It sounds non sense to talk about United dominating the Europa League. They fought against so many easy opponents during the qualifier stage. They have not yet faced strong clubs.

They're second most favorite to win the Europa League trophy. However, this only reminds me of last season's narrative. They being placed at the top of club to win europa league, but failed during the play off stage. I'm only thinking same narrative to happen for the twice.

You are right. Manchester United have won three matches in the Europa League. Manchester United have failed to win against Fenerbahce, Porto and Twente. If Manchester United want to win the Europa League title, then it is very important to play better. If they perform like this, Manchester United will be eliminated in the knockout round.

This season, I do not think that it will be possible for Manchester United to win the Europa League title. Manchester United's performance in both the Premier League and the Europa League is irregular. There are teams more worthy than Manchester United to win the Europa League title.


Quote
They beat Arsenal at FA cup, but it's not guaranteed us if they're back to their best form.

Manchester United won against Arsenal in the FA Cup match. But was Manchester United's performance good? I would say that Manchester United were very lucky because they were able to beat Arsenal in the FA Cup match. The performance of United players was quite poor throughout the match.

This is indeed of a truth, some teams can be doing well in their domestic league and fail to replicate same form in European competitions.
While I don't really rate Manchester United among the Europa League title contenders from the fact that in the era of Ten Hag no matter how well they perform in the UEFA competition they are always disappointing.  But since they have a new manager now, I won't totally write them off if they can go pass the group stages.

Manchester United team may be able to qualify for the next round from the top 8 of the Europa League table. So far, Manchester United's performance in the Europa League has been stable. Manchester United team has won three out of 6 matches and drawn three.

However, I don't think Manchester United is capable of dominating the Europa League. I have seen Manchester United's performance in the Europa League. I don't see a very strong performance. Lazio and Athletic Club's performance is much stronger than United. I don't think Manchester United is a favorite to win the Europa League.

The thing is they might not been able to dominate but as long as they can be able to keep themselves one way or the other and maybe get to the final then I did say they will win because while they are highly inconsistent, in matches where they are serious they often come out as the best team or at least gives grand performance, and if they can make it to the final that will not be any difference.
There are still many weaknesses that Manchester United may have and maybe the players need to put their egos aside to get a good game. Getting to the final may be difficult but there is a way if they can play more collectively because I saw when they held Arsenal to a draw in the FA Cup and won the game on penalties which was a very extraordinary achievement. The most important thing is that every player does not make mistakes and maybe has to avoid a red card like Diogo Dalot so they can keep fighting for the win. If they can play more consistently then there is a way they can achieve it and it really depends on how Amorim can motivate his players to perform more consistently.
We expect Manchester United as much as we do now but we didn't a few days ago. From the day another manager took over as manager of Manchester United, we started dreaming about Manchester United again. If the previous manager was still in charge of Manchester United, I would have at least never said that Manchester United would play the final or the semi-final of the European League. Now the performance of this team seems clear to me so if they can plan well and move forward then it will not be difficult for them to qualify for the finals. The team still has weaknesses but these weaknesses cannot be highlighted because when their weaknesses are clear the opponent will exploit those weaknesses to try to win the match against them. I still have good hopes for Manchester United that they will at least qualify for the semi-finals or finals of the Europa League.

The Europa League is very different from the Premier League. There are teams that are doing badly in the domestic leagues but are doing very well in the Europa League. There are also cases of teams that are doing well in domestic competitions but are doing badly in the Europa League. In my opinion, I think it will be very difficult for Manchester United to become champions. Manchester United's next game in the Europa League will be against a difficult team and we will see if Manchester United can win.
That is the reality that is happening right now. The reason is, not all teams are able to provide their best performance in all the competitions they participate in. Therefore, many football teams prefer to focus on just one competition. Likewise with Manchester United, in the Premier League Manchester United doesn't seem to have high hopes of getting into the top 4 rankings. So it is not surprising, for example, that the Europa League is another alternative for Manchester United to be able to maximize the results they can get this season. Because if, for example, Manchester United becomes champion in the European league, of course Manchester United will definitely get a ticket to play in the Champions League.

Then talking about the next match that Manchester United will play in the European league, I also assume that the team that Manchester United will face is not a weak team, because that team is Rangers. Meanwhile, Rangers in their domestic league are currently in second place. So it is certain that with this, Rangers will definitely be quite a difficult opponent for Manchester United. But even so, Manchester United still has greater winning potential than Rangers. Because if you look at the depth of the squad, it is clear that Manchester United is superior to Rangers. Therefore, Manchester United has quite a big potential for victory in this match. So I think betting on Manchester United in this match might be very appropriate.

I am not seeing United form that poor as you mentioned it anymore, because they were able to draw Liverpool in EPL, and they have also draw their FA Cup match with Arsenal today. United scored first but after Dalot got a red card, they couldn't put themselves together instantly which caused the equalizer. If United can continue improving their performance, I believe that they will go far in Europa League.
That could indeed be very possible for Manchester United in the Europa League this season because from the way they faced strong teams like Liverpool and also Arsenal in the FA Cup yesterday, of course there has been a little progress made by Manchester United. But for now I hope Amorim still wants to fix the Manchester United team more perfectly so that Manchester United can continue to go far in every competition they face this season, be it in the FA Cup or in the Premier League and in the Europa League too.

You are not far from the truth and i keep on asking myself what could be the possible reason that some team are doing well in their domestic league but will not do well in the Europa league vice versa and then i was thinking maybe they are familiar with the domestic league because they play more often there and perhaps they should understand some team play tactics but i do not know the opposite side of it. I think you have forgotten what Manchester United is good at and i will remind you in this post, if you have watched Manchester United recent match with big team then you will know that they do not joke with big teams whether they are inform or not, i believe you watch them against Liverpool and some others and right now i can say Manchester United has improved to some extent unlike before.

I also have doubts about United's current performance to be able to compete for trophies. But this may be the only thing Amorim can try for the Europa League. While in the Premier League, Amorim has enough games to improve their position in the standings. Everything should start from now and get better until the end of the season. While the Europa League may indeed be a priority because it may be their only way to the Champions League.
One of the very best decisions made by Manchester United board. Appointing the former Sporting CP headcoach and bringing him to the theater of dreams to perform his exact impressive tasks at Sporting. Ruben Amorim have many tasks to accomplish this season. Qualifying for the UEFA Champions League spot and also bringing atleast a trophy to Old Trafford is main objective for Ruben Amorim. He will always keep hope alive for his outstanding squad. Everything amazes me because watching the tremendous performance of Manchester United against elite teams, and that against mediocre teams, it's just so different energy and atmosphere for the Red Devils. Manchester United headcoach, Ruben Amorim doesn't mellow down when he sense a title. He's more ambitious and never contended with beating average teams. He always goes further to press momentum on the top teams. He's enemy number one for every elite team he faces in EPL and outside the league.

The problem is that sometimes Manchester United does not always perform well, they often make mistakes that cause them to lose, even though Manchester United is an elite Premier League club, but that does not guarantee that they can win the Europa League title because the competition in the Europa League is almost as tight as the Champions League, in the Premier League also Man United's performance is doubtful, so I doubt they can reach the final, I think maybe they will only survive in the quarter-finals or at least the semifinals.
That the big problem problem with Manchester ever since Ruben Amorim took over, they lack consistency in their play and result. Imagine if Manchester United can get a draw at Anfield, win at Emirate, a win at Ethihad but then they will lose at home to Bournemouth, lose to wolves who are battling in the relegation zone. With such inconsistency I don’t think they can win the Europa league, there are a lot of good team in the Europa league who can do you damage easily, I don’t see Manchester United at that level yet. I know for sure Amorim will recruit new players this January but I still doubt if that will change anything this season. First he needs to get the consistency right.

Manchester United will face Rangers, the opponent below them in the rankings. I think this match will be very entertaining. Manchester United is the favorite because they will be playing in England and have a higher quality squad. However, as you said, sometimes surprising results can happen in Europa League matches. Rangers are a quality team and it wouldn't be surprising if they win against Manchester United.

For this season, Man United seems to have to lower their expectations a little to be able to win the UEFA Europa League trophy. However, even so, Man United must be able to maximize every opportunity they get. Heading into the last 16 is very wide open, because they are in a pretty good position right now, and maybe the challenge will be when they are already in the last 16, because they will face a tough team.

And if we talk about the Premier League, they are really in a pretty tough position, even though in the previous match they managed to get a draw when facing the top of the standings, Liverpool. However, Man United has lost a lot of points which has made their position even worse.

Manchester United started performing a bit well this new year when we saw their game against Liverpool in the Premier League that they ended on a draw and also the draw that they had against Arsenal yesterday in the FA Cup. which in the Europa League, they are in a good position even though at first they found it very hard to even win a game considering the way their performances are now with consistency, then they might imagine themselves as the winners of the Europa League this season, but if not, I don’t think even if they made it to the round of 16, they will be able to make it to the final.

Liverpool have been successful in most of the matches they have played so far this season, but despite their best efforts, they could not win against Manchester United. Since Liverpool could not win against Manchester United, there is no chance to say that Liverpool performed poorly in that match. Liverpool have performed as well as Manchester United have, making the competition tough but neither team has won against the other. If Manchester United can compete hard with the best-placed teams in the Premier League and Champions League, they should also compete hard with their Europa League rivals and earn full points. They don't have too many matches left in their hands to secure the next round of the Europa League and that is only possible with a good performance.
A big surprise that Liverpool was not able to defeated Manchester United, imagine the all Liverpool that’s claimed the top of the standings wot highest points; but definitely fall down in the hand of the a weak teams that are not been performing well all this while but such people by leading their last match against strong team to a draw game. If to say this how Manchester United started their performances with a wonderful journey they could be in a  3rd or second position by now.
I will say I saw that result coming because Manchester United has an attitude of playing better when they compete against top premier league teams, the managers including the past ones will always prepare well for this games so I expected a replica of that level of performance against Liverpool and they did as I expected which also gives me doubt Liverpool will be able to maintain their lead till the end of the season. They might be looking so tough but in reality they are not so hard to defeat.

Indeed, Manchester United are still doubtful to compete for the Europa League trophy, but considering the situation and challenges they will face in the future, the Europa League is the last hope for Manchester United to get a ticket to the Champions League next season. In my opinion, Ruben Amorim must maintain his team performance like when they faced Arsenal and Liverpool, if that can be done, we will most likely see Manchester United in the Europa League final this season. Currently The Red Devils are ranked 13th in the Premier League standings, 13 points behind Chelsea who are ranked fourth in the standings, I think there is no more hope of getting a Champions League ticket through that route. Now the Europa League is clearly Manchester United priority.

Rangers is not as tough like you put it, because they are one point behind Manchester United who is seventh on the table and Rangers is 8th on the table. United is always lucky with their Europa matches and I believe that same luck will favor them, because they are improving their performance. United is still unbeaten in Europa despite the ugly situation they are facing, and I dont think that Rangers can break that record.

If they take advantage of the transfer window now, there is a possibility that it can be done because even though the performance of his players looks so bad, they play well in the Europa League. In the Premier League, it does look more difficult for Manchester United because they have struggled to get a win after the last time they beat Manchester City. But some efforts have been made and now they prioritize looking for some players needed to support Amorim's strategy. When it goes well, it is not impossible that the Europa League trophy is a big target that they will fight for.

If Amorim is indeed targeting the Europa League trophy, it is only right that they update their squad. Because we have seen how Amorim plays United players in every match some are suitable and can carry out the strategy that Amorim expects and some are not. United will release some players in the winter transfer market. And others may be there at the end of the season.
Bringing in some players is an option that United must do, if they don't make changes, I think Amorim will have difficulty if they have to target the Europa League Trophy.
Manchester United still unable to playing stable i think the target for Europa League trophy is too far for them but Amorim will give his best for Manchester United in this competition but for the trophy i think it's too early for them and i think rather than thinking about Europa League trophy i think Amorim should be more focus to improved Manchester United position on Premier league

Speaking new players i am sure Amorim will buy some players this January but first of all probably Manchester United will sell the players who didn't good contribution for this team and currently Manchester United can occupy 7th place and they have 12 points from 6 matches with unbeated record and in my opinion Manchester United will be advances to the next round but they won't be able to win Europa League trophy

I also have doubts about United's current performance to be able to compete for trophies. But this may be the only thing Amorim can try for the Europa League. While in the Premier League, Amorim has enough games to improve their position in the standings. Everything should start from now and get better until the end of the season.

The opportunity to advance to the last 16 is still open for Manchester United, but of course to be able to win the title will be quite difficult, especially since they have performed inconsistently in every match. However, if we look at Manchester United's last 2 matches, where in those matches Man United faced tough opponents, namely Liverpool and Arsenal. However, surprisingly in the Premier League, they were able to hold Liverpool to a draw. And in the FA Cup Man United was also able to win over Arsenal on penalties with a score of 1-1 (penalties: 5-3), and moreover in that match Man United only played with 10 men for quite a long time, precisely D. Dalot had to get a red card in the 61st minute which made Man United have to end the second half with 10 players, and so on in the two additional rounds.

Amorin seems to have found a new formula that is suitable to be applied to his players, by successfully drawing and even winning when facing big clubs, of course this shows a fairly positive change for Man United in the future.
