Ferguson:
"We're trying to get an antidote. [referring to 1-0 win]
"But overall I'm pleased with the performance and I think it was a fair result. We controlled most of the match but we got a break in the last 15 minutes. They were good chances so I was relieved they were all missed. I think it would have been unfair if they had equalised but football can be unfair.
"Maybe the first half was a bit more tactical and we played with far too much caution. In the second half I think we improved and the goal was a fabulous goal.
"It was great movement and good passing which gave us the penetration we were looking for and created the opening for Wayne's excellent goal.
"We controlled most of the match. We tired a little bit towards the end when they started to take risks going for an equaliser but in the main I think we deserved the result.
"Ten points will get us through.
"We don't want to have to go to Rome looking for a result in our last game and hopefully we can avoid that."

"It was only his [Rooney's] fourth or fifth match and he is still trying to get his rhythm and real match fitness.
"It will do him good. Goals always do players good, particularly when goals are expected of them, so I'm pleased with that."
Roma manager Luciano Spalletti:
: "I think the team showed what happened in April was a blip. Tonight's performance showed there was a huge difference between what happened then and what happened now.
"When a team puts in a display like that it should not be a beaten side. If anyone deserved to score more goals it was us, rather than Manchester United."
