Former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has paid tribute to Jose Mourinho.

Ferguson isn't surprised seeing Mourinho top of the table with Chelsea.

"It is unfair really. He's good looking, he's got that sort of George Clooney bit in his hair now," Ferguson told BT Sport. "But I think he is a great example, he can speak five languages or whatever he can.

"He goes and becomes an interpreter for Bobby Robson, follows him to Barcelona, works under Louis Van Gaal; he is learning all the time."
