Sir Alex Ferguson hailed the "gutsy" nature of his side after they moved to within a point of the league title.
United saw off Wigan Athletic 2-1 on Wednesday night and will again be crowned champions if they avoid defeat against Arsenal at Old Trafford on Saturday - but only after coming from behind at the JJB Stadium.
Carlos Tevez equalised Hugo Rodallega's first-half goal with an impudent back-heel before Michael Carrick scored an 86th-minute winner.
really gutsy
Ferguson paid tribute to Wigan, as well as his own men, after the final whistle.
''We were up against a very determined Wigan side,'' he said.
''We were fantastic in the second half. We kept going, got a little break and we were the better team. A really gutsy performance.''
And Ferguson says he will prepare for Saturday's match in the same way.
''We'll approach the game the way we always approach a game," he added. ''It is against a very good Arsenal side - I don't take any notice of what is written, they are a very good side.''
