Fergie hails ‘fantastic’ RVP

Roberto Mancini has admitted that Robin van Persie has been the difference in the title race to this point and the Dutchman helped himself to two more goals, taking his tally to 16 league goals for the season as United retained their seven-point advantage at the top of the table with the most routine of victories.
Van Persie now has 64 goals in his last 76 Premier League appearances and after finishing top scorer in 2011 and 2012, few, Mancini included, would bet against him repeating that.
