Once again José Mourinho has been proved right. The Manchester United manager respects the League Cup, plays strong teams throughout the competition and he takes home the trophy. I think other people will follow his lead next season and pay more respect to this competition. Having said that, United were lucky to win what was one of the most exciting games I have seen in this competition. Southampton were excellent and striker Manolo Gabbiadini deserved to be on the winning side.
