"Maybe the tactic is to unsettle the boy, I dont know. Hes
barking up the wrong tree there, but I think he was below the belt
bringing class into it."

Boss ends Jose row
Sir Alex Ferguson is keen to bring an end to the ongoing
disagreement between Cristiano Ronaldo and Chelsea manager Jose
Mourinho.
The Portuguese pair traded caustic remarks through the media late
last week before Mourinho brought into question the wingers
upbringing and education.
Well try to draw a line under this, of course, said Sir Alex,
who was understandably keen to focus on the small matter of his
sides Champions League semi-final decider in Milan.
Maybe the tactic is to unsettle the boy, I dont know. Hes
barking up the wrong tree there, but I think he was below the belt
bringing class into it. Coming from a poor working class does not
mean to say youre not educated.
The boss did praise Ronaldo, however, for not being drawn into a
high-profile slanging match with the Stamford Bridge chief.
What Ronaldo has got is principles, said Sir Alex. The boys not
responded to it whereas some people who are educated have no
principles, so were leaving the matter that way.
