Mourinho is dead right about Arsenal: Fergie

MANCHESTER UNITED manager Alex Ferguson has backed Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho’s claim that Arsenal receive preferential treatment when the fixture list is decided.

Mourinho's words earned an FA rebuke, but Ferguson claims he has been complaining about the issue for seven years.

Mourinho had said: "After the first five games of next season's Champions League we have to play away while Arsenal are at home. This is a fact yet nothing is said. Is it only Jose Mourinho who can look at the fixture list and see something very strange?
