Saha stamps class as United chase second spot

Manchester United 2 Charlton Athletic 0

The new French international ensured Red Devils minds, that might have drifted towards Champions League action going on elsewhere, stayed fully focussed on domestic combat with a scintillating mixture of power, pace and intelligent play.

Saha not only put United in front, he provided the assist for Gary Neville to bash home a second, a goal remarkable only for the fact that the man who scored it has now got two in a week as opposed to just four in 427 appearances previously.
