« He was so impressive, wasn’t he? I think he has scored a quarter if not a third of all goals in his career this season so he has really moved up. He has a fair amount of experience behind him, he has played at different levels in the Football League and he knows what you need to do to achieve goals at different levels in the game and I think that served him well to to get to where he is right now.

« Since working with Ancelotti and Duncan Ferguson, it’s like they’ve helped him see where he’ll be most effective. Within the breadth of the target, the one-touch finishing is a position where his jump and stature pose a real threat. If you get the service he got, it will be highlighted on his target return. « 

« It really matters, especially when you look at some of the managers who won it before and what they achieved then. I know it was Jose Mourinho’s first trophy in England and I think that win made his team believe they could win the Premier League, as did Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

« If you can get that winning mentality in your squad, win silver, and show the players that your ability to win a trophy is good, then you will achieve what you set out to do, and I think that is the case of Ancelotti. It’s nothing new for him to compete in the final stages of a cup competition and I think the first silver piece of the season is hugely important.

« He knows how to get over the line, he knows how to win certain games, and what he needs is a roster to make that happen. He’s a very experienced manager, he has the knowledge of how to win trophies at a club and I feel like the players and the club are using this quite well right now. I think he’s building a squad that is gradually becoming capable of winning trophies. « 

“The last time Everton won silver was in 1995. It’s something that is badly needed in the club and I feel like Carlo Ancelotti takes it very seriously. He understands that winning a trophy would be huge for the club and the fans and I think we’ve seen that with his team selection in the Carabao Cup so far this season. « 

« Yes, the mind is very good and why shouldn’t it be that way? ». At first we won the last game, but after the early setback in December, we also got some good results. Everyone deserves recognition. They were focused and we know we have a game every three days and that they recovered very well between games. Every game is like a cup final – the next you have is the most important. Then let’s address any problems or injuries. ”

« We want to improve each season and improve on last year by reaching the final. When you reach the final, only one thing is important and that is to get the trophy. « .

« I remember winning my first trophy, and towards the end of my career it was probably Patrice Evra and Nemanja Vidic’s first trophy in the 2006 Worthington Cup, right? I think that was her first trophy and she gives something to a team, so we really want to get our hands on a trophy.

Everton is the team with the highest number of points in the League Cup this season and has scored 12 goals so far. You have only scored more goals in six previous campaigns in the competition, most recently in 2015/16 (13). .

Since the start of the 2017/18 season, only Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin (10) has scored more league cup goals than Marcus Rashford (7) from Man Utd. .

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has won all six of his league cup away games, two with Cardiff City and four with Manchester United, three of the four with Man Utd against Premier League opponents – Chelsea, Man City and Brighton.

The last League Cup meeting between Everton and Manchester United took place in November 1993 in the fourth round. The Red Devils won 2-0 at Goodison Park with goals from Ryan Giggs and Mark Hughes.

Manchester United want to win away games against Everton for the first time since September 2007 (three times in a row) in all competitions, while the Red Devils have only beaten Everton twice in the previous season so in 1993/94 (once in the league , once in the league cup).

Everton have reached the quarter-finals of the League Cup for the first time since 1986/87 and 1987/88 in consecutive seasons. The Toffees lost on penalties after a 2-2 draw with Leicester City at this stage last season.

Manchester United want to reach the semi-finals of the League Cup for the first time since 2008/09 and 2009/10 and beat Colchester United from the second division 3-0 in the quarter-finals last season.

« It’s something we strive for. We want to improve each season and improve on last year by reaching the final. When you reach the final, only one thing is important and that is to get the trophy. I remember winning my first trophy, and towards the end of my career it was probably Patrice Evra and Nemanja Vidic’s first trophy in the 2006 Worthington Cup, right? I think that was her first trophy and she gives something to a team, so we really want to get our hands on a trophy. These players are dying to learn how to win. ”
