Wes Brown reveling performance as an interim right-back during Gary Neville’s enforced injury absence has not gone unnoticed. Sir Alex Ferguson is full praised of Brown’s recent outstanding display especially his two best performances against Sporting Lisbon and Chelsea. Manchester United sit second in the Barclays Premier League table, despite a shot-shy start to the season, thanks to a solid defence that has conceded just twice in seven games.
Edwin van der Sar was a virtual spectator in Sunday’s win over Chelsea, and Sir Alex has been delighted with his side’s collective defending. “I must say, in home games this season we’ve done quite a lot, particularly Reading and Sunderland hardly had a shot between them, said Ferguson.
“The team ethic has been good and everyone’s working very hard to win the ball back. Sir Alex is hopeful that his side’s 2-0 triumph over Chelsea - United first two-goal haul since April - will prompt a return to the traditionally goal-laden play United can produce.
