| Fergie plots Mourinho revenge |
Friday 19 December, 2008 |

Sir Alex Ferguson is looking forward to redrawing battle lines with old adversary Jose Mourinho.
The two men clashed regularly in England while Mourinho was in charge of Chelsea and the Special One enjoyed the better of the battles.
And now Sir Alex's Manchester United are preparing to play the Italian champions in the last 16 of the Champions League.
“They kept us hanging on as we were the last out of the hat, but it will be interesting to come up against Jose again,” Ferguson rasped on MUTV.
“He's a character with a good personality and I always got on well with him.
“He knocked us out of the competition when he was at Porto, so I hope we have the luck they had this time round.
“We have played against most of Inter's players over the years and we played them in a friendly at Old Trafford last year.
“We know all about them and we're looking to do the job there in the first game to give ourselves a platform at home.
“When you play against the bigger teams it gives you better focus as we showed against Barcelona last season.”
