"The unity and spirit you get when players stay together is now coming through," said the Scot.<br />

United won 2-0 thanks to goals from Paul Scholes and a Wayne Rooney penalty yesterday, but admitted that an early sending off for Shaun Derry may have seen his United side take the foot off the pedal.<br />
