Man Utd lost in the Premier League match against Nottingham Forest and after that they will fight with Man City the possibility of getting another defeat is higher then their position in the standings will drop even further indicating that Amorim is not ready to lead Man Utd to the best position at the end of the standings this season.
And here in the Europa League competition the hope of qualifying for the next phase is still open, the remaining 3 matches they will play against teams that are below their strength, if they can go further then the chance to win the title will certainly be greater, moreover if we compare the UEL and EPL competitions then the answer is the EPL which is more competitive,
then I agree with you it is not wrong if someone speculates that Amorim will focus more on this competition the most important thing is to get a UCL ticket Plus a bonus trophy.
Amorim will have quite a lot of work in the MU team to bring them through to the next round of the Europa League. Although the chance to qualify is still open, I see competing with other teams will be quite difficult for MU even after qualifying.
Amorim cannot only focus on the Europa League, of course, he will be demanded to improve MU's position in the EPL standings. a big challenge, but many hope Amorim can do it. we will see how MU will shop in the transfer market later, maybe the results will help MU in the rest of this season.
Amorim's target now is to stabilize Manchester United's overall performance. Amorim's target is not just to do well in the Europa League or Premier League platforms. We have been seeing very irregular performance from Manchester United for a long time. Manchester United's performance was irregular in the last two seasons as well. So it is unlikely that Manchester United will start performing well after the change of coach this season. Amorim needs to be given enough time. If given a long time, maybe Manchester United will become strong again with the help of Amorim.
