Sir Alex Ferguson lavished praise on substitute Federico Macheda after his goal secured a 2-1 win at Sunderland to put Manchester United top of the table.
"He's got something special about him, the boy," said the United manager of the 17-year-old Italian striker.
"He has a good eye for goal, a terrific physique and is not shy about playing under pressure - that's credit to him.
"He wasn't fazed by anything. Right away, he got involved in the game and he had a good 20 minutes for us."
