EFL Cup can serve as a "springboard" to more silverware for Mourinho, Man United

Manchester United will make their fourth trip to Wembley in 10 months on Sunday when they face Southampton in the League Cup final.

If United win, Jose Mourinho will become the first manager at the club to win a trophy in his first season, although he's claimed this isn't what motivates him. During Friday's news conference, he claimed individual plaudits drove him on in the beginning of his career, but now he's a "club man". He recognises that silverware for the club is more important than another medal to add to his collection.

Mourinho has overseen 12 cup finals in his career, with his team winning on 10 occasions.
