Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink insists he can handle the mind games of Manchester United counterpart Sir Alex Ferguson. Hiddink says the Blues are still in the title race.

Asked about Fergie's renowned reputation for intimidating other bosses, Hiddink smiled as he declared: "I don't know if people are scared of him.

"I was not scared. I don't know whether players or young managers are scared of him, but I'm not fully aware of everything. Why should up-and-coming managers be scared of him?

"I hope that we can stop him. I'd love to stop him on this aim. We have the ambition to be [involved] at the end of May in the important days, so we have to stop them. They could be classical clashes, but let's make a few steps first."
