After thrashing Schalke 4-1 in the semis, Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson says his team are ready to rumble with Barcelona in the final at Wembley Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed that Manchester United should not be "frightened out of our skin" by the prospect of facing Barcelona in the Champions League final. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/may/MANU.jpg" border="5" /> Manchester United players congratulate Antonio Valencia (left) for his goal against Schalke during Tuesday's Champions League semi-final in Manchester. Red Devils won 4-1 (6-1 on aggregate). PIC/AFP United completed a 6-1 aggregate triumph over Schalke in their semi-final on Wednesday night, setting up a repeat of the 2009 final in Rome. On that occasion, the Red Devils were undone by goals from Samuel Eto'o and Lionel Messi and left Italy nursing a severe sense of underachievement. Since then, United have lost Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez, whilst Barcelona have added David Villa and confirmed their reputation as the best club side on the planet. But Ferguson insists his side should not harbour an inferiority complex. "I don't think we should be going there lacking in confidence," he said. "Their form has been very good this season and we will be playing a fantastic team. "But they haven't got a terror against us. We cannot be frightened out of our skin. We have got to find a solution to playing against them." Jose to help Man U To that end, Ferguson will be making contact with old friend Jose Mourinho, who has suffered painfully at Barcelona's hands already this season, most recently this week when Real Madrid were turned over in their own semi-final," said Ferguson. "I speak to him quite a lot. Real are a different team from us for a start." "I have watched them many times this season but we will take the information because Jose is very helpful that way." ufffd
