Wine for Jose

BBC SPORT Football Premiership Ferguson lauds Mourinho dignity:

I cannot believe how friendly Sir Alex is being toward Jose Mourinho, after all that has gone on this season:

"Ferguson said: 'Jose understands winning and losing are twins in a way.

'You have to deal with them in the same way. When you win, you don't gloat and when you lose you don't go bananas.

'He was very complimentary after their draw at Arsenal and I'll bring him a decent bottle of wine to make sure his tastes are looked after.'"
