Another Rooney double sees United go top

Wayne Rooney's double and a late strike from Dimitar Berbatov sent Manchester United back to the top of the Premier League with a 3-0 win over Fulham yesterday.

Sir Alex Ferguson's side had surrendered first place to Chelsea for 24 hours but the champions are now two points ahead of the Blues, and third placed Arsenal. Rooney made the breakthrough in the first minute of second half to set United on their way.
