Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson was delighted with victory over Tottenham.
Ferguson was full of praise for his team's display after half time.
"The second-half performance was absolutely fantastic," he said. "It was a fast game in the first half, it was end-to-end. Tottenham had a lot of possession, but in the second half we just took off."
The United boss was also pleased with his young players, most notably Danny Welbeck.
"The first half he (Welbeck) didn't play as a centre-forward. He was too much in midfield," he said.
"We needed more presence up front, a target up front and in the second half he was better that way. He's always had great ability Danny.
"It was always a situation that we've had to wait for him. He's still only 20 - he's got a great future."
