Robin van Persie delighted with life at Manchester United

Manchester United striker Robin van Persie is delighted with how life at the club has gone for him since his move from Arsenal last summer.

The 29-year-old has scored 22 goals this season in just 30 appearances for the Red Devils in all competitions.

Van Persie told reporters: "It's gone as well as I've expected it to go. I go into work every day whistling — as from the first day they've made me feel welcome.

"The boys made me feel right at home. Training is really good and I see things I've not seen in a long time.

"It is a very pleasant environment to work in. Every day I work on new things. I have become alert to small details that make me better."

Sir Alex Ferguson's side hold a nine-point lead at the top of the Premier League table over rivals Manchester City with 13 games left to play this season.
