In the fourth round of the Carabao Cup, Mourinho had already decided to bring some substitutes on the pitch to find form, including Boshingwa, who has not started this season, but when he submitted the squad at the last minute before the game, Bosingwa was unexpectedly defeated.

The players didn't react much to Bosingwa's dismissal either, as on their first day at the club, they found a booklet in the cupboard of their dressing room, which was the Red Rebels' team rules, the foremost and most important of which was that the door to the manager's office was open at all times.

This is to tell all the players that if you have any problems, you can go directly to the manager and negotiate with the manager to solve it, if you can't even solve it with the manager, and the club owner, but it's so big that even the owner and the manager can't solve it, then I really don't know what it is.

However, Boshingwa complained in a media interview that he should have been given more appearances or he would prefer to return to Portugal, saying that his agent had told him that there were several Portuguese teams interested in him.

Everyone knew that this was against the rules of the team, and Bosingwa was starting to look a little out of place in the dressing room, even his Portuguese compatriot, and the little Ronaldo didn't know how to talk to him, and the two usually just nodded and said hello when they met.

This time the Carabao Cup is against Derby County from League One, who are currently lower in the league table but have performed well in the Carabao Cup and reached the fourth round.

The new Manchester United fielded a number of players who were considered to be substitutes for this game, but Mourinho did not admit it, he believes that his team has no substitutes, only the main players who have made fewer appearances, and all the players who can enter the first team are the main players and contribute to the team.

Jose Mourinho didn't put too much pressure on his side for this Carabao Cup, with a league game to go, followed by a two-legged UEFA Cup tie against Austrian Vienna, which will cause a lot of problems for the new Manchester United.

Didier Drogba, Curtis and Essien, who have been suspended for three league games, are also in the starting line-up and have not played for more than half a month, and Mourinho will be hoping to adjust their form through this game.

The two wingers are Franck Ribery and Palacio, with De Rossi, Yaya Toure and Essien playing in the middle of the midfield, Filippo Lahm, Nemanja Vidic, Curtis and Kolo Toure at the back from left to right, and Almunia in goal.

This tactic is also specifically designed to take into account the games in which Juninho Jr. will be in charge of controlling the tempo of the team, and Mourinho has often arranged for the three of them to be together in training, and now they need to test the results of training with a real game.

The real game is different from the training, no matter how intense the training is, it will never catch up with the real game, it is a bayonet bloody white-knuckle battle.

Although they performed well in training, the performance of the three midfielders in this Carabao Cup was still lacking, although all three were both offensive and defensive, and they were also very physical, and did a good job defensively, but at the moment of the transition between attack and defence, they never found the feeling, which made the new Manchester United's attacking organization a bit chaotic.

In this case, Mourinho changed his team's midfield tactics at half-time, with De Rossi as the metronome, with Essien and Yaya Toure on the side to help him, also because of the three midfielders, De Rossi's attacking ability is the best, and he has a certain big picture on the field.

After this adjustment, the attack of the new Manchester United has gradually begun to improve, De Rossi's skills are better than in the previous life, especially in the past two or three years in the new Manchester United to receive technical intensive training, great progress, recently learned from Redondo, and also has a certain experience in controlling the rhythm of the midfield.

Essien and Yaya Toure on the left and right also helped De Rossi in attack while juggling defence, which made the new Manchester United midfield rise up again, and in the 73rd minute of the second half, Palacio assisted Drogba to score a goal.

The one-goal lead was maintained until the end of the game, with the new United reaching the quarter-finals, the only non-Premier League team to reach the quarter-finals.

Through this match, everyone realized that there was a problem, and that was the importance of Juninho Jr. to the Red Rebels.

You know, the low-key Brazilian has been inconspicuous all season, except for a set-piece, everyone knows that he is the core, but they don't know what he has in mind.

Now, through this game, everyone realizes that his role is in the organization.

Kaka is undoubtedly one of the best performers this season, and his role in attack is particularly obvious, but it's in attack, but whether it's Kaka, Hleb, Drogba or Villa, they all need someone behind them to help them organise, and that person is usually Juninho Jr.

At this time, everyone also realized why Mourinho frequently said in interviews with the media that the most important player of the new Manchester United is Juninho Jr., because so far, no one in the new Manchester United team is suitable to serve as a substitute for Juninho.

De Rossi is very optimistic, but he is obviously not up to the level of Juninho Jr., especially in the next 15th round of the league, Juninho Jr. accumulated yellow cards and was suspended for one game, De Rossi served as the starter, partnering with Senna in the back, but the performance still did not give people enough confidence, and the ability to sort out the midfield was still lacking.

Despite De Rossi's diligence on the pitch and frequent use of running to link up the team's attack, he still failed to play the role of a playmaker, causing Kaka to drop back often to respond to the tandem, which allowed the new Manchester United to curb their attacking attack.

It was a tough game, but in the end, the new United were able to secure a hard-fought away victory thanks to a tenacious defence and a late assist from Arjen Robben for Hleb.

But as the outside world said, the new Manchester United is really completely suffering from Juninho Jr.'s dependence!

Austria Vienna have been in excellent form in the Austrian Superliga and are currently top of the standings over arch-rivals Rapid Vienna, despite the fact that Austria has only 10 teams in total.

Vienna's biggest star is De Djaminha, who is on loan from Deportivo La Coruna, and despite his fiery temper, despite his falling out with the manager at Deportivo La Coruna, and despite the fact that he is 32 years old, he is still Vienna's most dangerous player.

In the UEFA Cup, Vienna will be looking to help Austria Vienna go further and prove their quality again.

Speaking to the media, De Jaminha said that this is already a match that he is ready to win in the Vienna plan, because only a victory over the Red Rebels will be able to reach the round of 32.

The Red Rebels at home also did not dare to despise De Giaminha, and Mourinho even asked Essien, who started in place of Senna, to stare at De Giaminha and not give him any chances, and at the same time let Curtis in the back line press forward, not leaving too much room for De Giaminha to move.

Jose Mourinho is very fond of Essien as a player, especially for his physical running and excellent technical and tactical execution in the game, and when Mourinho asked Essien to keep an eye on De Jaminha, Essien must have completed his task without compromise.

In the first game at Old Trafford, Essien didn't give Dejaminha a chance to cause problems, especially defensively, he knew that Dejaminha's skills were very good, he just didn't go to the grabs, he stuck his position firmly, whatever you shook when you dribbled the ball, I just didn't move and wasn't confused by your feints.

But once you want to pass my area, then I'm sorry, I won't let you pass the ball if you can break it, and if you can't break it, I'll foul it!

Essien is now playing smarter and smarter, he is no longer as strong as at the beginning, using his body to foul, he is more intelligent to use some foul actions that will not be carded, which makes the hot-tempered Dejaminha very unbearable, frequently protesting to the referee, but each time he failed to get the result he wanted.

In attack, De Djaminha's two Brazilian compatriots were outstanding, notably Kaka, who gave his side the home lead with a long-range shot from the edge of the box after a high-speed dribble down the middle.

Kaka then set up Hleb for another goal at the start of the second half.

After conceding two goals in a row, the Vienna team also played more and more impatiently, and Dejaminha, who bore the brunt of the attack, also grew angry, and in a confrontation with Essien, he kicked Essien in the shin under the nose of the referee, causing the latter to fall to the ground and was shown a yellow card by the referee.

But he didn't relentlessly chase after the referee to complain, thinking that he was rushing to the ball, and he couldn't stop kicking Essien, the referee did not accept his explanation, he waved his hand angrily, and when he turned to leave, he didn't know what to complain about, and the referee heard it, and immediately chased him, and then gave him a yellow card, and sent him off the field with a red card.

Dejaminha's dismissal made the game completely meaningless, especially with the Red Rebels in control, the biggest threat on the pitch was removed, the pressure on the team was relaxed, and the offensive momentum became more intense.

Towards the end of the second half, Hleb set up a header from Didier Drogba from the right to score 3-0 for the new Reds to win at home, and at the same time make the away game two weeks later meaningless, reaching for the last 32 of the UEFA Cup.

Immediately after the team's home win, Xiao Yu left Old Trafford with Walsh and David and rushed to the construction site of the Red Rebels Stadium, where a special guest was waiting for Xiao Yu.
