Yes, Manchester United's head coach, players, fans, and management will be happy if Manchester United finishes in the 4th position of the Premier League table, considering Manchester United's poor start in the Premier League this season. Luton Town will be an easy match for Liverpool today because Luton Town have failed to win in their last three matches in the Premier League.
The point gap between Manchester United, which is currently ranked 6th in the standings, and the top 4 in the Premier League standings, is five points. This means that Manchester United still have to fight more in several matches and expect to lose several matches to Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur, because the other three positions in the top flight will continue to be more fiercely contested by the other three teams. This is possible because the difference in the number of points owned by Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal is only one between them.
The process is still long, Manchester United still has the opportunity to get additional points in the next league match.
Indeed, the difference in point distance also influences the performance of one team's players to be able to overtake points above their current position in the standings.
And I heard that currently the Manchester United coach is secretly looking for a new central defender in his team for next summer's matches. Because, Manchester United will soon be left behind by one of its best players, namely Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans, whose contracts will expire in June.
Even though Manchester United is known as a team that has many top defenders, I don't think such a strategy would be complete if it wasn't based on good and neat cooperation between players. And it is reported that someone is already running to join the Manchester United club, namely Dan Ashworth as a young defender who still has good stamina so he can support Manchester United's rapid progress again.
