UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[Africolo]

I don't know if anyone is doubting Manchester united performance or capabilities on winning their tie against Olympic Lyon it's just that if you watch and notice the redeem of how Manchester united have been throughout the entire season then you would know that you would definitely think twice when playing them especially seeing how their league performance have been although their Europa league is quite different though.

On a second thought, why doubt Manchester United when it comes to the Europa League? It's fine if we understand the rough inconsistent performance of the Red Devils in the English Premier League but when it comes to Europa trophy, I don't think the Red Devils would be ready to let go just like that. You and me understand the equation behind Manchester United urging and persuading to win the Europa League title.

Ruben Amorim will be given all the time he needs because he's new to the system. He has made quite few mistakes and tend to correct them when the time is right for the club. Amorim is ambitious coach, a type of coach that wouldn't become reluctant in one's position, he will make movement for hanging structures for the club he's serving as active manager.

I'm very sure that Man United is possible to beat Lyon. Man United performed well in UEL, they have enough players to play against Lyon. It is true that there are some injured players, but I think it won't be a problem for Amorim. Lyon is also not a very big team in Ligue 1, Man United has enough quality players to eliminate Lyon. Even if it will be a tough match, Amorim should have the way to deal with Lyon tactics. For the international match, Amorim looks better during he is managing Man United. So, I'm confident about Man United defeating Lyon.

Of course, many doubt Manchester United's ability this season, and perhaps many bettors avoid betting on their matches. Although in the Europa League Manchester United managed to show a different performance from the Premier League, there will still be those who hesitate to rely on them. However, regarding the match against Lyon, even though they have to struggle, the Red Devils will most likely succeed in defeating the Ligue 1 representative.

I have the confidence that Manchester United will scale through this stage of the Europa league by defeating Lyon both home and away. Lyon is still going through a tough time now while Manchester United is almost out of their issues which gives them the advantage in that match. Lyon was defeated yesterday by Strasbourg by 4:2 which was a big surprise to many people who expected Lyon to win. Manchester United will take advantage of the situation to progress to the next stage of the Europa and hope they are able to defeat their next opponent.

Looking at the results of the last match when Lyon lost to Strasbourg then Manchester United should be able to beat Lyon but it is not certain that this can be done by Manchester United. I still see the chance of a draw in this match and if one of them wins I will choose Manchester United. Lyon did not show a good game at all against Strasbourg and this is a big worry when they face Manchester United who are much more dangerous in attack so if they are not prepared well it will make Lyon experience bad results again.

[Lidger]

I agree with you. It will not be easy for Manchester United to beat Lyon. In their last 5 matches they have only lost to PSG in Ligue 1. The first leg will be played in France. I think Lyon will not let United get a win. Of course Lyon will try hard to get a win as the host in the first leg because it will give them an advantage in the second leg. On the other hand United have also performed well in the last few matches even though they often get a draw. I favor Lyon or a draw for that match. It is difficult for United to get a win with their performance. Maybe they will get a win in the second leg when they play at Old Trafford.

Manchester United must work hard in the first leg and maybe they will not be so ambitious to implement the target of winning because Lyon has the advantage of playing at home. IF Manchester United is able to hold Lyon to a draw at home then when playing at Old Trafford it will be much more likely for Amorim's team to beat them. I consider a draw more because I am quite sure Amorim will try to instruct his team to play carefully and will not apply a full attacking strategy.

If the strategy works during the second leg, Manchester United has a much better chance of putting pressure on Lyon. The defense needs to be improved so that Lyon cannot score and that must be a strategy that can be implemented well by Manchester United when visiting Lyon's headquarters.

Lyon's home match is very important for Manchester United. Lyon can win their home match so in this match Manchester United will have to compete hard and try so that Manchester United win this match. If for some reason Manchester United fail to win this match then they must try to get at least one point. If Manchester United can draw in Lyon's home match, then Manchester United's home match will be easy for Manchester United, as a result of which Manchester United will have a good chance to advance easily by performing well in that match. Manchester United should certainly be ahead of Lyon in terms of performance but make no mistake that is the point. Manchester United can be seen making some common mistakes in some matches, if they make those common mistakes in the important matches of the European League, they may lose, so Manchester United should be careful in advance.

Lyon are playing their Ligue 1 games without their manager Fonseca. I assume you know about Fonseca's nine-month ban. It is valid only there. Not in the Europa League. Therefore I wouldn't be affected by that Strasbourg loss very much honestly.

They haven't been losing in the Europa League for 7 games. That's a pretty good record.    I don't think they will surrender easily against the Red Devils. I even think Lyon can advance to the semi finals in case they get a decent win home in the first leg.

Lyon might be tough when playing other clubs but I don't think that their toughness is a problem to United. Manchester United is a team that when they are serious to win an important match, they do put in their best to make sure that they achieve victory. EPL matches might not be important to Amorim because he is using it as an experiment to know what strategy fits the players on ground. That's why you see him changing players to play in different wings and positions. However, this is an important match which Amorim knows he needs to win. He will definitely use his best winning strategy and players.

The Fonesca ban is really going to affect Lyon in the league but many people have begin to actually think it will also impact their Europa League chances but I am of the believe that it will not affect them since they will have him on the touch line.

The game will have the first leg been played at Old Trafford which should be in Manchester United favour, but one thing I always do not like about playing first in European knockout matches is the fact that most of the time the team playing home matches in the second leg are usually at advantage, so if Lyon can have a good game at Old Trafford and not allow high deficit or even avoid loss they can do better in the home game and probably qualify

Amorim may be able to focus more on the Europa League, but every game will be important for him. That's because the poor performance in the Premier League is still his responsibility as a coach.
Facing Lyon, maybe everyone still thinks United is a strong team a few years ago. But I think, United also might not be easy to get a win.
Let's see how the quarter-finals will go. Facing Lyon, hopefully Amorim has the right strategy, as well as the players in their best condition.

There are still 10+ days until this game is played, so we have no idea what is going to happen. First of all, we need to make sure we know who is injured or tired or whatever, to know the team that will play, is like half of the betting. Because there are moments when one team looks a bit better, but then you do not realize one of the most important players is injured and won2t play. This is why it is always smarter to bet on these games just few hours before the game.

Usually about 6-7 hours before the game the squad is known and then you can gamble on it. These two teams are too close to each other to call, and there are games between today and then, so we need to wait and see who will be playing and who won't be playing.

Amorim is trying his best both in the premier league and in the Europa league but it is obvious that the premier league is quite unfortunate for him and I don't know  if I will say, it is because the premier league is strong or not but on the other hand the Europa is favoring him to the extent he has not loss any match  but just a draw, it is really impressive and a nice record too. Yes whenever Manchester united mean business whether they are playing the strongest club or not they will bring out there own Best and play to the fullest you can imagine what they played Arsenal when they don't have form, Arsenal escaped else they would have won arsenal that day.

This is the exact point that I am emphasizing on, most people are underating United because they did poorly in EPL but they forget that EPL is tough and all those clubs have been playing with each other for a long time now. Lyon is a different club entirely from the EPL clubs which may give United an edge over Lyon because the club with the best strategy and performance will win the match.

Amorim's efforts are definitely not enough, I mean that with the players he has now it will be very difficult to do this, if we talk about the Europa League, and in the Premier League it will be impossible to change anything. To make Manchester United a team that can be in the upper part of the table, you need to change everything, you need a good goalkeeper, you need top forwards and defenders. Too much work to make any predictions now. Manchester United should try to win the Europa League, if they succeed then Amorim will definitely get good funding for transfers in the summer.

So, I'm confident about Man United defeating Lyon.

Yes, you are right that Manchester United has more qualified and more expensive players than Lyon. But that cannot be a definite reference that Manchester United will win in this match against Lyon. Because as we know now, even though Manchester United has a lot of expensive players, in reality it is not able to make Manchester United have good performance. That is why if the prediction of this match is based on the depth of the squad, I think it will be a little less effective. Because the proof is that even though Lyon only has ordinary players, their performance is good. The proof is that in its domestic league Lyon is able to compete in the top 4. While Manchester United must fight in the top 15 in its domestic league. That is why I personally will not conclude specifically about the prediction for this match. Because in my personal opinion this match will be quite surprising for all of us. So the point is that Lyon could dominate the match or vice versa. So maybe the right thing we can do right now is just analyze the possibilities and narrow down our predictions. But if you want to be simpler, I think we should watch this match first, at least 7 minutes. Because with this, of course our predictions will be a little more accurate.

I can understand what you are saying, but I don't think it's something that they actually "perform" well, it's just that they are in a very competitive English League so they are struggling.
We also have to look at the whole thing, how they play, what kind of mentality they show and so on. I'm not underestimating, but when I look at all the things I usually see to predict a team, then I see Manchester United are indeed in trouble, so that's what ultimately makes them not find their best game. and also we can see from the last few seasons how they have performed.

What happened in the Premier League cannot be used as a reference because Amorim just came to handle Manchester United who are quite depressed so there is nothing we can judge from Amorim's performance for now.
And for priorities and targets of course Amorim and Manchester United will only focus on the Europa League this season because this is the only chance for them to win the title and also get a ticket to the Champion League next season.
Regarding the squad that is in Manchester United at this time, I think it is quite good, Amorim only needs to make a few changes and to be forced this season is enough for them to be able to compete to win the title.

All matches are important for Manchester Unite and not only the Europa League, although they have to pay attention to the Europa League because if they succeed in lifting the trophy, they will automatically qualify for champions league which they will never do through the Premier league this season. Despite this, they still have to take their Premier league matches seriously because there is no guarantee that they will win the Europa League.

Amorim have played many matches for Manchester United so it is proper to access him based on the outcome of those matches. He must not play a full season before we know how  great he is as a coach.

Manchester United have been able to hooked up with streak winning in the Europa League but I'm afraid we can't say the same for them in the English Premier League. The Red Devils have been scuffing this season with unknown stats to bounce back to astounding form. Ruben Amorim working hard enough to ensure he's making some piece for the growing condition of the club, he still need more time to settle and present himself worthy for the incoming goals he stand to accomplish for Manchester United.

The Europa League have been a major target for the club to lay their hands on since they're not having a good running in the EPL. Atleast the Red Devils can balance the scale if they're able to pull a win for themselves, always enabling themselves to come infront of big winnings. There's also something to know about Manchester United, they can zipped up means and be able to inculcate wide span of winnings.

The Europa League is the only competition Manchester United has any hope of winning silverware this season. They are in bad shape in the Premier League, sitting comfortably in 15th position on the league table. But they have done this before, Manchester won the Europa League with Erik ten hHag despite having a poor run in the Premier League that season. It is possible that Amorim can repeat history for Manchester United.

If Manchester United can do more better in the Europa League, am sure they can get the opportunity to win the competition. Because I see Manchester United are the tough club in the competition, because they have some good players that will help them win the title. If Amorim will just try to focus on the Europa League only, he can get the title because I didn't see any competition that Manchester united will win this season anymore if not the Europa League  title. if they make mistakes and they knockout them that is the ends for them this season, they will finish the season without a trophy. Let see there first game against Lyon, and see if they will be the favorite of qualifying to the next round, and if they can try definitely they will qualify because I think Lyon are not that strong this season, there performance is not that good enough that I can say they will defeat Manchester united in the match.

It's good news for Manchester United that there are not many big and experienced clubs in quarter finals, and they can move toward final match with not too big challenge. They only need to be a best version of themselves and play well to take the trophy but their general performances in this season so far are not too good. If they want to win the trophy, they have no option than suddenly improving themselves and have some good performances in remaining matches.

The Europa League have been a major target for the club to lay their hands on since they're not having a good running in the EPL. Atleast the Red Devils can balance the scale if they're able to pull a win for themselves, always enabling themselves to come infront of big winnings. There's also something to know about Manchester United, they can zipped up means and be able to inculcate wide span of winnings.

They don't have good run in Premier League that comes to last 9 matches and with 10 points less than top six, and their temporary rank is 13th, it's no chance for them to climb up to top six. Many competitors to beat for achieving a six position and their form is bad enough to make this taks impossible.

A six position won't help them too much, won't bring them to UEFA Champions League but if they win UEFA Europa League title, they will join Champions League next season. They need to play maximum 5 more matches including the final to take this trophy, and they know their main or even only task in rest of season is there.
