​Man Utd boss reckons he is more relaxed than Liverpool counterpart Klopp

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says he is looking forward to Sunday's home game against Liverpool.

"No-one is nervous. Everybody wants the game. I am sure Jurgen is the same," he says.

"It's three points, plus the emotional side of it. Fans and players here for a long time understand the feeling better than I do. I am here for a few months.

"It's a good rivalry. I always feel it is very good for the football clubs. But no more than three points."

Asked if both he and Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp are angry coaches, he says: "I just think we like to win. Everyone has his own personality, style and coaching and leading. Probably we have some similarities and other characteristics that make us different.

"He wants to play the game as much as I want, I am not sure if he is so calm as I am. It is one more big match."
