I'm not worried about Van Gaal --Mourinho

Jose Mourinho has "deep respect" for new Manchester United manager
Louis van Gaal -- but the Chelsea boss is not concerned about their
impending rivalry,Sportinglife reports.
The pair worked together for three years at Barcelona but will go
head-to-head this season, with Van Gaal having taken the reins at Old
Trafford following a successful World Cup with Holland.
He has also won titles in Spain, Holland and Germany with Barca, Ajax
and Bayern Munich and said at his introductory press conference that
he is aiming to add England to that list.
Mourinho -- whose Inter Milan side beat Van Gaal's Bayern in the 2010
Champions League final -- and Chelsea will be among the main rivals
standing in his way.
And the Portuguese told theMailon Sunday, "I'm not worried about him
being here. I look forward to playing against United. Nothing worries
me.
"I watched him at his press conference and he was pure Van Gaal --
honest and open, the way he always is.
"He is a very, very good coach, he'll be great for Manchester United."
"We are both great coaches. It's what we were born to do," said Mourinho.
"Louis was the best coach in the World Cup and he is a good friend --
really, a friend for life. I have deep respect for this man."
