Manchester United’s League Cup triumph over Southampton has boosted their belief that the Premier League giants have the ability to add both the Europa League and the FA Cup to their trophy haul this season, right-back Antonio Valencia said.

United have a tricky two-legged last-16 Europa League clash against Russian side Rostov this month, and they face formidable Chelsea in their FA Cup quarterfinal on March 13.

“This is the mentality that we have – that trophy has given us much confidence. We are thinking about these three trophies. I think we can do it,” Valencia told British media. “We have to realise we are Manchester United and that we can go on to win these three trophies.”
