The Manchester United coach may be regretting his decisions because Manchester United is making his reputation go to the dust. Today I would have taught that Manchester United would win this game without any issues but that's not the case. They did not dominate the match as they were supposed to and they have to take the match down the wire before they won
I think both Manchester United and Their present coach were better off before they meet as I like the way Ruud was handling the team and the way sporting were playing.

Icardi is out, Osimhen is out, Sallai wasn't registered, Barış Alper is out, Kaan Ayhan is out, Ismail Jakobs is out, and Abdulkerim was just back with injections, game starts and Sanchez goes out. After all that, we still managed to get 2-2 tie, I would say that's actually a good result when you look at it on paper. I mean of course the issue is that we were 2-1 winning the game and we could have won it all together, but because of last minute defensive scheme changes, and substitutions we ended up getting a tie, if Sara stayed and if Jelert stayed, and we would just take out Bats to get Efe instead, that would have caused us to have much better defense. With Ziyech just walking, and Bats being useless, we ended up getting a late goal, and barely got a tie, in fact they missed a few at the last minutes too.
Bilbao got the win and going towards finishing at first place, it is going to be quite tough for any team to do better than them. I believe Athletic Club has a chance to win the whole thing, I watched the game and I can tell you that they are looking like the best team in all of europa, don't think it would be all that weird, we could see them win it.
The fact that they only get players from one region, is amazing and definitely something that is respectable, however the way they are playing right now is like a global powerhouse and that's why I believe they might. Plus, who else plays better? Lazio? Frankfurt? Galatasaray? I do not think so, none of them looks remotely close to Athletic Club and that is why I believe they may win it all.

Luckily for Manchester United they were able to win this match in the end and the hero of today's victory was Rasmus Hojlund who scored two goals. Thanks to this victory, Manchester United managed to maintain its good performance in the Europa League without losing in 6 matches. Now United's position in the standings is in 6th place with 12 points.
AS Roma managed to win big and also with clean sheets 3-0 and also, AS Roma has very good dominance in this match. Because I think, Braga is also not a completely weak team and I think, Braga will still be able to provide resistance in this match. But anyway, the reality is that Braga could not make a good effort to get a chance to score in this match since the first half. But indeed, with results like this also once again I believe Ranieri is still able to make AS Roma rise, although it still takes time but at least they have a good chance over time. Although perhaps, it is difficult for AS Roma to finish in the top eight but at least, they will still manage to finish in the top 24 which will certainly make them qualify to continue to the knockout phase.
After 2 previous draws they finally got back to get points for the continuation of the league phase in the Europa League which of course this is a very good thing for Roma.Against Braga they looked more comfortable and played very solid so they were able to get an easy victory in this match. Although it is undeniable that there is still significant resistance because Braga plays more defensively but in the end Roma get their momentum in this match and indeed with the 3-back scheme it seems that now Ranieri is starting to be comfortable with maintaining momentum where he can place a 3-5-2 formation or change with 3-4-1-2 or 3-4-2-1 according to the needs he wants quite well organized. But indeed with this formation it seems that they also have to be careful because indeed the scheme of 5 midfielders will be quite good if they control the game just as it happened in this match but this scheme will seem not too suitable if they are actually pressed because with this scheme it will make blunders for themselves.
Tonight perhaps will determine if Manchester United have really improved under their new coach, because I can't see much of an improvement in this team. Manchester United is closer to the relegation zone than they are to the top of the table in their domestic league. If I'm not mistaken, it's almost the same position that their former manager left them, that's where they are still. The improvement that you guys are talking about is not just reflecting on the team. For sanity's sake, Manchester United should not lose tonight. Plezeñ will make this match a living hell for Manchester United. With their impressive performance in this competition this season, I fear for Manchester United because something inside of me is telling me that Manchester United fans will cry again tonight.
That's too early to judge or to determine, a new coach who have just came to manage the club for a month is not enough to determine whether the club is improved or not.
Even if the results lets say all win within a month after the new coach come, it does not mean that the club is improved under the new coach.
Still long way to go for Amorim to prove that United is not choosing the wrong man to manage the club.
There is no instant improvement, it will take time maybe a whole season then we can determine whether the club is improved or not.
Amorim as much as am concerned, he isn't the problem with Manchester United performance not having significant improvement since the departure of ETH, for it is until some of the existing players in tue club have been replaced with new signings into the squad I see no reason to question Amorim capacity with the club because he was doing great as a head coach with Sporting CP before taking the UTD job.
They cannot rush they need to know this season is lost for them and they need to rebuild their team for next season with some good transfers and sell the current players that arent giving much for the team and it was seen in the previous seasons. Amorim will get this team on track but that cannot happen over night
What I see clearly is the fact that if this is not sorted out before next season it will be a problem. I know Amorim is not stupid he has a plan to kick out some players by next year.

Honestly, it's a big win for Roma today. I didn't expect Roma to win this game with such ease, but they did. I expected Braga to give them a tough time, but as I thought, it didn’t happen. Roma really played well and deserved this great win with many goals. In fact, Roma should have scored more than this, but they were just not lucky enough to convert those great chances into goals.
Roma created over 16 shots on target and were only able to score three goals. As for Braga, they found it difficult to create even one shot on target. All Braga's chances were off target. Braga didn’t really play up to my expectations, especially their attackers.

If AS Roma loses the game today, I don’t think they will be able to face their fan because there is no way you will compare their performance with that of Braga. This is an opportunity for AS Roma to get some points, which they utilised the opportunity to let not lie for each other. Braga is a weak team, even though we know that this is the first game that they lost since the beginning of this season because out of the 6 games they played so far, they were able to win 2, lose 3, and draw 1. All their games that they were able to win were the games with small and weaker teams, so were you expecting AS Roma to lose such a game?
Club fans always expecting instant improvement, why? Fortunately for Amorim Manchester United managed to win 1:2 against Plzen tonight else he would have gotten all sort of criticism questioning his capability as Manchester United coach, which is too rushy a thing to do.
It is excessive if fans ask for instant improvement, the job needs a process especially since Amorin is new at Manchester United so there must be more adaptation, but this victory makes his fans happy.I had seen the chances in the second half for Manchester United 2.00 more but I doubted the fear of a draw and did not make a bet and now regret a little after knowing this team won the match in the 88th minute.
In other games we have the Manchester Derby this week.

The first half is over, and the match is still goalless.
Manchester United is still playing well in the match, they dominated the game and have more ball possession, attempts in goals and more hope and chances created than Viktoria Plzen, and based on how this game is goin, if Amorim can have little more coordination in United attack, they can win this match because they have the chance of winning the match.
While the score changes to Viktoria Plzen winning over Manchester United. Manchester United fans are too quick to celebrate when Amorim could have given Manchester United some wins.Manchester United is still playing well in the match, they dominated the game and have more ball possession, attempts in goals and more hope and chances created than Viktoria Plzen, and based on how this game is goin, if Amorim can have little more coordination in United attack, they can win this match because they have the chance of winning the match.
I'm not editing anymore, just adding here that Hojlund who came on as a substitute was the player who made the score change to 1-1.
Continue to press with good passing of the ball to open up opportunities to score goals. It looks like Manchester United can come back in this game.
If Manchester United should be struggling in the Premier League, i never expected same in the Europa. Seeing how they struggled to defeat Viktoria Plzen, i still don't see an upgrade in their performance. I don't understand the decision of the coach to mostly bench Højlund, this guy has really been impacting the team with the little chances given to him, he came on as substitute and scored both the equalizer and the winning goal, Rasmus Højlund really deserves the starting eleven.

The game just happened and Fernebahce lost the game. From the final results we all saw that that 69th minute red card contributed to the final result. Athletic Bilbao has once again proved their mastery of the game over Fernebahce. Let's look forward tomorrow's fixtures.
The red card meant nothing because Athletic Bilbao had created a 2-goal lead before Fenerbahce lost 1 player so after they only played with 10 men since the 69th minute, Fenerbahce found it increasingly difficult to face Bilbao and were unable to reply with even 1 goal.The next match will be held tonight, there are a total of 17 matches that will be played simultaneously, I decided to bet on only 3 matches, namely Roma, Manchester United and Porto with odds @3.47.

About today's fixtures, it's really going to be a tough one especially between Viktoria Plzen and Manchester United who sit at 13th and 12th position in the table with two wins and three draw each. Manchester United only leading the table with one goal difference. Staking on such games takes more critical analysis and places you at high risk.
In as much as the game would definitely be tough, I am of the opinion that Manchester United will claim the victory in order not to raise questions about their new coach after he has already lost two straight league games.
There were many flaws from the Manchester United players which was what aided them to concede a goal first. That first goal was clearly an act of negligence and undermining opponents capabilities. A double strike from Hojlund paved the way for Manchester United. Bruno Fernandez is such a brilliant player and Amad has been on top of his game recently. Antony is still a bag of mess and lacks shooting abilities. Thank God for Mazroui, maybe Manchester United could have drawn and Amorims appointment could have been shady.

Plzen is a weak club and if not for Onana mistake, I don't think that they would have been able to score any goal. This is a good result for Amorim and he should stay more focus on this league because he has an upper hand to win it, if the United can be consistent.
