Mourinho wants Carabao Cup scrapped
By Boluwatife Ezekiel Olaleye
Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has sensationally called for the Carabao Cup to be scrapped.
Mourinho stated this while speaking after his side’s 4-1 win over Burton Albion on Wednesday night, to reach the fourth round of the competition.
The Portuguese who has won the cup four times, says English football could do without it.
“If the competition is an official competition, then it’s important for Manchester United and for me as a manager.
“But if you ask me could English football survive or even be better without this competition? Maybe.
“Maybe we would be fresher for European competition, for example.
“But we have this competition, we have to respect the sponsors, we have to respect the opponents and a lot of us are trying to do our best,” Mourinho remarked.
