Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson does not feel that his players need to be cautioned about their conduct ahead of Wednesday night's League Cup semi-final second leg with Manchester City.
City take a 2-1 lead into the game at Old Trafford, with a war of words between Citizens' striker Carlos Tevez and United veteran Gary Neville inflaming an already tense situation.
Greater Manchester Police have urged players from both sides to behave responsibly, but Ferguson feels that his players are experienced enough to already know how to behave.
"I don't pay any attention to all that," he told reporters at his press conference on Tuesday.

City take a 2-1 lead into the game at Old Trafford, with a war of words between Citizens' striker Carlos Tevez and United veteran Gary Neville inflaming an already tense situation.
Greater Manchester Police have urged players from both sides to behave responsibly, but Ferguson feels that his players are experienced enough to already know how to behave.
"I don't pay any attention to all that," he told reporters at his press conference on Tuesday.
"The player behaviour has always been perfect. We have great players who play to the right rules of the game.
"We have never had any issues in big games. Look at the record. I am not worried about it."
And the United boss insisted that his men will be focused on reaching Wembley and not on any personal vendettas.
"We have enough experience of playing in big games to know it is important to keep your head," he added.
"It is always a key factor. We have had feisty games against the likes of Leeds and Liverpool since I have been here.
"Player behaviour has always been good. It has never been an issue."
