Apart from Manchester United, Tottenham, Porto and Roma, in my opinion, they should be considered as favorite teams next season. We realize that Ten Hag squad looks more dominant than all the other contestants. Maybe the European League will be Ten Hag main priority if in the course of next season they have difficulty finishing in the top four of the Premier League standings, the ticket to appear in the Champions League is a guarantee for Ten Hag to continue to maintain it. Meanwhile, the second qualifying round of Leg 1 of the Europa League will take place in the middle of the week, and there are several popular teams, such as Ajax, who are struggling to qualify for the next stage. It seems that Ajax has started to recover, after going through ups and downs in performance last season.
I personally wouldn't put any hopes on Manchester United, because they only have a good history in the past but in this era they are still having difficulty getting good results. After all,in the Erik ten Hag era over the last two seasons, the reality is that Manchester United failed in the Europa League and also failed in the Champions League. Thus, even though Manchester United got a Europa League ticket by winning the FA Cup trophy by beating Manchester City but still, for me, Manchester United does not have a good chance in the Europa League next season.
But indeed, I have seen or read many predictions that Manchester United is the team that seems to be the favorite to win the Europa League trophy next season. But I personally can't realize this, because of what factors make them really favorite Manchester United. Whether they are Manchester United fans, or maybe stuck with the big name and great history that Manchester United has.
Because after all, the fact is that Manchester United also had bad results last season and even, great teams like Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen also failed last season. Because after all, the European League really cannot be predicted with certainty, what kind of team will succeed in getting the trophy.
