Mazzarri rejects Mourinho feud claims

Walter Mazzarri is adamant he has a good relationship with Manchester United's Jose Mourinho.

Watford's Walter Mazzarri claims he has no problem with Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho despite a series of disagreements in Italy.

The two men had a complicated relationship during their time together in Serie A, with Mourinho, who served as Inter coach from 2008 to 2010, verbally assaulting the ex-Sampdoria and Napoli boss on more than one occasion.

Nevertheless, Mazzarri is adamant he gets on with the Portuguese and is ready to have a post-match drink with his rival.

"I have a very good relationship with Mourinho," Mazzarri stated at a news conference.
