Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher has no doubts the Premier League has improved in standard this season.
Critics have sneered that the champions have come out on top in a far-from-vintage campaign but the Scotland international appreciates the quality running all the way through the division.
"People look at our away form but I think the league has improved," he told MUTV.
"Most teams didn't have a great away record this year and that speaks volumes for the improvement of the league. Our home form has been fantastic. I think the criticism is a bit unfair when you consider we're champions and have a Champions League final to look forward to."
