Man Utd fans convinced Erik ten Hag will win TREBLE thanks to spooky coincidence in Carabao Cup final victory


MANCHESTER UNITED fans believe a remarkable coincidence could be a sign they are set to win another treble.

Erik ten Hag’s men will now seek to build on that success as they turn their attention towards their remaining three competitions.

Man Utd are in the fifth round of the FA Cup where they will host West Ham on Wednesday.

They are also into the Europa League last-16 where they have been drawn against Real Betis.

And they are in with an outside chance of winning the Premier League title, albeit while sitting eight points adrift of table toppers Arsenal.

It remains to be seen how many trophies United end up with… but one strange coincidence identified by Tom McDermott points towards a potential treble.

Man Utd’s 1999 side claimed the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.

In the FA Cup final, they beat Newcastle 2-0 thanks to goals from No10 Teddy Sheringham and No18 Paul Scholes.

And on Sunday, they beat Newcastle 2-0 in another final as No18 Casemiro gave them the lead before No10 Marcus Rashford doubled their advantage with his deflected strike.
