MANCHESTER (PA Sport) - Ferguson was delighted with his side's continuing response to their 2-1 derby defeat by Manchester City a fortnight ago.
He said: "We were all disappointed with the performance against Manchester City and the players did their best to atone for that against Arsenal last week and in midweek against Lyon, which was a very good result.
"And today stresses the urgency to try to do better and be top of the league."
Ferguson also hailed his forwards and said: "We freshened up the midfield.
"But really the match was settled by the ability of the front players who were absolutely fantastic, we could have scored more goals.
"They (the forwards) all did really well, Ronaldo and Rooney will take the headlines but the movement of (Carlos) Tevez and the penetration of Nani (added) to all that.
"It was a good team performance, I'm delighted, because coming to Newcastle is never easy, it is a volatile place to come.
