Man Utd is predicted to eat only three

On February 26, Man Utd beat Newcastle 2-0 in the League Cup final to win the first title since 2017, thereby ending the club's longest title thirst in the past 40 years.

Former midfielder Owen Hargreaves says that "the golden age has returned to Man Utd", while Paul Scholes believes that Erik ten Hag's army can win four titles. The "Red Devils" are currently third in the Premier League, 11 points behind the top of the table Arsenal but have played less than one match. In the remaining two arenas, the army under coach Erik ten Hag will meet Burnley in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup on March 17, and face Real Betis in the 1/8 round of the Europa League.

According to Murphy, Man Utd lost in the race to win the Premier League - where they battled Liverpool this week, but is a strong candidate in the FA Cup and Europa League. "I'm a bit worried that Man Utd can play really well this season, and I say so as a Liverpool fan," he commented on talkSPORT. "For the Premier League, it's great to have them back."

Murphy emphasized that Man Utd is the highest rated Europa League and only met a difficult opponent, Man City in the FA Cup. The 45-year-old former midfielder also said that Man Utd would only be prevented from sublimation if Casemiro or Marcus Rashford were injured. "I think Man Utd can win the treble. They may not, but have done it before. Winning titles and winning gives confidence. Just playing the way they are playing now, it will be difficult. stop them?" Murphy continued.

Ten Hag said Man Utd did not celebrate or parade the League Cup because they wanted to focus on the rest of the season. Luke Shaw shared the Dutch teacher's opinion when he emphasized: "We did not celebrate too passionately after winning the League Cup. Of course, the whole team felt great in the dressing room when we won the first title. I think having tasted that, we want more and that's the goal for the rest of the season."

Murphy began his career at Crewe Alexandra and then played for Liverpool from 1997-2004. Here, he scored the decisive goal against great rival Man Utd at Old Trafford in three matches in the Premier League, helping Liverpool to win with a score of 1-0. After that, Murphy played for Charlton Athletic, Tottenham, and Fulham in turn, then retired in the Blackburn Rovers shirt.

Murphy won the treble with Liverpool in 2000-2001, with the League Cup, FA Cup and UEFA Cup - the precursor to the Europa League. At that time, Liverpool was ridiculed by Man Utd fans for celebrating the victory "Mickey Mouse Triumph", referring to winning three minor titles.

But talkSPORT commented that Man Utd fans will no longer hold this view, if the club wins more FA Cup and Europa League in May.
