Jose Mourinho is confident his friendship with Sir Alex Ferguson will continue no matter what the outcome of this week's Champions League showdown between Manchester United and Real Madrid.
Mourinho met with Ferguson ahead of United's 2-0 win over Everton at Old Trafford yesterday, an indication of the close relationship between the pair.
And, while the Madrid boss knows no quarter is going to be given at the Bernabeu on Wednesday, nor Old Trafford three weeks later, he thinks his relationship with Ferguson is strong enough for the loser to feel a small degree of pleasure at the other man's success.
