Robin van Persie scored the 1,500th goal under Sir Alex Ferguson’s career at Old Trafford to give his side an important win over struggling Sunderland.
Tom Cleverley and Wayne Rooney added to his strike to give United a commanding lead over the visitors, before former Red Devil Fraizer Campbell again exposed the hosts defensive frailties as he was allowed to head home unmarked from close range.
There was much written prior to the game about Nemanja Vidic – the Serbian defender, having recovered from a knee injury, was left on the bench in favour of Chris Smalling, who partnered Rio Ferdinand at the heart of defence.

In short, Neve Campbell was the Kristen Stewart of the 1990s, albeit with far less lucrative paydays and a chronic head tilt instead of a lip-biting affectation. Now, after fifteen years in Hollywood, Campbell doesn't have a hell of a lot to show for her time in the so-called spotlight. Interestingly, she herself has declared that "I never wanted to be an actor," and I can't help but think that this is one hell of an obvious statement in retrospect, for Campbell has...
