Fergie questions Benitez
Sir Alex Ferguson has questioned the comments made by Rafa Benitez prior to his sides 3-1 defeat to Chelsea in midweek - wondering why the Spaniard choose to concentrate on him rather than his own sides Champions League match.
Fergie was quoted as saying "If you ask me a question about other teams, I'll give you an opinion. There's no fault in that. Arsčne Wenger was talking about Manchester United a couple of weeks ago when he was asked a question and he gave a fair answer. But the interesting thing as far as Rafa Benítez is concerned is that he's got a European tie [against Chelsea] and he's talking about Alex Ferguson. Fantastic – I didn't know I was that important."
Sir Alex also commented on the 'fantastic position' United are in at the moment - being the only side in England who can win all four trophies available at the start of the season. It doesn't matter what happened against Porto, we're still in the European Cup with a chance, we're still in the FA Cup semi-final with a chance, we're top of the league with a chance - so what more can I do but just remind the players why we got here? We're in a fantastic position."
