Injury to the squad is definitely what no one ever wants in their squad and with the amount of players that are injured, it will be hard seeing Manchester united cope especially as it concerns these youngster's who are the core heart of this Manchester united team. If we talk about their performance and how they are going to keep up with the Europa league campaign is going be difficult because even when these players are active there hopes of success is not certain but when they have this injury it would be even more impossible.
Honestly it's going to be a hard one on Manchester United as they are not having a firm squad as anticipated, having multiple injuries even before the start of the season is such that can affect and play down on the psychology of the rest of the other players but then it's such that can be managed if the coach has got such resilience that can make the team have some more confidence and believe that they don't have to really depend on the presence of those who have been absent for them to be at their best. I'm hoping Manchester United gets better so they can get something really good off the Europa next season.Recently they are having few injuries with their performance was also not good in pre-season games, but they are still hopeful for better results on other side Manchester City is also having end their losing streak against Chelsea in 6 goals thriller most chances we will have unpredictable Manchester United and their performance in UEFA Europa Cup could be also not good because they are still had too many issues which are needed to be fixed but nothing happening.

Honestly what happened to Manchester United last season it can still repeat himself this season, which will even worse them last, because those 2 players that want to injury now are among of the talent players in Manchester United and when it comes that they cannot participate in this coming league, that means team will know going function anymore because the remaining players will not bring any positive changes to the team.
If he can build good chemistry and put ego aside and only focus on improving performance then maybe the situation will change because he is also always given freedom for the players he handles. It's just that if the conditions remain the same where he does the same training pattern then indeed things that happened in the previous 2 seasons could happen in the coming season.
We have questioned a lot about Manchester United's decision to entrust the coaching chair to Ten Hag but it's too late now so we just have to wait for what steps Ten Hag will take in the management of Mancehster United to be better next season. When things do not go according to plan, he must be prepared for criticism that is always scathing to him because it is indeed a form of risk, especially Manchester United's decision to keep Ten Hag can be considered a big mistake.
Manchester United finds themselves in difficult circumstances. Injury numbers are rising, and the coach isnt exactly inspiring. Others even label him as the worst coach on Earth. Harsh? Maybe. Precise? Possibly. Adversity besets even the best teams. And their response to that difficulty defines them. For Manchester United, this may mark a sea change. Ten Hag might be the turning point when he shows everyone wrong, changes his strategy, and releases a fresh batch of brilliance. It could be the final blow. A second opportunity awaits in the Europa League. Its about proving the world Manchester United still has fight left in them, not about winning everything. even with the worst coach on the planet under direction. Let us therefore observe what happens. It may be the beginning of something magnificent or a catastrophe.
We might have all found some tactics from Erik Ten Hag questionable or might have had him on the wrong side due to his policies or man management of players as it also affects some of our most loved players but labeling him as the worst coach ever is definitely coming only from a hater, no matter how one decides to disguise it, that statement isn’t coming from a sporting perspective but pure hatred. I wouldn’t even list his achievements but I tell you this he has been the second best manager behind Mourinho post sir Alex Ferguson era in terms of trophies number.
The whole injury situation is something that I think is just kind of unfortunate for them, but considering how they struggled with it last year, they Need to start looking for solutions like looking into the medical personnels and see what Is actually causing the problem
The next UEFA super Cup final between Real Madrid vs. Atalanta will be staged next August 14 According to you will mister Ancelotti be able to hold off mister Gasperini and win yet another trophy of his career? Or will Gasperini surprise us once again? In my opinion it is a one-sided match, Real Madrid will win without too much effort, what do you think?
The old format is good and it is been very good way to determine champions even though the draw do favor some teams.
This new format will be good and any team that emerge to be the winner of either the UEFA Champions League, Europa League or conference league would have followed big strategy that will make them to worth the championship. I think squad depth will actually say a lot in the entire process, but luck will still work on some teams and experience will actually tell a lot in the process. The next season’s Champions League and Europa League will be interesting to watch.

For every change, there is improvement and room for more clubs to have opportunity to participate with the big teams in the competition. The change they made is okay because personally i feel it gives room for more competitive play. Even smaller teams that have tried their best enough, they’ll get a chance to participate in the tournament and get some experience that will further improve their nature of football. The new format may look complicated for now since it’s just the first time they’ll be trying it but after this round, I think a lot of things will become more visible with time and understanding for us all without any confusion attached afterwards. The new format is great and will make a lot of people have chance to participate.
Injury to the squad is definitely what no one ever wants in their squad and with the amount of players that are injured, it will be hard seeing Manchester united cope especially as it concerns these youngster's who are the core heart of this Manchester united team. If we talk about their performance and how they are going to keep up with the Europa league campaign is going be difficult because even when these players are active there hopes of success is not certain but when they have this injury it would be even more impossible.
The young players who are injured with a short recovery period I think can still make a good contribution to the Manchester United team next season. Because what can be very detrimental to the team is if the injured players have to recover for a long time and don't have more time to play next season, whether it's in the Europa League or in their own domestic league. So I think Manchester United can definitely cope with that very well when they go into next season even though they might not be able to dominate like other teams straight away.Even though they are still young but in reality, based on the information circulating, they also need a long time to recover, like three months or maybe it could be faster or it could be longer. But the point is, suffering an injury in a pre-season match is clearly very unfortunate, because Erik ten Hag should also only play second-string players, at least to keep the main players healthy so Manchester United can start the new season well. Indeed, to play matches in the Europa League, at least Manchester United will still have time to recover the main squad which is injured.
However, if for example they need a longer time to recover, then of course Manchester United's performance will not be optimal for the start of the season or half of season. But indeed, because they are still relatively young players, then Manchester United should have the right method so that they can recover from their injuries more quickly as expected.

Obviously this is good step, but it is not guaranteed, the most important thing is that we try to believe in Ten Hag ability and see how next season they will go through the season with several competitions that are followed.
For today they were defeated by Liverpool in the pre-season match, but in the future hopefully there will be clear change and can really play well in the Premier League and the Europa League.
I find so many replies and comments about the new Europa format recently, before now it wasn't discussed this much but as the kick off for the new season is approaching, the discussion about it is becoming even more engaging and so many persons are making their inputs about it and what they really do think about it too
From my point of view it's only a better filter to seeing how deserving a team is when they eventually lift the trophy and at the same time, it's bringing about a form of all inclusiveness amongst all of the team who are going to be participating in the Europa this season unlike the former pattern where some teams may not get too engaged enough before they crash out of the Europa but this time I think it's different. What's your take? Do you have a border perspective of what it's going to look like? Pls share.
Personally, I have similar opinions with yours about the new format of the UEFA Europa League and that's because of the extra opportunities it provides so clubs that are very unlikely to feature in the competition if the organizers had continued with the former format. Clubs from the lower leagues in Europe now have better chances of competing in the competition which will in turn give them the global audience they rarely enjoy. Also, winning the competition in the new format is more energy demanding than the former which makes it more difficult.From my point of view it's only a better filter to seeing how deserving a team is when they eventually lift the trophy and at the same time, it's bringing about a form of all inclusiveness amongst all of the team who are going to be participating in the Europa this season unlike the former pattern where some teams may not get too engaged enough before they crash out of the Europa but this time I think it's different.

Next season will be the first time the new format will take effect and I think majority of European football fans can't any longer to see it's uniqueness before they can start comparing it to the former format
Silkeborg IF 3 - 2 Molde FK
In the first leg, Molde played at home and won, they did very well to the point of scoring 3 goals and conceding only 1 goal, so I thought that in this second leg, despite them playing away from home, they could at least get a draw, something that in my opinion was not an impossible mission, but after just 3 minutes Molde committed a penalty, I thought what the hell are these guys doing? Committing a penalty in the 3rd minute? I was already starting to get worried because I made a multibet bet and put them on my multibet bet
Thanks to the penalty, Silkeborg scored a goal, after 20 minutes Molde scored an equalizer and left me calm and the 1st half ended. When the second half started, Silkeborg scored the second goal in the first few minutes, I was worried again, but in the 80th minute the Silkeborg player received a red card and in the 81st minute Molde scored the equalizer, this made me very calm, because the game was tied and Silkeborg had only 10 players and I assumed that they would not risk attacking with only 10 players, but to my shock in the 88th minute Silkeborg scored the third goal and they won the game.
This Molde team is a disappointment
Silkeborg football team won the match against Molde football team. Match was interesting and both teams played excellent in this match and match was not one sided because both teams keep kicked good and both teams . That was a match of UEFA Europa Cup and that match was done in JYSK Park stadium and that is second qualifying round .Adamsen was prominent player in this match because he did 2 goals in this match and when he did first goal in 3 minutes of the match,the opponent team felt pressure and after some time he did second goal in the 57 minutes of first round. While shots of Molde football team were more in number as comparison to Silkeborg team but that team could not win this match.In the first leg, Molde played at home and won, they did very well to the point of scoring 3 goals and conceding only 1 goal, so I thought that in this second leg, despite them playing away from home, they could at least get a draw, something that in my opinion was not an impossible mission, but after just 3 minutes Molde committed a penalty, I thought what the hell are these guys doing?

Silkeborg really managed to surprise me in the return game... They lost the first game 1:3, but in the home game they put up a fight and managed to score a goal even after getting a red card... Although Molde in my opinion is a stronger and more experienced club... In any case, the second match was very entertaining...

The injuries that plagued Man United last season, it seems will still haunt them. One of the goals of playing friendly
Injury to the squad is definitely what no one ever wants in their squad and with the amount of players that are injured, it will be hard seeing Manchester united cope especially as it concerns these youngster's who are the core heart of this Manchester united team. If we talk about their performance and how they are going to keep up with the Europa league campaign is going be difficult because even when these players are active there hopes of success is not certain but when they have this injury it would be even more impossible.
Ten Hag began to be confused by the situation that was happening to his players, before the season started he had to lose several key players due to injury. The absence of several key players will certainly affect Manchester United's performance and the same situation occurred in the previous season, Ten Hag had difficulty making Manchester United compete because the squad he coached was limping. The big demands from Manchester United Management will make Ten Hag's task even harder, on the one hand he is required to win the title, while on the other hand he cannot do much because of injured main players.Injury to the squad is definitely what no one ever wants in their squad and with the amount of players that are injured, it will be hard seeing Manchester united cope especially as it concerns these youngster's who are the core heart of this Manchester united team. If we talk about their performance and how they are going to keep up with the Europa league campaign is going be difficult because even when these players are active there hopes of success is not certain but when they have this injury it would be even more impossible.
They may return to play after a few weeks of the season starting, but the risk of a relapse is very high because usually players who often experience injuries will very quickly return to the treatment room when forced to play too much. Winning the Europa League is very unlikely to be achieved if Manchester United loses key players in the Big Match because they will lose their balance and ability to compete with other strong teams.
Money is always an unsolvable problem because as long as it generates more money, there will definitely be many ways that will be done, including changing the competition format like this. But on the other hand, regardless of what the real intention is, of course we also have to see the other side where we cannot exploit players to continue to be used as cash cows because in the end they also have a saturation point that is constrained in the professionalism of the work that keeps them going apart from their love for football. Don't let this format benefit the organizers and harm the players because of fatigue due to a fairly tight schedule.
In addition, now we cannot protest the existing decision because in any case the decision made has been agreed upon together and the organizers, clubs, players and everything related already understand the consequences that will occur later.
To be fair when teams are offered more money with a new system, they are likely to accept that. The entire football world runs on money, meaning that if they play a few games more than they used to, and that means more money from TV rights and ticket sales, they will be very happy about it, plus that also means if teams are making more money, they are going to be able to afford to pay players more as well. In addition, now we cannot protest the existing decision because in any case the decision made has been agreed upon together and the organizers, clubs, players and everything related already understand the consequences that will occur later.
Sometimes you just can't depend on inflation and increasing prices to make more money, sometimes you just need to increase the product count, which means more games for football and that's what they did.
I always suggested that every league should have AT LEAST 20 teams, some have 18, that's wrong, adding some more teams to make it 20 means 19 games in for a season, instead of 17, that extra two games, along with extra 2 here, would mean 4 more games, all tv rights, all merch, all tickets, basically meaning at least a few more million dollars for teams.
As I said earlier, I don't even tend to care whether their goal is money or not because ultimately what I want to highlight in this case is the durability issue of the players so if those who are aiming for money as an attraction in this case I don't want to comment much because they have the authority just don't let the players feel exploited later especially with so many matches in the near future.
With so many matches indirectly their performance is also forsired which could make the vulnerability to injury even greater so don't let the organizers only want money without caring about the comfort of the players. because if something like that then actually it will tarnish the fairplay itself.
The number of teams competing will increase from 32 to 36, meaning there will be 189 matches instead of 125, and the group stage will be replaced by a league phase - otherwise known as the "Swiss model".
There's an extra 64 matches in the Champions League and this will also affect the Europa League and other competitions below it so I think regardless of whether it's for money or other reasons I just hope that the players don't feel annoyed and uncomfortable with the new format.
Injury to the squad is definitely what no one ever wants in their squad and with the amount of players that are injured, it will be hard seeing Manchester united cope especially as it concerns these youngster's who are the core heart of this Manchester united team.

The young players who are injured with a short recovery period I think can still make a good contribution to the Manchester United team next season. Because what can be very detrimental to the team is if the injured players have to recover for a long time and don't have more time to play next season, whether it's in the Europa League or in their own domestic league. So I think Manchester United can definitely cope with that very well when they go into next season even though they might not be able to dominate like other teams straight away. 
~~
The format of the next season game is one that we have not witnessed before and a lot of people will be anticipating to see how the game is going to farewell in that regard. Playing the game as a league match format and calculating total points of all teams irrespective of the group they fall into will give hope to all even though you’re in a group that is full of big teams. Just try your best not to conceive plenty goals and also fight for a draw in matches that you can’t win, at the end when all points and goal difference are being cumulated, you can just be lucky to be in the safer side of making it to the next round. It will really be a clash of titans, and it’ll be worth it for every match every team plays.
To be honest, what I like about the new format is that there will be a lot more games and we'll have more football. Obviously there will be opportunities for more teams and I like that, There are teams that don't manage to qualify even when they deserve it, I think football is changing for the better so that teams don't waste that great effort but sometimes that luck doesn't favour them and it costs them to qualify, That's a similar format to what we'll see in the next World Cup. It's something where we'll have more teams, more football, more enjoyment and therefore More bets.

Have bad news for Manchester United after several their player absent until several weeks later due pre season injured. Seems big problem for Erik ten Hag keep focus in domestic league or must improve their performance in Europe League until reach the final round.
The pre-season tour did not go perfectly for Manchester United, Ten Hag had to swallow a bitter pill after four of his players were injured, Rasmus Hojlund, Marcus Rashford, Leny Yoro and Antony. The injuries suffered by the four players will make it difficult for Ten Hag to formulate his strategy because they are his mainstay players in the main team. Manchester United dream of winning the UEL Trophy will be difficult to achieve if these players cannot return to the pitch at the right time. These players could relapse from their injuries if they are forced to play too much, a big dilemma is surrounding Ten Hag because if he fails to deliver a title for Manchester United, then his position will be threatened and the worst possibility is that he will be replaced in the middle of the season.The injuries that plagued Man United last season, it seems will still haunt them. One of the goals of playing friendly matches is to prepare the players' fitness but unfortunately Man United had to lose 2 of their main players due to injuries in that match. A misfortune that seems to deserve serious attention because if they are underestimated it could become another obstacle for them.
If you start the beginning of any competition in a good form that can also contribute to the outcome of the club's success in that season but if you start poorly, it might be hard to catch up with the rest teams.
Let's see what Ten Hag will do to manage the situation at hand because last season he was unable to manage such situation properly and we saw poor results for united due to injury.
Football is one game that the rules are seasonally changed to further improve the quality of the game so I'm not surprised that UEFA opted to have a new format in the UEFA Champions League and Europa League competitions but if you ask me, I think this particular change wasn't needed. Personally, I feel the old format that was last used last season was better and less complicating to understand how it works unlike the current one but the good thing about the new format that'll be used for the first time by next season is it allows more teams to have the chance of participating in the two European competitions and k think it's a good one for European football.
Here I agree about this, old format were doing impressive work and most of the fans and related peoples were happy with this as well, but now UEFA is looking for changes, and they are already announces about this with Champions League is going to be play on new format and UEFA Europa Cup is also having changes now we can give better argument about this after having end of the first season because right now things are not going as we can talk about this.But now we need to understand with new system we will have more teams and better things because with this their revenue system will be also increased, and they will be able to have strong because these changes are just because of having increased competitiveness and improvement in finances so now we have to wait for the start of the season and how these things will work.
I think, when there are new rules that change old rules it might also have a good purpose too, even though we don't understand it well yet because of course it takes time to understand or adjust. Because after all, if we understand it then of course we will also be able to adjust to the new rules that will be implemented next season. Thus, even though it is still difficult for us to abandon the old rules, because they have had good adjustments over a long time before.
Thus, I think it will not be a problem when new rules are implemented. After all, if for example there are many teams who don't agree, there will most likely be protests or something like wanting to use the old rules. But yes, because so far it still looks fine, it can be assumed that they also accept the new rules well.
