Robin van Persie wears Marouane Fellaini-style wig at Manchester United Christmas Party

The players were in high spirits as they celebrate four straight wins

Manchester United's players plus their wives and girlfriends all let their hair down at the club's Christmas Party, especially Robin van Persie by the looks of things, the Dutch striker wearing a Marouane Fellaini-style afro wig.

Four wins on the bounce means United end the year in better circumstances than they started it.

Since the turn of the year, Louis van Gaal has replaced David Moyes and £160m of talent bought over the summer has catapulted them to fourth place in the division.

The players headed to The Place Aparthotel in Manchester following their 2-0 victory over Stoke City on Tuesday night for the party.
