Many thought that the match against Lyon would be easy for Manchester United. I would say that there is no chance to underestimate the Lyon team. Lyon is a strong team. We have seen better performances from Lyon in the first round matches of the Europa League. Also, Lyon players are able to perform well in the Ligue 1 matches.
Manchester United's performance in the Europa League is a bit strong, but this team's performance is not consistent. United lost against Nottingham Forest in the match yesterday. United's attack is weak. They are capable of attacking a lot, but they cannot score goals. So breaking Lyon's defense is going to be a big challenge for Manchester United.
Amorim's current problem is one of their attacking lines, and this season United have not found a solution. United's performance is indeed unstable, especially in the Premier League. Many say Amorim will focus on the Europa League, but facing Lyon will not be easy. What Amorim might do in the match later is to create as many opportunities as possible to find gaps in Lyon's defense. Lyon may not be very strong, but if they display a disciplined game later, United could be frustrated. Amorim has a big job to do.
