Sir Alex Ferguson believes that an early goal helped Manchester United record their comfortable victory this afternoon.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson believes that Nani's 17th-minute goal was the key factor in his side's victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier today.

The Red Devils went on to win 4-1 at Old Trafford and Ferguson was left pleased with the attacking display he witnessed.

"You always like to score early," Ferguson told Sky Sports News. "We're not famous for scoring early, we normally like to bed ourselves in.

"But it is always good to get an early goal.

"I was pleased with the attacking part because we scored a lot of goals."

United now trail rivals Manchester City by two points in the Premier League table.
