England striker Wayne Rooney joined the 100 club and Michael Owen got off the mark as Manchester United re-discovered that winning habit in emphatic style, 5-0 at Wigan.
Rooney made the breakthrough in the 56th minute and got his second nine minutes later in a fine second-half show.
In between, Dimitar Berbatov found the target in the 58th minute as United bounced back from their humbling by newly-promoted Burnley in midweek.
Owen made his mark in the 85th minute after replacing Rooney, and Nani completed the scoring in stoppage time with a superb free-kick.
The day, however, belonged to Rooney, such an unselfish worker, as he scored his 100th and 101st goals for the club.
Arsenal 4-1 Portsmouth

Hull C. 1-0 Bolton W.
