“The people will now see a different side of us. Everything that we worked on in the last couple of weeks is coming out now - lots of quick passing, runs in behind, a lot of action and a lot of chances. As long as we create chances, we know we will score. We defended well, we tried to press the ball, the fans want to see that and we tried to deliver."
FT
"Everything pleased me. The first 10 minutes were the mirror of the game. So fast, so creative, even I can say so beautiful, but we lost three chances in the first 10 minutes and I think that was the mirror of the game. We managed to score two goals which was enough to win, but it shouldn’t be two, it should be two, three, four, five, six and we should have scored before we scored the goals and we should have scored the penalty that would kill the game and also the best chances after the penalty. Even with 10 men the team was really strong in every aspect of the game."

"I keep saying for me the support is not important. It's nice, of course it’s nice, but it’s not important for me because they support the team. I think the team also brought the fans into the game with the way they played from the beginning with the fantastic football and with a great spirit. "We knew that this was a must-win game for us and the fans played with us, but I think they started playing with us since the end of the game against Tottenham. That was the crucial moment when the best feeling was given to the team, when the team most needed it. This week was very good and we didn’t feel in any moment that we were coming from a defeat. The spirit was high exactly because of that reaction at Old Trafford."
FT
"I think it was a very, very good performance with a result which was short. They played very well as a team, and there were very good individual performances and we should score many more goals. The result shouldn't have been open until the last minute. There were lots of good performances but Fellaini was fundamental, together with Smalling and Lindelof. Luke Shaw had a good performance and there were many others, too." *Speaking to BBC Sport
FT
"That was really big. In the last game we started well but didn't take our chances. This time we did. We knew we had to grind out the result in the second half. We have character and we need to be more like that. Now we go into the international break and can switch off a bit. The manager has time to analyse our performances for the rest of the games in September." *Speaking to BBC Sport

"I've got to say, that was the best performance I have seen from United in quite some time. They were magnificent. We were all disappointed after Tottenham. They were terrific today, it was a great performance and it certainly could have been more than 2-0."

Ander Herrera told us on Friday that United needed to keep producing the kind of display shown in the first half against Tottenham, but with goals, and that's exactly what the Reds did in the first period at Turf Moor. Great movement, quick passing and positive play overall was the story of our performance in the opening 45 and it was brilliant to see us convert that into two strong finishes from Romelu Lukaku. As you'd expect Burnley pressed more after the break, but credit to the United defence who stood firm to earn a clean sheet and a very deserved three points.
