Manchester United's two-goal derby hero Darren Fletcher says the players are determined to silence their critics after being written off at the start of the season.
"Everyone has been writing us off but you have to use that in the right way and prove people wrong," said Fletcher.
"It was a hard week in football terms and you cannot ask for much more than the results we have got. We know how much quality there is in the dressing room. You look around and you are happy to have those players in your team."
However, there was a warning from Fletcher, who felt United's first-half performance left a little to be desired, especially after Gareth Barry's shock equaliser.
"After that we seemed to get a bit disheartened, which you cannot do in any game," he said.
"We rallied round at half-time and came out all guns blazing. That should be the standard we play at every week.
"If we want to win games we cannot afford to go through the motions as we did for large parts of the first half."
