However, I admit that Manchester United was very lucky and managed to thwart Chelsea, who is in 6th place from getting Europa League ticket next season, hahaha the competition is truly unimaginable.

Manchester United appearance for UEFA Europe League season 2024/25 most luckiness after success winning FA Cup indeed finish outside of Europe League spot place. Manchester United had poor performed in domestic league for this season by finish on 8th standings position but winning FA Cup make Chelsea opportunity for playing in Europe League next season after finish on 6th position over. I don't know Premier League or FA regulation for giving the UEFA Europe League ticket, its seems not fair because any team had poor performance in domestic league and finish outside from Europe League spot but getting ticket after winning FA Cup trophy.

For next season, seems Manchester United performance as usually in this season and difficult for competing in domestic league and Europe League. If has opportunity qualify to 16 round I doubt with Manchester United opportunity lead to quarter final round if face the relegated teams from Champion League group phase.

Hahaha the rules in competitions like this have been around for long time same as the winner of the FA Cup getting a ticket to the European League, of course this is not about performance in the domestic league because competitions like the FA Cup and also the Premier League are important competitions Also.
Manchester United luck should be way for them to work well in preparing for next season, if they continue to perform poorly and are eliminated in the Europa League next season then it is clear that they are team that really cannot be relied on.
But it is still the end of the season and there is plenty of time for Manchester United to start correcting any mistakes and strengthening the composition of players in order to have performance capable of competing next season.

Nothing is impossible, just look like in the UCL, Dortmund were very lucky to reach the final and it was all because they had opponents they could beat even though Dortmund themselves were not strong team.
Something similar could happen to Manchester Uniter if they are lucky and only get opponents they feel they can beat, but opportunities like this are not easy to get, we see how things develop next season.
