Manchester United put the pain of their Champions League exit behind them with a 4-1 Premier League win at home to strugglers Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday. Victory, secured by two goals apiece from Nani and Wayne Rooney, saw reigning English champions United close to within two points of leaders Manchester City. But cross-town rivals City -- also knocked out of the Champions League in midweek -- will restore their five-point advantage at the top of the table if they win away to Chelsea on Monday. Elsewhere, Arsenal marked their 125th anniversary with a 1-0 win at home to Everton thanks to a goal from in-form striker Robin van Persie and Liverpool beat QPR by the same scoreline thanks to Luis Suarez's first goal in six games. At the other end of the table, Wigan climbed off the bottom with a come from behind 2-1 win over West Brom while Bolton became the new basement club following a 2-1 defeat by Aston Villa. Meanwhile Norwich held off 10-man Newcastle to win 4-2 at Carrow Road while promoted Swansea beat Fulham 2-0. Nani gave United, whose Champions League campaign was ended by a shock defeat away to Swiss side Basel, a 17th minute lead with a low shot from 20 yards out for his first goal in 18 games. The Portuguese winger then turned provider 10 minutes later at Old Trafford before Rooney's shot through a crowd of players went into the far corner. For England forward Rooney it was his first league goal in nine games. Steven Fletcher pulled a goal back for Wolves early in the second half with a header but United restored their two-goal lead after Nani grabbed his second when he turned in Antonio Valencia's cross. Valencia was also the provider when Rooney made it 4-1 after the hour mark. Van Persie broke the deadlock at the Emirates with a brilliant left foot volley 20 minutes from time. Liverpool's pressure at Anfield was rewarded Suarez headed in two minutes after half-time. High-flyers Newcastle fell behind away to Norwich when, from a 39th minute corner, a goalmouth scramble ended with Wes Hoolahan putting the Canaries ahead. But Newcastle were level before half-time when striker Demba Ba ran on to Yohan Cabaye's through ball for his 10th goal in as many league games. Norwich, however, then scored two goals in four minutes with headers from Grant Holt and Steve Morison. But 10-man Newcastle it 3-2 when Ba scored his second. Holt though made it 4-2 when he headed in from 12 yards. At the other end of the table, West Brom went ahead against Wigan at the Hawthorns when midfielder Steven Reid curled in a 22-yard free-kick. But minutes later Victor Moses drew Wigan level with a curling strike of his own from the edge of the box. And Wigan went ahead in the 57th minute when Jordi Gomez scored from the penalty spot after Reid fouled Moses. Aston Villa took the lead away to Bolton when the unmarked Marc Albrighton turned in a cross from Gabriel Agbonlahor 12 minutes before half-time. More poor defending then saw Bolton fail to close down Stiliyan Petrov who then tried his luck with a long-range shot that went in via a deflection off Gary Cahill. Bolton hit back when Ivan Klasnic latched on to a corner clearance in the 55th minute. Swansea saw Scott Sinclair's 56th minute strike deflected into his own net by Fulham's Clint Dempsey. United States international Dempsey had the chance to equalise but his penalty was superbly saved by Michel Vorm. Swansea substitute Danny Graham then sealed victory on the stroke of full-time. Tottenham Hotspur, who started the weekend in third place, are away to Stoke on Sunday when Sunderland, in Martin O'Neill's first game as their manager, face fellow drop candidates Blackburn Rovers.
