Van Persie heaps praise on 2-goal Man Utd debutant James Wilson

Manchester United striker Robin van Persie was delighted for James Wilson after victory over Hull City. Wilson struck twice on debut in the 3-1 win.

"James played really well," enthused van Persie to MUTV. "I know how hard it is to make your debut - I made mine when I was about 29! I know how special it can be. He made it very special for himself and for everyone tonight. To score two goals is really special."
