5 things we learned from Manchester United v Southampton

Masterful Mourinho

The ‘Special One’ retained his 100 per cent in League Cup finals, winning all four bouts – three with Chelsea, and now his first with Manchester United.

Mourinho moves joint-top alongside Brian Clough and Sir Alex Ferguson as managers to have won the competition the most times.

In fact, The Red Devils boss has never lost an English domestic cup final in his career.

Remarkable.
