scoring at the moment and producing the performances he’s producing. He’s certainly been the star man for United so far this season.”
