Topic: UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season - page 50. (Read 28876 times)
This season in the UEFA Europa League competition, Italian Serie A club Lazio have been the most outstanding team as they're the only team to have won all their four games in the competition so far. As to leaders of the group stages table, do you think Lazio can go all the way and win the competition this season or do you think they're just lucky in their games to have won all? Atalanta are last winners of the competition and the first Italian team to win it, are we going to see another Italian club win the competition this season? Let me read your thoughts.
I think if the management had dared to take the stance to sack ten hag at the beginning of the season after their poor performance last season, of course maybe their situation would not have been as bad as it is now,
Is good they still allowed him to disgrace himself the way he did again this season because you no how people react to things, if they had taking that decision of sacking him that time and hiring this new coach people would have still been saying that if they had allowed ten hag he would have definitely change and possibly more than the new coach but this time those that was once talking about giving him more time were actually the ones encouraging his removal, so actually I love how the card played for him because it was a fair judgement, I understand that you are talking about the position Manchester United would have been on the premier League by now but there is enough time for Amorim. 
The top 4 target for Manchester United seems to be quite a challenge for Ruben Amorim. But I agree about building the mentality of the players that I now see Rashford, Hojlund, Garnacho need it. The game system that Erik Ten Hag implemented has changed many things and Amorim is now tasked with fixing not only the mentality but also the teamwork that until now still looks less solid. Ideally the top 4 is indeed to qualify for the Champions League but there are too many more worthy candidates so at least the top 6 is enough.
Amorim has had quite a bit of experience in Europe with Sporting Lisbon and he should be able to make an impact on Manchester United by improving the team's mentality, but we shouldn't expect too much because every new coach certainly needs time to adapt and I think the Manchester United team this season is the same, they won't be able to change significantly immediately, especially since the competition in the Europa League is always fierce, so for Manchester United this season I won't have high expectations.
His experience has not provided certainty regarding the title competition because we can see when he was still the Sporting Lisbon coach. But maybe with Amorim's presence at Manchester United it will be a little different and they have good players to compete for the title this season. The players' mentality needs to be fixed and the team must work hard to be more solid in facing the match.There is no need to target too far this season because the most important thing is that they can finish in the top four of the Premier League, which is more than enough, while the competition in the Europa League can be maximized and if they have the opportunity it will be much better.
A few interesting numbers there, but I don't think I agree with putting Manchester United behind Tottenham Hotspurs by so much. Manchester United is 1 point behind in the Premier League and the one thing that sets Tottenham Hotspurs apart could be the goal difference, but this doesn't much in my opinion. Manchester United does have the quality to improve their game and hence their position and Manchester United could be in front of them on the next game day when Tottenham loses their game against Manchester City. I don't know whether the odds would change then?
Because of experience level in such European tournaments, I would also put Manchester United in front of Tottenham when it comes to the odds. They are much more of a winner team compared to Tottenham at the end of the day. Of course today's look is also important. But the Red Devils has just got rid of Erik ten Hag and started a new era with Ruben Amorim. I'm keen on watching their next games.

For those who want to take the risk and pick a team, my pick would be Lazio. They have a perfect record in the Europa League and they are playing well in Serie A with 4 consecutive wins now. I think for the time being they are underestimated.
Lazio would also be a really good choice to bet on honestly. They are having a pretty good season not only in the Europa League but also the Serie A. Who knows maybe this is the season they will win something after years.
The process that Man United has gone through honestly is too long in finding a coach who is truly suitable, who can bring Man United to win the Premier League again but until now that figure has not been found, Man United's journey is still long and several players have been brought in at least they can have significant changes that can later bring changes to the Man United squad, in my opinion whoever the coach is if the selection of players is not right then it will be in vain.
The line of players who are already in the Manchester United team at this time are actually quite good so they only need to be polished with better tactics by their current coach so that they can get such satisfying results through the matches they play this season. In addition, I also hope that the current Manchester United coach can give the best to Manchester United through his abilities and experience so far in this ongoing season, both in the Premier League and in the Europa League because considering Manchester United which was so far behind when it was still coached by Ten Hag.
Amorim has had quite a bit of experience in Europe with Sporting Lisbon and he should be able to make an impact on Manchester United by improving the team's mentality, but we shouldn't expect too much because every new coach certainly needs time to adapt and I think the Manchester United team this season is the same, they won't be able to change significantly immediately, especially since the competition in the Europa League is always fierce, so for Manchester United this season I won't have high expectations.

Manchester United this season is even more chaotic in matches than last season. The players who have entered the squad are already very good. However, there is an important thing in making Manchester United perform better, namely that it depends on the coach how to arrange formations and tactics that suit the existing players. Ten Hag is actually very influential on the team but his efforts are in vain, I think Manchester United is looking for a coach who understands the team's current problems and shortcomings so that they can win the remaining matches in both the League and UCL.

Amorim has been successful as a coach of Sporting CP. It is true that Amorim is not an experienced coach. But he is talented. Amorim has dominated Liga Portugal with Sporting. And this is why Manchester United management has given Amorim the responsibility by sacking Ten Hag.
Amorim must try to stabilize Manchester United from the very beginning. Manchester United's squad has many internal problems. Manchester United does not have a stable match strategy. The bonding between the players is very weak.
Amorim must try to create a stable match strategy for Manchester United. We must create a friendly relationship with the players. If the coach's relationship with the players is not good, it is not possible to get good results from this squad. If Amorim is able to strengthen the bonding between the players of Manchester United, then only this season we will see stable performance of Manchester United.
Manchester United's new coach Ruben Amorim will not be easy to build the Manchester United team with their slump so far making the job much more difficult so I think there is no need for excessive expectations because no matter what Amorim certainly will not be able to instantly make significant changes to the performance of the Manchester United team in his first season.
So I think for Manchester United this season it will still be the same, they will not be too much to be favored especially in the Europa League which has quite fierce competition.
of course it will not be easy for Amroim to change the performance of the MU team, but at least there is something positive left by their interim coach Nistelrooy from the last few matches.So I think for Manchester United this season it will still be the same, they will not be too much to be favored especially in the Europa League which has quite fierce competition.
I am sure the players are starting to find their confidence from the results of the previous match, but it all depends on Amorim to build this team next.
it may seem difficult, but I hope it will not be a heavy burden for MU and Amorim. they are trying to make changes, hopefully it is good enough for them.
Whether they deliver or not, who knows after they changed the coach, but fact of the matter is that expectations should be somewhat limited. Manchester United is not the same club as it used to be when Sir Alex Ferguson did his job. They are in shambles right now and this is what they have to deal with.
These are two different era's if we must compare, there were certain football rules that were not in place as at the era of Ferguson but now such is in existence so it's really not something that we can say we can just compare, but it's of a fact Manchester United was in a very terrible state recently but runs vanetleroy did a nice job with them and hopes are that the new coach will continue in like manner.So I think for Manchester United this season it will still be the same, they will not be too much to be favored especially in the Europa League which has quite fierce competition.
There is only Lazio who has won all their matches in the Europa League. The Italian team achieved a significant success by winning all four matches. They currently have a great advantage to advance to the next round. They will probably finish in the top eight. Ajax and Galatasaray are other strong teams following them. There is an important team in the Europa League. Manchester United is in 15th place in the rankings. They have never played well and have not lost in four matches yet. This can be considered a success for them. They can advance to the next round by winning all their remaining matches.
This Europa League is going to be tough, especially after qualifying for the next round of the competition, Lazio is having a good performance and both Ajax and Galatasaray are also strong to the extent that no team can defeat them, playing against Galatasaray and Ajax is very tough and any opponents play against them need to score goals in the game because Ajax and Galatasaray know how to score goals in a match, so the opponents need to score goals and equalize against them, from the look of things Ajax and Galatasaray will reach the semi-final stage of Europa League.
Manchester United has not had a good result in this League, In the games they have played under Erik Ten Hag they didn't win the match and they also didn't lose the match, they are just ending the game draw and that makes them stand in a position where if they did not perform well in their next matches they will not qualify for the next stage of the League, Ruben Amorim need to prove to the team that he can do it by helping Manchester United to win their games in this League and help them to win the trophy.

Now after few days we will be first game for the Amorim which will be give how he is going to start his future and can he bring changes in fortune of this club we can't talk about his strategy because it's his first big assignment at big club which is surely needed more focus on all events instead of going for only Premier League because their performance in UEFA Europa League is also good so they can go good in this event which could be plus point for them.
I don't think Manchester United will be playing poorly for the first few games, they're still going to continue with the fire that they had with them under the interim manager. Amorim is going to suprise managers with his strategy as they're not yet familiar with them. It's only a few managers that have played with him more than once. Pep Guardiola is one of the manager but Amorim just beat him the last time that they met with a less quality team as he was coaching sporting back but he has Manchester United with quality players to work with in bringing them closer to trophies than they had in the last few seasons. Erik ten hang won them some trophies therefore Amorim has to do better.

Manchester United fans will certainly expect a lot from the new coach because so far Manchester United has often experienced defeat before Ten Hag was fired and taken over by Nistelrooy. Now Amorim must have greater pressure because he must try to adapt and must be able to bring Manchester United to the final in the Europa League this season. Indeed, for now the level of competition in the Europa League is still quite high to get to the final, but I have no doubts about the experience that Amorim has had while coaching Sporting Lisbon in the past.

There can be some momentum with the new coach, but I don't think it will carry over to their everyday job. There is only so much a new coach can do and if there is something, then it is to remind the talents that are already there to give their best. But other than than that, I don't know myself what I would do. What is your take on this?

Van Dijk being given a rest by Koeman
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c0mzj8lr9nlo.amp
Virgil van Dijk has been released from the Netherlands squad before their Nations League match against Bosnia-Herzegovina on Tuesday.
The Liverpool captain played the 90 minutes of his side's 4-0 victory against Hungary on Saturday which secured second place in Group C and a place in the Nations League quarter-finals in March.
Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong has also been released by manager Ronald Koeman after making his first international appearance in 13 months following a series of ankle injuries.
"For both Frenkie and Virgil it is better for them to leave the training camp at this moment," Koeman said.
"That decision was taken on medical grounds, with of course the interest of the players coming first."
Virgil van Dijk is a good player, and he is important to both country and club. Choosing to rest VVD might be due to potential injury concern. Such precaution is important, especially when managing key players whose absence could significantly affect their team. Similarly, the decision to release Frenkie de jong because he is just coming out of an injury recently shows that Ronald Koeman is a thoughtful coach and he prioritizes players long term fitness. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c0mzj8lr9nlo.amp
