Michael Carrick : “It feels good. It was a good performance in the main. We did a lot of things we were really happy with in the game and to finish it the way we did, we knew it was a big game coming into it and getting back to winning ways, the boys responded so well.

“I was quite happy with it at half-time, it was just a tight game. Sometimes you have to be a bit measured. The game opened up for us in the second half and we had the players to make the difference.”

Speaking about the contribution of captain Fernandes, he added: “He’s had so many big moments, to score or make a pass, and he’s always there. He always puts himself forward, whether it’s training or games.

“The pass to Matheus was fantastic.”
