UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[Docnaster]

As I understand it, already at the stage of play-offs for the right to play in the 1/8 finals, maybe we will see epic matches, for example, United - Barcelona, if United cannot take first place in their group. It will be interesting to watch such high-profile pairs, and in less balanced ones, almost all representatives of the Champions League will most likely win, like last year.

This will still happen because indeed if Manchester United cannot take over the top spot from Sociedad it is clear they will be in a bit of trouble because they inevitably have to prepare to face a club that was thrown out of the Champions League and now Barcelona is still the biggest possibility to return to the Europa League for second time in 2 seasons in a row.

It’s a pity that if United can still take first place in the group (in fact, for this they will just have to beat Sociedad with a score of 2-0 in the return game), then Sociedad and Barcelona will not meet each other in any way, since the draw for the play-offs takes into account countries and breeds clubs from one country. But in the later stages we will definitely see something interesting like Arsenal - Barcelona.

Manchester United can be able to top the group. It is obviously what they need to do in order to be safe in the league. Barcelona is coming to Europa and Manchester United should try to avoid them. Manchester United defence can prevent Sociedad from scoring but I am not sure Manchester United attackers will get 2 goals easily from Sociedad. Let us see what Ronaldo can do in the match, because he is obviously coming back in the match.

Well Arsenal won and got the three points that secures them the knockout faze and that is the most important thing while now PSV still needs a win to secure that position. Arsenal did a huge job and now they have an amazing chance of winning this tournament that isnt easy at all.

Arsenal's performance in the Europa League is unquestionable and also very dominant. Of all the matches they have played, Arsenal has never lost or drawn. The result is always a win. So Arsenal's position at number 1 in the group phase is unmatched.
Especially during the match against PSV, Arsenal looked quite convincing and also dominated the game. Arsenal acted very aggressively and attacked, but unfortunately, his shot was not accurate enough. So from the many total shots, they only scored 1 goal.

Arsenal are in great form. Their team is much stronger. They have won many previous matches. They are defeating Liverpool and Tottenham. Arsenal will undoubtedly win the next match. The coach of their team has to be praised, he is really a great coach. Leading the team brilliantly.

I don't think it matters much for Manchester United where they finish in the group. They lost at home to Real Sociedad and they have won all matches and are therefore at the top of the group. United would then have to win out at Sociedad and that does not happen anytime soon. But if United comes in 2nd in the group, they also go through to the next round. The tension is not really there anymore in this group, it was already clear at the start of the tournament which 2 teams would go through to the next round. in other groups there is more tension on the matches, next week we will see who continues with the victories.

It was tough for Arsenal, but they were playing big, they have the UEFA Cup on their head, but they have a big load on their backs. Both the Premier league and the Europa league will be difficult. Xhaka's rebirth with Arteta this season, while almost a symbol of Arsenal's misfortune, is similar to Henderson returning from the brink of being sold and becoming a constant name for the team with Klopp. They're both very good examples of how players advance in a good team and system. Arsenal is the favorite among teams currently in UEFA. After the teams from CL, the job will change according to the chance of drawing. They are also good in the league, but City will probably win the league because I think Guardiola wants 3 out of 3 this year. PSV is also quite good. They also have the chance to make the quarter-finals according to the draw.

You are right. and the next opponent Manchester United will face is the Sheriff. And I think Manchester United can win this game. and Real Sociedad will also play Omonoia. And of course Real Sociedad also seems to be winning the match. so that in this group the tension is no longer visible. because we can already guess which team will qualify. But I'm still looking forward to the next match between Manchester United vs Real Sociedad. I want to see if this time Manchester United will lose again. but I hope Manchester this time can win. which shows that Manchester United have been able to improve their game performance.

You are missing some points, there is still tension in the group. The tension is who will qualify directly and who will face the clubs coming from champions league. That is why Manchester United will try their best to beat Real Sociedad with atleast 2 goals. But I know it is not easy. Those Spanish clubs like Real Sociedad, Villarreal and Sevilla always give Manchester United tough times, I don't know why.

[W Jr.]

All in all, a tough win for United. They may have shot on goal many times, but apparently not sharp enough all those times. Now those matches at this stage of the tournament don't say much, as they are all group matches and there is little pressure on United's game. Real Sociedad will win this group, but the difference between Sheriff and United is 6 points and Sheriff will not make up for that in this group. The real thrill and excitement will only begin in the Knock Out phase. I hope we get some nice draws then.

It is also not normal for the Real Sociedad to top a group that Manchester United is, in Europa League not even Champions League. Manchester United has to win Real Sociedad in the return match and will be able to top the table. If they don't top the table the people from the Champions League like Barcelona will come and hit them and they will still be struggling to escape another problem. So it is better they to the table and just be safe.

i think that it doesn't matter if Man Utd are going to finish first or second, because they should be able to beat every team they face in this tournament if they want to win it, and i've seen them play better against stronger teams, so Barca would be a very good test for them.

But with the current condition of Manchester United's players, it is clear that they have to achieve first position and like it or not, they have to beat Sociedad.
They are indeed comfortable in 2nd place now but of course Ten Hag doesn't want this to be too comfortable if you see Sociedad from a player perspective clearly below them.

Second place in the European league is very dangerous. They will play the play-offs with teams from UCL. Right now we can see that the big teams are third. The team that wins the Europa League will most likely be one of the teams eliminated from UCL. Therefore, Manchester United must be the group winner so that there is no possibility of an early farewell to the Europa League. They have to beat Real Sociedad for sure.

Game after game, they push themselves and demand more from themselves especially the last game they played against Omonia. To be honest they need to perform better than they have been,the Coaches and staff's have a clear goal to achieve and that's to maintain the top of the group, so as to avoid those from the Champions League, and also with the likes Barcelona likely to return again and Juventus makes it more tough and harder.

It now seems like, the Europa League Competition will be kore interesting than the Champions League mmh ? Lol.  So back to the Initial story, Manchester United should do all it Gon take to go top of that group.

They must beat Real Sociedad for group leadership. Then they can be the leader of the group, but we have seen in Omonia matches that they can have problems scoring goals. Real Sociedad, they are one of the strongest teams in Spain and even a draw will give them an advantage against ManU. Manchester United should look at the Real Sociedad match as the final and definitely win that match. Otherwise, they can be matched with difficult teams from UCL.

If Manchester United can beat Real Sociedad away (which I doubt), then in this way they will only equal them on points, but the goal difference at the moment is Sociedad +7, and Manchester United +3. Let's be realistic about getting around Sociedad even if Manchester United wins, so most likely they will be second, since it is clear that the Sheriff will definitely not be able to compete with them in this.

Real Sociedad are already leading the group with Man United as second place, yes they loss to Real Sociedad but that doesn't warrant saying they will finish top. Two more games to go they can end up winning Sociedad to top the group. Man u are doing what they can to avoid second place so they will not face club's dropped out from the champions league groups as it will be more difficult. The full players know they need to win the last two games of the group to claim first place.

Let us see what Ronaldo can do in the match, because he is obviously coming back in the match.

His return to the line-up is far from obvious to me - maybe Ten Hag will decide to punish him further and "show who's in charge here." Or Ronaldo himself will not want to play in the Europa League, I think he is ambitious enough to ignore United already and wait for the World Cup and the winter transfer window.
In addition, if Ten Hag decides that United should take first place, then he can play decisive games with the main squad, where Ronaldo is not currently included. And by the way, judging by United's recent games, I would say that Barcelona should try to avoid meeting it and not vice versa.

Arsenal performance is not just good only in the Europa,  arsenal are good in every league, they are one of the top teams in every league they are participating. Arsenal are aggressive in their games.

Real Sociedad and Manchester united will play their second leg match in their last match in the group stage and that will determine their position. I assume Real Sociedad and Manchester United win in their 5th game, if Manchester United win then the last match then their points gain will be the same, and goal productivity will determine their position, there are still many possibilities that will occur.

They are usually better than the teams they are playing, which means that they can afford to play them on Europa right now, in the league they are playing against very good teams, and it's harder to bring in him, I would say instead of all this trouble, if they kept putting him in at 70th minute or so for like 10 games at the start of the season, that would have given him enough match shape that he would be able to play all game, or you could have put him at start, and bench him at 65,70th minutes so he could rest.

That is a possible thing and would have worked for them. Instead, they are doing it "bench him on EPL, play him on Europa" style, which is weird.

Arsenal performance is not just good only in the Europa,  arsenal are good in every league, they are one of the top teams in every league they are participating. Arsenal are aggressive in their games.

Yes, Arsenal this season has been extraordinary, because in the English Premier League Arsenal have only lost one game and one draw. On average, all other matches end in wins, so this can be a bit of an early conclusion that Arsenal will also dominate the Europa League this season until they reach the final. Due to the fact that it has been seen so far Arsenal are clearly very strong in all matches even though the match played today in the Premier League ended in a draw.

Arsenal are in very good form now and their players are very confident in every match. And so now Arsenal team is very difficult to beat against any strong team. They will continue their winning streak in the Europa League. And I think they will be able to reach the semi-finals without a hitch. But becoming champions will not be easy. The Europa League also has several strong teams.

Real Sociedad and Manchester united will play their second leg match in their last match in the group stage and that will determine their position. I assume Real Sociedad and Manchester United win in their 5th game, if Manchester United win then the last match then their points gain will be the same, and goal productivity will determine their position, there are still many possibilities that will occur.

Manchester United still have match against Sheriff and if win can lead competitive standing with Real Sociedad and second leg match will be final and have to win if want lead standings position, but still depend with match left from Real Sociedad on matchday 5 against Omonoia, if win in this games just need get draw at second leg match with Manchester United lock first standing position qualify to 32 round. Manchester United need to win if won't pass trough play off round, seems not easy for Manchester United have away to Real Sociedad after first leg at Old Trafford have got loss from Real Sociedad.

Right now, there is no doubt about their quality and mentality but still they need to improve on away games because they are having issues which needs to fixed before big stage which is important if they want to keep this success until end of this season if they fail to fix their issues then surely they can face consequences as today they ended with draw against a team which are fighting hard for coming out of relegation zone so in next round surely they are going to face quality teams which can create more problems for them.

Here if they want to keep going as leaders then surely give no room to any opponent which give them shock or steal their this lead and win streak in last match against PSV they were playing relaxed so just because of this ended with the score of just 1 - 0.

You know this wrong. If the scores are the same between the teams, the scores of the matches played against each other are primarily examined. If two teams beat each other once, it depends on who scored more goals and conceded fewer goals. In other words, the score table is created according to the double average system, not the general average. According to this system, Manchester United's 2-0 defeat of Real Sociedad is enough for the leadership. Because in the first match, Sociedad beat Manchester United 1-0.

Manchester United must win their next two matches if they want to qualify for the next round from the top of the table. The Sheriff and the Real Sociedad team must be defeated. Undoubtedly, the opponents are very tough in both the matches. Manchester United lost against Sociedad at home. So getting points against Sociedad in away matches is definitely challenging. But my guess is that United will win the last two matches.

If Manchester United win their match against FC Sheriff with a landslide score then they have a chance to be the leader in this group. but as we know, Real Sociedad also has a match against Omonia, which doesn't seem like a difficult match for Real Sociedad to beat. clearly, they want to qualify smoothly for the next round. so Real Sociedad remains the leader in this group.

in the end, it was their last meeting that decided who would be the holder of this group.
If Manchester United wants to be top of the group, the last meeting will be an important match for Man United. at least, MU must subvert Real Sociedad with a landslide score. however, it seems that it will not go according to the scenario.
