David Moyes: 'Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney key to Manchester United success'

David Moyes says that Manchester United need Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney to hit top form if they are to be successful this season.

David Moyes believes that the partnership of Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney is vital to Manchester United's success this season.

Both strikers scored during the Premier League champions' 3-1 win against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday, which marked the fourth time under Moyes that the pair have netted in the same game.

Ahead of their Champions League clash at Real Sociedad on Tuesday, Moyes underlined the importance of the duo to the club.

"I thought there were real signs of great combination between them and they made the goals for each other," Moyes told reporters. "There was good link-up play and I just started to see really good signs from the two of them.

"It was great they both got on the scoresheet because that is what forwards do and I have always said you need these boys to get a hat-load of goals if you are to be successful. They are both incredibly talented and understand each other and the talents they both bring with them."

United face Sociedad in Group A at 7.45pm tonight.
