Is there any hope for Manchester United this season. They are 14th on the Premier League table, the FA Cup was their only chance to restore their bragging rights after a long disappointing season run but they have been kicked out of the competition. There isn’t hope of United winning silverware this season, Manchester United are not in a stable position neither are they consistent to be considered as title contenders for the Europa league title this season.
Yes, they have to be eliminated from the FA after losing to Fulham, even though in the previous season they managed to be in the Europa League because they managed to win the FA Cup. Now the Europa League is their only chance to win the title and it is not easy either, while in the English League they can't do anything. In the next few minutes we will see them playing in the Europa League against Real Sociedad, I want to see what they can play.
Liverpool's next match will face Southampton and Everton in the Premier League so it will be a little easier for them to get full points because the opponents they face are not too strong and even Southampton itself is the weakest team in the Premier League at this time.
It is not too difficult for Liverpool to beat Southampton who are currently languishing at the bottom of the standings, but Arne Slot will not take any risks in this game because he must keep his core players fit to face PSG in the second leg of the UCL. Rotation will be carried out in several positions to prevent their mainstay players from getting tired or in the worst case scenario getting injured, but Liverpool must still prioritize their goal of getting three points to prevent Arsenal from closing the gap on them.
There is no reason for Liverpool not to win in a match against a team at the bottom of the standings with the lowest points. It would be very annoying if they had to lose points, even a draw would feel like a defeat for them.
This is an opportunity for them to get full points and keep their distance with their competitors in 2nd place. It should also be remembered that now it is approaching the end of the season where every point is very crucial. Moreover, Liverpool has a less than good record towards the end of the season.
