With Wednesday’s victory, United now move into the fourth round of the EFL Cup to set up another derby clash against Manchester City after Thursday’s draw was revealed.
Manchester rivals City and United have been drawn to face each other in the fourth round of the English football’s League Cup. I know that some football Einsteins – football is full of Einsteins – they try to delete 16 years of my career, to delete an unbelievable history of Man United and focus on a bad week.
Football is full of “Einsteins” who have tried to undermine Manchester United in the past week, according to Jose Mourinho.
Northampton had gone into the break level after Alex Revell netted from the spot, cancelling out a sumptuous strike from Michael Carrick on his first appearance since the Community Shield.
United’a attention now switches to Saturday’s game against champions Leicester City at Old Trafford, with Mourinho looking to avoid a third successive Premier League defeat for the first time in his career.
“We tried to play as quick as possible, one, two touches, I think the team needed that today because they were going to press a lot”.
Sunday’s defeat at Watford and last Thursday’s Europa League loss to Feyenoord continued a poor run started after the worldwide break by losing the Manchester derby.
Carrick added: ‘I think everyone has got to calm down a little bit in terms of how they react to all the changes in the team and who is not playing’.
“That’s football, I think”. “I can understand clearly the disappointment”.
However, Mourinho was keen to look at the upcoming games on the club’s fixture list, and delivered an annoyed response to recent criticism of him and his team.
Herrera said: “We had a awful week and we want to be positive”.
