UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[SUPERSAIAN]

I also think Manchester United are a team that has not been able to prove themselves in the English Premier League now but sometimes we feel that their team may have a manager problem, and sometimes we see that players who have left their team perform much better in other teams.

Manchester United has changed so many coaches, and their is no difference in Manchester United’s performance, so I don’t really think current Manchester United problem is only the coach, I will be blaming the player’s, but what am thinking is that maybe the players are having issues with the management, maybe they don’t want to play for the team, or they are just having problems with the management, but whenever a player leaves Manchester United, and they join another team, their is always improvement in their performance.

Am not really expecting anything from Amorim this season, but by next season, at least he should try and improve Manchester United’s performance, some United fans are already complaining about Amorim already, but I just think it’s kind of early, he should be given more time, and see how he will perform.

They have changed so many managers that if the manager was the problem it would have come out. I think the problem is the players and the team needs to change the main players on the other hand the management is the real problem because they can't solve these problems. It seems interesting that the players are doing well after leaving Manchester United.

The fans don't know who to blame and as usual they blame the manager in the easiest way.

Rangers are unlikely to meet Manchester United in the next round or the next round of the Europa League this season because Rangers may not be able to beat Athletic Club in two legs in the quarter-finals of the Europa League this season. So I do not even predict Manchester United to meet Rangers in the next round because Athletic Club has more potential to qualify for the next round and meet Manchester United if Manchester United are able to beat Lyon in two legs in the quarter-finals this time.

How do you know Rangers won't beat Athletic Club? The matches don't start yet, there is still a chance that Rangers to eliminate Athletic Club. Even if Athletic Club looks stronger, Rangers can't be underestimated. When they defeated Fenerbahce, it is surely a strong sign that Rangers has a big motivation to reach the final round again. Even they will meet Man United in the next round, I think we can't judge they have no chance to defeat Man United. It is Europa league, there is always an opportunity for a surprise.

[Slow death]

By the way, the Europa League finale is going to take place at San Mamés Stadium which is Athletic Bilbao's. This would also be some extra motivation for them honestly. 

Currently their opponent is Rangers. Nothing surprising I'm expecting. This is easier than beating Roma. After, Lyon or Manchester United... I think no matter which one comes, Athletic Bilbao can still be victorious. Even for the finale, my favourite is them.

I agree that they are a strong team, but in this competition there are still very strong teams such as Manchester United, Tottenham and Lazio. It is true that Manchester United did not perform well in the Premier League, but the new coach is improving the team and in the Europa League even with poor performances in the Premier League, they continued to perform well in this competition and I believe that Manchester United will have a greater chance of being champions.

Strangely, but in 2022 Rangers were already in the Europa League final... And it's even more strange that they played against Eintracht, who were the winners... It seems to me that history could easily repeat itself this season... But this we will see a little later... I only wrote that Man U is not the main contender to play in the final... Of course in football there are often surprises, as you rightly gave the example of the early red card... But I think Lazio, Bilbao, Eintracht or Rangers have the same chance of making the final...

From a certain point on in these competitions I think some of the qualities that are important to get through the group stage or now league stage become less important. A great playing team has a harder time very often to beat a weaker team in the final than in the group stage. I think it is because mentally those underdog teams can pull off things they haven't even been aware of themselves.

Frankfurt beat Barcelona in 2022, but it has to be considered that Barcelona was not the same anymore. Still the Rangers found their way into the final and forced Frankfurt to go into the deciding penalties. It was an equal performance from both teams and nobody expected it.

If you didn't bring this up again now, I would have forgotten about it and it reminds me of this specialty that from the quarterfinals on, all teams have more equal chances because of this mental power phenomenon.

It can be well observed at World Cups when big nations play against small nations and it should usually end like 5-0, but it doesn't.

Honestly, people don't rate teams from the Scottish league when it comes to European competitions. The Spanish sides usually have an upper edge even when the media tries to hype up the English sides most of the time.

I think it will be an easy one for Bilbao until maybe the next round. We shall see.

So you believe that Rangers a weak team is part of your favorite club to be in the finals, excluding United who the bookmakers has made to be the favorite. I wouldn't say anything until United prove their weaknesses, when they fail to qualify to the semifinals. However, United is still my favorite and I am watching what will happen next. Finger cross.

Rangers is not a really strong team, although they have been able to get to this stage of the Europa League this season,  their game were filled with some not very brilliant performances,  they are hi experienced in the europa such that they have made it to the finals at some point but the problem still revolves around the fact that this season isn't like that season where they made it to the finals as they have even tougher contenders,  United is very likely to be putting their all into this game because it's more likely their only chance of winning a trophy this season as so if they get a reason to meet, they may not give Rangers that chance to even get a draw so Manchester United as a favourite is quite a food option but keeping an open mind regardless would be a much better option to explore.

[Franctoshi]

Everyone has their own favorite and I don't think Rangers is a weak team like you said because if they where..., they wouldn't have gotten to the quarter finals, so reaching this stage means they did well and just like you said Manchester united is your favorite and the bookmaker has also chosen them as the favorite but you should also know that there are people who sees Manchester united as a weak team too but they are not so let's wait and see what will happen and me personally I don't believe Lyon will beat Manchester united talk more of qualifying.

They deserve to be commendable seeing them reach this stage of the competition it isn't easy and if they weren't doing well, then we wouldn't have them still remain in the competition at the moment and their efforts in this competition is seen, They're one of the teams to watch out for,  potentially a club that will lift the trophy.

Rangers are one of the most dangerous teams this year in my opinion. It would be a big mistake to see them as weak. Of course, we can't say they are the best teams in Europe, but I am sure they will challenge Bilbao, I think they are a much stronger team than Roma. If they prepare well for the match, we can see a surprise result.
I think every match is risky now and it will be very difficult to determine the team that will win in every match. The team that makes mistakes loses, that's all

Rangers are one of the weaker teams in the tournament in my opinion. The best thing they do is to be fast and that's it. They don't control the game and they try to win the game with counterattacks. Sometimes they succeed but only sometimes. Rangers would have performed very badly at home against Fenerbahce. If you are a team with good defenders and a good passing game, you have a good chance against Rangers. Athletic Bilbao are playing with extra motivation in the tournament this season. I don't think they will struggle against Rangers and they will go through the round very easily.

Europa League always prove difficult to predict when it gets to this level because most times, it will be very difficult to know the strength of the clubs. This is because it could be an average club in good form or a big club in a poor form meeting each other. This is where it becomes so difficult to predict the outcome. But if I were Manchester United manager, I will not miss this.

Manchester United should not be underestimated, because Manchester United is a big team with experienced players. So even though Manchester United's performance is not as good as before, Amorim's team is still worth watching out for. In addition, Lyon is also a strong team, so I'm not surprised why many people prefer Lyon over Manchester United in this match. Because if we look at Lyon's achievements in the European league or in its domestic league, I think when compared to Manchester United, Lyon is superior. But even so, if we favor Lyon too much and underestimate Manchester United, I think that is also not right. So the point is we have to be more careful in making predictions in this match. Maybe it would be better if we made that prediction when 1 day before the match. Because I think it would be much more accurate.

Manchester United and Tottenham are the only English teams still contesting in the Europa league this season. For me Tottenham is a doubt to progress to the semi finals while Manchester United show some positives when they will face Lyon. I have a bit of confidence in United to progress to semi finals even if they won’t win but Tottenham is a huge doubt.

And what would you say about Galatasay strength relevant to their playing in Europa League? Sure the five score difference in position between them and Manchester United leaves very little hope on their win but at the national level Galatasay has already gave a good account of itself and would probably have the league title before the actual championship ending. The team has very prominent players ^{Victor Osimhen is one of them} who are capable to change the outcome of any match and this cannot be disregarded either.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Of course, it looks like the attacker are finding the right momentum currently. They both scored in their last EPL match which is a sign of improvement in them. I am always worried about United attacking force due to the incapacity of scoring goals, but it seems things are changing gradually. If the attackers can do their work effectively and keep the goals coming, stopping Lyon from scoring wouldn't be a problem.

Lyon are also not very good in Ligue 1 so it will not be that difficult to beat, what Manchester United need to do is find a weak point and they need to score early goals to put pressure on Lyon. But the problem is as you said because Manchester United's front line is not showing its best quality at all so it is much more difficult for them to score early goals.

Not to mention talking about the defense which may not be fully able to play the core players and still looks so struggling to perform consistently so the space for Lyon to score early goals is also quite open.

Exactly, it's very difficult to know the clubs that will advance to the finals. This is why no club should be underestimated at this stage. However, United should take this match very serious and make sure that they can achieve victory and advance to the semifinals.

Yep. United has bounced back nicely of late and they will risk everything to play in the quarter-finals Europa League.
Some people call Lyon a mediocre team, but a reminder that Rayan Cherki will be Lyon's main man in the Europa League quarter-final against Manchester United. He has all the talent and technical ability to succeed. Best young talent from France in my opinion
Also, playing at home in the first leg will be an advantage for Lyon.

Manchester United should not be underestimated, because Manchester United is a big team with experienced players.

Maybe it would be better if we made that prediction when 1 day before the match. Because I think it would be much more accurate.

Of course, if Lyon underestimates Manchester United in the quarter-final match later, it will be a big mistake for Lyon. Although favored in the match, especially playing in front of their own supporters, Manchester United's performance in the European league so far has been very good, even though they are unbeaten despite being bad in the domestic league. However, Amorim after slumping in the domestic league, the European league will be their priority.

In addition, when Manchester United eliminated Real Sociedad from the last 16 of the Europa League, it was very impressive with a large aggregate of 5-2. Of course, defeating Real Sociedad with a landslide score has indirectly increased the confidence of Manchester United players to face Lyon.

Yes, that's right. The most measurable prediction is not now but two or one day before the match because we also know that Manchester United before facing Lyon will face a tough match, namely facing Nottingham Forest and Man City.

Rangers and Manchester United can be perceived as a weak team in their own domestic league this season,  coming to Europa league, you can't take them as a weak team because they are doing far better than when you have them in their domestic leagues. And by the way all eyes are on, to lift the Europa league title.

However, it is terrible that Manchester United are not delivering in match as expected of them. They can let you down in a match at any given chance they find. That's why football fans are having double mind of them lifting the Europa League title.

When I was involved much in gambling, I only make predictions few hours to the match, and I will not even stake it until the final line up is out. By then I will know which player is available for the match, the venue, the environment condition and more. And when a sincere prediction at this time, it will be easy to win.
I just checked the pull result above and Manchester United is leading. Was that intentional or what, I mean with the present condition of Manchester United?

Manchester United and Tottenham are the only English teams still contesting in the Europa league this season. For me Tottenham is a doubt to progress to the semi finals while Manchester United show some positives when they will face Lyon. I have a bit of confidence in United to progress to semi finals even if they won’t win but Tottenham is a huge doubt.

Looking at the squad conditions, Manchester United is actually more doubtful than Tottenham, because Ruben Amorim squad is currently hit by a fairly severe injury storm. This will certainly affect their chances of winning the trophy, and I think they are a bit lucky to face Lyon in the quarter finals. In contrast, Tottenham will face a slightly tougher opponent, Eintracht Frankfurt. However, overall, many parties still consider both teams as the main title contenders due to their experience, and also because they come from the Premier League, which is known to be more competitive.

Lyon has beaten Frankfurt in the Europa League. i don't if at this stage I would estimate Lyon to be slightly weaker than Frankfurt. Both teams will be immensely led by their hunger to win that title and both teams have a certain level of quality within their squads. That is why I disagree that Manchester United got a bit lucky here. It doesn't matter whether it is Frankfurt or Lyon.

The injuries are a fairly big deal for Manchester United. At the moment it is 10 players in total that are not available. Some of them will be injured for the whole season, some are suspended I think and most of them will certainly miss the Europa League games. That could be a big advantage for Lyon as Amorim has rarely any options to change something during the game and to bring on some quality players according to whatever is needed in those games.
