Robin van Persie: I am surrounded by champions at Manchester United

Manchester United striker Robin van Persie has described his side as "a special team" and says that he is surrounded by players who know "how to win".

Van Persie was also pleased with United's performance against Wigan and is hopeful of carrying on winning. "It was a very good performance, we scored the goals at the right time," said the Dutchman. "We've played Wigan twice this year and won 4-0 both times, so that's good for goal difference. "Everybody's helping each other and everybody wants to share the goals. Look at the last goal - Danny [Welbeck] wanted to give the ball to me so I could score. "Everybody's like that. I'm like that, Chicha [Javier Hernandez] is like that. Everybody wants to share the goals and that, in my opinion, is the way to score heaps of goals. "Hopefully we can keep it going. We've had a couple of games where we've had high scores but we want to score even more goals because that could be vital come the end of the season." Van Persie reflected on his two goals against Wigan at the DW Stadium, saying: "[Javier and I] scored two goals each and he gave a really good pass for my first goal. "It was a good goal because every single touch was the right touch, in my opinion. "The first one was a little behind me and I had to drag it onto my left foot. That was a good touch. "Then I waited for the guy to slide in, had a good touch inside and then a quick finish. Three touches but all good touches."
