Man Utd boss Ferguson admits knowing little about Chelsea rival AVB

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits he knows precious little about Chelsea rival Andre Villas-Boas.

Ferguson will lock horns with Villas-Boas for the first time later this month and Ferguson admits he does not know a great deal about the Portuguese.

"He has a different set-up there to me, but I'm sure he'll get plenty of advice from others and he'll do fine. I don't know much about him," said Ferguson.

"He's a young man and it's a big step coming into the Premier League from the Portuguese championship, but given time and support anything is possible."
