Manchester United looked like champions once again as they tore apart a forlorn West Bromwich side at the Hawthornes. 

United took the lead through Dimitar Berbatov’s angled drive in the 22nd minute before goals from Carlos Tevez and Nemanja Vidic made it 3-0.  Cristiano Ronaldo then put a shine on the score by netting twice, the second from an audacious no-look pull back by Ryan Giggs.

Giggs, who turned 35 in November put in his second man of the match performance in four days as he partnered Michael Carrick in the heart of the United midfield.

Before kick-off United were handed a boost by the inclusion of Rio ferdinand and Ji-Sung Park in the starting lineup.  Ferdinand and Park were expected to miss at least another week but were declared fit to play before the match.

United were in scintilating form and looked like true world champions as they completely out classed West Brom.  The win gave United a three point cushion atop the Premier league while Edwin Van Der Sar kept his premiership record eleventh clean sheet.  The United stopper has not conceded a goal for 1,032 minutes since Samir Nasri scored the winner for Arsenal in the 2-1 defeat in November.
