Chelsea boss Mourinho: Moyes has potential to win silverware for Man Utd

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says David Moyes has the "potential" to win silverware for Manchester United.

Mourinho will miss sharing time with his friend Sir Alex Ferguson at the game but he says his relationship with Moyes is good and has potential to move the same way.

On Moyes following such a legendary figure he said: "The history of Sir Alex is there forever. Is that a problem for David? I don't think so because I don't think David wants to be compared with Sir Alex.

"David is an experienced manager with years and year in the Premier League and this is the best moment of his career. He has maturity, experience, a big club, very good players so he is in a fantastic position and I think he is going to do very well. I hope he doesn't win everything and leaves something for the others, but he is in fantastic condition.

"Now he knows to be successful he has to win trophies, but he has the potential to do that."
