Ruben Amorim and his players should work harder in the Europa League, because the competition here is a little easier than in the Premier League. Manchester United can automatically secure a ticket to the Champions League if they are able to win the Europa League trophy, I don't see them being able to win that ticket in the Premier League, at least for now. Manchester United really have all the attributes to compete with any team for trophies, we can see they were able to hold Liverpool to a draw at Anfield. The draw shows that The Red Devils do have strength, we'll see how far Ruben Amorim can take his team forward.
Manchester United can try to do it but there are also very strong opponents in the Europa League, so you can't be sure that it can be an easy win for them. I'm also not sure that it makes sense for Amorim to strive for the Champions League now, first they need to improve their game and strengthen the team so that it becomes competitive in this tournament, because in the current state they have nothing to do in the Champions League. I think that Amorim will be required to improve their positions in the Premier League too.
It is not that they can try it, they will of course try it, but that's not what makes anyone a Europa League winner. It is a very long way until the final. The first goal should be to avoid the playoff round, which means two games less. But then it is still seven games to go that need the highest level of dedication and stability and this is what I think Manchester United will not be able to get done. The stability in their game. Sometimes they have it for one game and the result against Liverpool was due to them fighting hard and not giving up while making sure that they keep Liverpool's goal count low. But so far none of the good games they played have been an indicator for the next game. It's surprises all the time and that is what will get them knocked out from the Europa League at some stage.
