Sir Alex Ferguson: 'Darren Fletcher back to his best'

Ferguson: 'Fletcher back to his best'

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has heaped praise on returning midfielder Darren Fletcher.

The Scot made his first Premier League appearance since November 19, 2011 today and scored the second as United completed a comeback win at Old Trafford against the Premier League's bottom side Queens Park Rangers.

Ferguson was also pleased with the performance of second-half substitute Anderson.

"We only played for 10 minutes and those 10 minutes were brilliant," said the Glaswegian. "I thought Anderson changed the game for us."

When asked about Fletcher's performance, Ferguson added "The boy has had a long journey back [from illness] and he has showed he is back to his best."

Victory for United sees them move above Manchester rivals City, who go to Chelsea tomorrow, atop the Premier League.
