Manchester United defender Phil Jones was delighted with victory at Sunderland.
United fought back from going a goal down to win 2-1.
Jones told MUTV: "Everyone dug in, it was a great performance and a massive three points.
"We were put on the back foot right from the first minute, and perhaps we didn't get out of the traps as well as we should have done.
"They were fired up, and perhaps we didn't expect it quite as much as we should have in the first 10 minutes. But once we got to grips with the game, I thought we played some terrific stuff.
"That was the sign of champions out there. When your backs are against the wall and everyone's raising questions, a performance like that puts the record straight."
