In the Europa League Man United appeared fierce and impressive but not in the EPL. Ended up losing to Wolves recorded United in the last 4 matches have not won 3 points. Stagnant in 14th position in the standings and increasingly difficult to return to the top team environment. Amorim first season in the EPL was quite bad but he could still be saved if he was able to bring the UEL trophy.
Amorim openly said that the only games that matter this season are the Europa League games. He is simply stating a fact: in the Premier League you can't win anything that will affect next season, but in the LE you can win the title + a ticket to the Champions League next season. I would be very surprised if any manager didn't choose the LE as the main priority in such circumstances. Realizing this, it is easy to accept the fact that in the Premier League United plays by saving their energy and thinks only about the Europa League.
