United defender delighted with smash-and-grab job at Anfield
Rio Ferdinand has spoken of a sky-high confidence in Manchester United's camp ahead of a busy festive period.
Carlos Tevez's close-range effort was enough to earn United a precious three-point haul from their trip to Liverpool at the weekend.
Ferdinand admits a win over arch-rivals Liverpool always tastes sweet and Sunday's victory proved to be no exception.
United are now just a solitary point behind leaders Arsenal and a buoyant Ferdinand is ready to crank up the pressure on Arsene Wenger's side.
Confidence high
"Nothing tastes much better than going to Anfield and winning as a Manchester United player," Ferdinand told
The Sun.
"It was huge for our confidence and a fantastic feeling.
"They thought they had a good chance of beating us. They've been playing well and have the players to beat us.
"But we were resolute all over the park. Our wide men, forwards and midfielders all defended together.
"That's a sign of a team that's strong and well bonded. That is exactly what we are.
"The morale in the squad is unbelievable."
