Easy 3-0 Win Over Fulham for Manchester United

Dimitar Berbatov has praised the contribution of Paul Scholes after he helped Manchester United to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table.

The Bulgarian striker believes the former England international is among the world's best midfielders after he scored the opening goal in the 3-0 victory over Fulham at Old Trafford last night.

United stretched their lead at the top after goals from Scholes and Berbatov - then in the second half from Rooney, returning after injury. Rooney had only been on the field for a couple of minutes when he hit the back of the net to seal United`s win.
