Ahead of the League Cup final between Manchester United and Southampton, Eric Cantona believes that we will win more than one trophy.
After the League Cup final today, United are still in the FA Cup and Europa League, with the possibility of reaching the final.
I think they will win more than one trophy this season and the first one will be this one. Mourinho is a winner, he has won a lot of things and he is a great manager. I think United will win many things.
The first one is important, I think. In a club like United, of course, you have the pressure of winning things so, when you win one, you have less pressure but people ask for more of course, and Mourinho doesn’t have any kind of problem with the pressure. He has been around for many years, he has been a manager of many great clubs and has won things with all of them, and improved the team every time, so he will win. They will win it, don’t worry! [Smiles].
I think he plays more attacking football than he used to play and he tries to understand the expectation all the time [of the club]. He is a very intelligent man, very clever, and he has a great sense of humour. I always said that before he came to United. He takes all the pressure on him, he doesn’t care about any kind of pressure. He’s great psychologically. He takes all the pressure on him so it’s less pressure on others and so the players can enjoy [it].
