Ferguson Request for Advice Mourinho for Barca Beat



Manager of Manchester United (MU) Alex Ferguson will seek advice from his old rival Jose Mourinho about how to beat Barcelona. Manchester United will face Barcelona in the Champions League final round match at Wembley Stadium, England, May 28.

Ferguson apparently did not want to repeat mistakes of 2009, when MU was toppled 0-2 by Barcelona. Although admitted to not be afraid to prospective opponent who is favored, but Ferguson said he was open to receiving input from Real Madrid coach Mourinho who not long ago in King's Cup defeat Barcelona.

"I often talk to him. I even spoke to him last week. We both had knowledge about Barcelona, because we certainly have experience in dealing with this club. But you certainly want to get information from him (Mourinho), because he was always willing to help, "said Ferguson.

By passing the MU into the Champions League final, Ferguson became the second person who is able to bring his team rode six times in European competition final round. The first was when he was with the club Aberdeen, and five times with Manchester United, with the achievement of Champions finals four times.

The first coach that can achieve these achievements is Giovanni Trapattoni, with seven times pass his team into the final round of European competition. "The last we met (with Barca) in the Champions League final (2009) our favorites. This will be the experience for us to face a team that was in top condition, "said Ferguson.
