Lyon played very well in the match, although Frankfurt was superior in terms of ball possession, but in terms of opportunities obtained by both teams, Lyon was superior and even though they were behind by one goal in the first half, it did not affect their performance, the factor of playing at home also increased the confidence of the players.
But apart from their victory, I am impressed with Lyon's overall performance in the two competitions they are playing, even though they are currently still plagued by problems, they can still perform well in the local league and in the European League competition.

You're right mate, we were supposed to see Manchester United leading in possession in that game but that wasn't happening and that got fans wondering if the team has really improved in anyway under Ruben Amorim because he is known for getting possession of his game even when in Sporting CP. To this end since we didn't get to see that in this game then it's obvious the players hasn't accustomed yet to his style and tactics. But the ultimate subject was that they took all three points in end, which would have been a different story if they had failed to.

Manchester United is currently one of the few teams undefeated in the Europa League. I don't think they are doing too badly in the Europa League. What is more important for them is the Premier League. They normally aim to be champions in the Premier League, but they have been far from it for a few seasons now. Their main goal is to finish this year in the best way possible. They aim to climb to the top and go to the Champions League. However, their current ranking is not suitable for this. Becoming champions in the Europa League is perhaps the shortest way to do this. That is why the Portuguese manager will give more importance to this league than necessary.

Of course, United is still struggling to pick form and I haven't see any good improvement yet, because they find it difficult to score more goals against Viktoria Plzen despite several chances that they had. It's just that their host is very weak, if not maybe, we might see a different thing entirely. However, a win is a win, be it a weak club or a strong club because they all qualified to this competition.

Overall, Manchester United's performance has not been that good, but since Amorim's arrival, there has been better progress in the current Manchester United team and the progress is going in a positive direction so if this can continue to be done, then over time I think Manchester United's performance will improve.

The victory over Viktoria Plzen was quite important for Manchester United regardless of what happened in the match, but this is a model for Amorim to be able to improve the team's mentality and make the team even better in the future.

Lyon vs Frankfurt.

This match was not as expected even though Frankfurt was able to score first in the early minutes of the first half, falling behind first, not long after Lyon was able to equalize to draw. Lyon appeared more dominant in the first half, they also had many opportunities and even 2 shots hit the goalpost. In the second half, not long after Lyon increased their lead by adding 2 goals scored by Fotana and Nuamah. While Frankfurt, they were only able to reduce the defeat by scoring 1 more goal by Marmoush. As a result, this match was won by Lyon with a score of 3-2. An interesting and quite tough match, unfortunately my prediction was wrong. Lyon is now in 4th place, while Frankfurt has dropped to 5th place
.

It was indeed with great difficulty even though the opponents they faced did not have equal strength, I will not praise Man United's performance even though they won against Viktoria Plzen, let's be realistic if Man United should have been able to win the match easily but in fact it did not happen, there are still many improvements that must be made by Amorim to be able to compete in the Europa League, for now Manchester United's performance is still not so good.

This victory still cannot be said to be satisfactory, because the rhythm of the game applied by Manchester United is still very slow, especially the passes in the back line are not clear, so that 1 goal occurred due to Onana blunder. Hopefully Hojlund can be comfortable with Amorim game system, maybe Amorim wants to make Hojlund like Gyokeres. Actually, there are many opportunities that United got but there are seeds of egoism emerging in Amad, trying to force himself to hold the ball even though ideally it could be passed to Bruno or Hojlund. Amad must be able to control himself because Amorim is still in the process of selecting players.

Manchester United won but it was actually a boring game from them. I will assume it was a fair game since they managed to get the victory. Although, I noticed improvements especially in their ball possession but they played sluggish game. They missed two goals towards the end of the game simply because of their sluggish game and wrong decision together with their selfishness. Just imagine them having three vs one chance and couldn't make it count  due to their indecisive. If there is no change of these lazy players, Amorin will hardly succeed building this Manchester team. The January transfer is not far, they need a significant flow out and drastic recruitment to build the team.

To be honest, it was not a very good match from Manchester United, in the first half the hosts attacked more, and at the beginning of the second half they even managed to score and only after that Manchester United woke up and started to play. Amorim's substitution worked, when he replaced Rashford with Geilund, actually his double will bring victory to Manchester United. I see that Amorim is having a hard time working with the players who are in the team now, and I think that in the winter we will see big changes.

What exactly Manchester United improved lol.

Viktoria Plzen market value is only 41 Million Euro while Manchester United market value is 854 Million Euro, 21 times higher than Viktoria Plzen. Manchester United even play with their best eleven, they should able to score at least 4 goals.

If they only won one goal difference, it means they're still struggling.

It is not easy to create consistency, Ruben Amorim must work hard every week. If Manchester United avoids the storm of player injuries, Ruben Amorim has the potential to push his team to achieve this season target. The adaptation process seems to be going smoothly, the players look happier with a different approach, and Hojlund is starting to show signs of his sharpness in the front line.

With an unbeaten run in the Europa League, Manchester United are now slowly starting to be considered again as a candidate to win the trophy. Indeed, there are still many things that Ruben Amorim must improve in the future, one of which is uniting the egos of key players. Victory over Viktoria Plzen is very important for Manchester United, because it will be valuable capital when facing Manchester City in the Premier League.

Yes, Manchester United have improved their game a lot, they won the Europa League match yesterday. By winning this Europa League match, United managed to win three consecutive Europa League matches. Viktoria Plzen is not a very strong team which is why Manchester United won this match very comfortably. One thing you have noticed is that Manchester United is doing well in UEFA Europa League but not doing well in English Premier League. Manchester United players need to perform more consistently and perform well in other big tournaments.

Manchester United have improved their game a lot, especially in the Europa League. We saw that they won 1/2 against Viktoria Plzen in the last match. The great performance of Manchester United's players at the moment means that they may be in a good position in the Europa League. So I think that the current coach who is leading Man United forward so well will be successful. Moreover, Manchester United have not lost a single match in the Europa League so far, in fact they are undefeated, currently they are in 7th position in the points table, of course they will try to play better in the next matches.

Every victory should be celebrated because victory means joy. There was a time when Manchester United were on the field and the talk of defeat was more than victory, but they are slowly trying to come out of that place. Most of the matches Manchester United have played in the Premier League and Europa League under the new manager have gone in Manchester United's favour. If you look at Manchester United's points table, you will see that Manchester United have moved to number six when they were not supposed to be in this position. 

Lazio is the number one team in the points table and the point difference between Manchester United and this number one team is 4. If the consistent performance of Manchester United, it will be seen that the gap of four points has been reduced by Manchester United. I still expect good things for Manchester, especially in the Europa League.

For goodness sake, Manchester United is a top top club with high expectations and the fans are eager to see them back to the to real soon. Personally, I have lowered my expectations so I don't get vexed game after game. Too many people faulted EtH saying he lost the dressing room when they should have called out these lads with high pay roles. Pathetic!

Manchester United won by luck yesterday and we can still see that some players in Manchester United don't deserve to be in the team, Manchester United players are not serious and I will say that some players did make Erik Ten Hag become a good coach in Manchester United, Look at Manchester United performance yesterday, the performance is poor and if not for the Hojlund that score the two goals yesterday Manchester United will lose the match Yesterday's.

Many players in the team are very selfish when it comes to assisting in scoring, players like Bruno Fernandes, Garnacho and Rashford these players are selfish when they are on the field and that affects the team to score goals, Ruben Amorim needs to do something about and with the news I hear about Manchester United planning to sell some players it will be very good if the team sell some players like the way Chelsea did and they are doing well now.

.
Manchester united now is at a phase where they will need to focus and make every game count as a win because loses can destabilize the whole process of building because it's been long that united experience anything like consistency and that's exactly what the coach needs to increase the moral of these boys to even start thinking of winning big games like derby matches or long term rivals like Liverpool and arsenal.

Yea, the teams you mentioned did well to have atleast win their match and bag the points yesterday but the fact is some of them were just lucky not necessarily that they deserve the winning, lazio is very much on fire, their performance is a topnotch for me, ordinarily I was not expecting them to beat Ajax even though they will, I thought that it would have been  just 2:1 in lazios favour at the end but they were able to win Ajax 1:3 thats a good one for Lazio, as for Amorim team I think a lot needed to be done by Amorim, Manchester United United are struggling that doesn't look nice for the newly hired manager, much is expected from Amorim, there match with pizen was all struggle, they managed to add 1 goal to their existing 1 in the 88th minutes in the match which made them to win, things don't have ro continue like this, they need a to be wining convincly, manchester united has to really improve, Amorim has to put more effort, we saw what he was doing in sporting cp before he came tp Manchester, he was doing great for them and with the recent underperformance of sporting cp, we can easily attribute it to the absence of Amorim, that being said, what now happening, I think he should put in effort and start doing exactly what he was hired for. though am optimistic that Amorim will perfect things to an extent in manchester united with time.

M.Borini have really change Lazio. The way they played, they way they attack in unit and even they way they regroup after losing the ball is facilitating. Honestly, I never expected Lazio to beat Ajax, not at Johan cruijff Arena. It not as if Lazio out played Ajax but one thing Lazio is doing well this season and it was exactly what they've done again is taking their chances. In fact Ajax seems more in control throughout the match, created more chances, had more shot on goal and even more of the possession but they couldn't get that win.

Another person that impressed me in this game is the Nigerian young man Fisayo Dele Bashiru who was earlier this week criticized by his manager that he needs to works more hard and improve. Giving a chance to start in this game and he made use of that chance and done a good work in that midfield definitely and also got a goal to his name. It was a good game for Lazio as they now sit top of the Europa league standing.
