Arsenal win a 'big result for us' - Man Utd's Moyes

David Moyes was in a very positive frame of mind after Manchester United produced their biggest win since he arrived at the club.

The Red Devils edged league leaders Arsenal 1-0 at Old Trafford thanks to a 27th-minute header from ex-Gunners ace Robin van Persie and after the match, Moyes was quick to describe it as a very big result for the reigning champions.

"We have not had many good ones, but this was a big result for us today - Arsenal have been in terrific form this season and we had to play well to get the result," Moyes told Sky Sports.

"I thought we started the game well, we were very good in the opening 20-30 minutes in the game.

"I thought our whole determination, the effort, commitment, good play, helped us in the second-half when we were under more pressure.

"It's another step in the right direction for us.

"We have got a lot of big steps to take here and it is going to take a while for me to get it all the way I'd like it to be.

"I am not singing and dancing because we won the game, but I am thrilled because the boys put in a great performance."
