UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[CageMabok]

Now that many teams are about to resume back to UEFA champions league competition, I guess there will be surprise  performance in this resumption from some teams because, many teams will feel they are on top no need of adding more effort again. Based on what I have experienced during the holiday, show that Real Madrid will lack in the area of attack which will cause the team poor performance because, they relaxed on one player in the team that is facing injury.

Don't think that Real Madrid isn't looking for ways to replace injured players with healthy ones even though their skills and appearance are different from those who are injured. And if you mean Karim Benzema, in general he still has time to continue to recover because the Real Madrid vs Liverpool match will take place in February, so Real Madrid has plenty of time to look for a better replacement in the transfer market.

After an interesting world cup performance it is expected that many clubs will perform poor as league competition will resume.
Some other clubs will equally do well because they will bring back the spirit from the World Cup to dominate their league.
In the Europa League I am expecting Manchester United to do better because in their team they have the World Cup winner and the World Cup finalist . These two will add high moral to the team when they arrive

Well first of all, this is the thread about the UEFA Europa League and not about the Champions League. So i guess you posted in the wrong thread. Regarding the situation of Real Madrid: I am not 100% sure but as far as i know Karim Benzema should be completely fit and healthy again when the second part of the season starts in the Primera Division, because there were already reports that he would have been able to play for France in the later games of this years World Cup but Deschamps still decided to leave him at hame.
The first matches of the Champions League are at the end of February, so i am pretty sure that Benzema will be 100% fit by that time.

Of course Real Madrid will not remain silent when they lose one player, moreover, this player has a very important position in the starting line-up. It would be very strange if they were aware of a position vacancy but they didn't look for and bring in players to fill it. There are many quality players that Real Madrid has, but no one player can fully replace Banzema's role, this is what has made them look weak lately, which has forced them to be willing to be shifted by Barcelona.

It's almost the same for Barcelona to do better than they did before leaviny for the world cup

Man United retuned a good way last night winning both halves against former city defender turned manager Vincent kompany who now a manager of Burnley.
They didn't get the results they wanted but they put on a good fight, Man United seem like the better side after all the hurdle to still win at the end

[KTChampions]

Lewandowski, Messi or Ronaldo's fitness is still excellent. And I wouldn't be surprised if they play until 38/39. I agree with you that Lewandowski can easily play until 38. But I don't think he will be effective at 38 for Serie A or Premier League. If Lewandowski can maintain his fitness, he can stay with Barcelona for a long time. Barcelona are going back to their old tiki taka tactics. And so I think if Lewandowski's fitness is good, he can stay with Barcelona until he is 38 and continue his good performances.

Capello said that in Qatar we saw the final death of tiki taka. I am inclined to trust him, because I came to the conclusion that even in it golden years, this strategy was nonsense and gave results only due to the highest skill of the performers. I don't think that Xavi will last long in Barcelona and that tiki taka will be relevant there (although it would be good since I'm a Real Madrid supporter). But in general, this will not prevent Lewandowski from playing until the age of 38-39 - La Liga is not as intense as the Premier League.

[rendravolt]

Lewandowski has been motivated to tries to add his trophy collection to his library, Uefa Europa league is one he doesn't have which I think is a big desire to create many goals to Barcelona. But, the age factor is one condition he must think if want to continue in europa competition because there is a opponent that has golden age player who can be as competitor. Barca also have the attacker who can replace him any time if can give a contribution like Dembele, Raphinha, Depay and Torres.

Competition between young players can sometimes make Lewandowski even sharper in front of goal, I think he will continue to play to fill Barcelona's starters even though he is no longer young but Lewandowski's instinct for scoring goals cannot be doubted. It is likely that Lewandowski is a strong candidate for the top scorer in the European league this time, but he will need to beat Vitor Oliviera's record of 4 goals in order to win the award. However, if there are other options if Lewandowski is unsatisfactory then the choice I think is the most suitable is Memphis Depay, although he is rarely played but he is still good enough as a striker.

Depay? In fact, he will be auctioned off at a low price in the transfer this time because his contribution is lacking.
I think in this case Lewandowski will still play his role well because in any case he is the hope now.
But this condition is still uncertain, especially we also may have to wait longer with things that will definitely happen in the continuation of the league because there could be some surprises about this transfer and the performance of the two clubs before the Europa League Play Offs begin.

Since Lewandowski's arrival at Camp Nou, Depay has rarely had minutes to play, so it's only natural that he hasn't contributed much to Barcelona which has made his market value also drop, but as an option to replace Lewandowski he's still quite good. But on the other hand, there is still no suitable replacement for Lewandowski's role, but the play-off round is still a long time away. We still don't know what will happen, let's just wait.

Robert Lewandowski have impressive performance with Barcelona and success become top scorer awhile with 13 goals in La Liga, I don't think Depay have chance to replace position from Lewandowski after biggest contribution until 14 matches. Still can't guarantee with Depay get regular position in Europe League trough Barcelona have important match in play off round against Manchester United, I think although success qualify to next round seems difficult for Depay get position in starting eleven.

Barcelona still have life and die match against Manchester United in play off round, due World Cup over and several player need recovery I don't think which one have favorite can win in this play off round match, but Manchester United have show with good performance after winning from Burnley at EFL Cup last night.

I think Barcelona will win against Manchester United and now that Cristiano left for the stubbornness of Ten Haag,the coach who wanted to make himself famous by not making Cristiano play (but history will remember Cristiano and no one will remember Ten Haag) is not going to be a big threat to Barcelona now,their attack lacks compared to that of Barcelona which has Lewandowski which is a true goal machine.

Manchester winning against Burnley does not show anything good from them as Burnley plays a category below Premier League and despite leading that category it has conceded goals in most of their games.Now I can bet easily on Barcelona to qualify further and I am sure I will win my bet.

[Docnaster]

On the United side, Manchester United is not an easy opponent to beat by Barcelona. Currently, Erik Ten Hag's squad is on the right track. they just need even tighter chemistry and bonding. plus, it only requires a sharp center forward. so, this match will offer an interesting match.

Both Barcelona and Manchester United have strong squads. There are many star players in their squad. But despite having a lot of talented players, the two teams are still not stable. And so the performance of these two teams against each other cannot be predicted now. Their performance will depend on Xavi and Ten Hag's match strategy. Both the teams will become stronger if the match strategy and bonding between the players are good. Both have the propensity to win the Europa League title. But since the first match is Barcelona's home match. So I will put Barcelona ahead in this match. Barcelona is very strong at home.

Currently, I don't think Manchester united is strong enough to face FC Barcelona. Analysis from 2021 till now shows that Christiano Ronaldo is the highest goal scorer of the team followed by Rashford. As it stands now, Ronaldo is no more in the squad and this season seems not to favor Rashford who is struggling to get back into form. Manchester United attacking line lacks influence compared to FCB's Raphina, Robert Lewandowski, Ousman Dembele, Memphis Depay, and Ferran  Torres. Currently, These men are very deadly in attack and that's a better advantage compared to manchester united.

Regarding Manchester United in the European League play-off round, it seems that Barcelona will continue to use their flagship players and Lewandowski will be the spearhead of their main attack. Manchester United is eager to rise to its best performance and its victory over Burnley in the EFL is a good starting capital when playing their next competition.

Tiki taka was an impressive tactic in its time, but for now many coaches and teams can anticipate their moves and make their defenses difficult to penetrate. This tactic might bring the team to control the match, but just mastering the match is not enough if you cannot penetrate the opponent's defense and score goals. I don't mean to be dismissive and consider this tiki taka useless, it's just that innovation has to be developed with the dominant ball possession they get.

Spanish side didn't play much of tiki taka but most of the tactics did go well as planned for them

That doesn't mean on should go ahead to say that tiki taka is dead yes I know that football has grown to another level still

Lewandoski will play longer than we even imagine winning la liga can still be achieved the club and players look promising for the future

But since the first match is Barcelona's home match. So I will put Barcelona ahead in this match. Barcelona is very strong at home.

Both teams have made improvements this season , a lot different from the previous season. Barcelona had quite a tough time in the champions leagues and got kicked out in the group stages of the competition while Manchester United are looking to continue their campaign in the Europa league  after the break. Their meeting in the playoffs will show how well both teams have improved and are ready to compete in European top competitions this season. Both have good squads and capabilities to win, I believe the game can go either way.

Trom the pattern and style of play, Manchester United is better than Barcelona. and how come, because in my personal opinion, Ten Hag has better abilities than Xavi for his Barcelona. just look, now Manchester United is better under the tutelage of Erik Ten Hag. while Barcelona, ​​actually they have players who have quality in their respective lines. it's just that, the problem is with Xavi.

I don't understand the patterns and strategies that Xavi applies to his troops. Barcelona's defeat in the Champoins League was purely wrong with Xavi's strategy and some of his players. it could be, Xavi repeated the same mistake when Barcelona met Manchester United in the playoffs later. when it comes to player depth, I don't doubt it. especially for Lewandowski, it's just that Barcelona's midfielders still need a lot of experience. plus, Raphinha's performance is very dubious. however, I hope Xavi has learned from his mistakes and the weaknesses of his team.

On the United side, Manchester United could have transformed into a team that is able to compete with teams that are above their level for now. there is only one problem left, Ten Hag needs a pure sticker, plus an attacking midfielder. If United get him in January, the playoff game will be even more difficult for us to predict.

[indah rezqi]

I don't know what the result will be, but as we are talking on the forum right now, I think the Manchester United-Barcelona match is being talked about all over the world.  There was no interest in the European league as before, but the teams eliminated from UCL definitely made this place very exciting.  Since Manchester United could not finish the group as the leader, they had to stay in these matchups.  I think Barcelona is better and will pass the elimination.

Indeed, no one knows who will win that match. Discussions about the big match between Barcelona and Manchester United will of course be very interesting because basically both teams have a large fan base.

Even though this match will actually be played in mid-February, I have found that some betting sites tend to think that Barcelona is the favorite. On the form of his team Xavi and Barcelona deserve it, but I think there will be some changes in the future when the league starts.

Manchester United is eager to rise to its best performance and its victory over Burnley in the EFL is a good starting capital when playing their next competition.

If you are aware of it, Memphis Depay's elimination from Barcelona's main squad was not because Memphis Depay's performance was bad, but Memphis Depay was injured. But lucky for Depay, even though at Barcelona Depay was injured but when the World Cup started Memphis Depay had recovered from injury, so Memphis Depay was still able to play at the World Cup yesterday.
So, if Memphis Depay has recovered, it is very possible that Memphis Depay will be paired with Lewandowski for the Barcelona match later and of course it will be better in attack that Barcelona has.

But regarding Barcelona who will play against Manchester United in the play-off round, basically it is a difficult prediction.
Because Barcelona's performance is not balanced with the good results they have achieved in La Liga and also in Europe, because if Barcelona can make a more balanced performance between the two then I believe Barcelona will be able to beat Manchester United. But yes, this result is of course still uncertain, because if Xavi does not maintain his good performance then of course Barcelona will be knocked out of the Europa League again.

[Velvet78]

I think Lewandowski's performance will play a key role in the Manchester United matchup. Because he hasn't been very active in big games so far either in the La Liga or the Champions League. It's like they have lost all of those games so far if I'm not wrong. If he improves his performance and make a score contribution especially then Barcelona can have a bigger chance to eliminate Manchester United.

They really don't have an easy task to perform here. Manchester United have been quite good in the Europa League so far. They haven't faced a bigger opponent than Real Sociedad maybe but I still don't think they will stay weak against Barcelona. It should be a close competition.

With the performance that Lewandowski has shown since he first joined Barcelona, there is hope that he can last longer with this club. He answered a need that Barcelona had not had in recent times, he also managed to adapt very quickly and it didn't take long for him to score goal after goal. Even now he leads the top scorer standings in La Liga. That suggests that he really was going to be playing for Barcelona for a long time until his age completely stopped him. From his 14 appearances for Barcelona he has scored 13 goals and that was in his first season. Satisfying statistics for a striker who has just experienced a new atmosphere in La Liga.

I don't mean to be dismissive and consider this tiki taka useless, it's just that innovation has to be developed with the dominant ball possession they get.

When a team has players such as Iniesta, Xavi, Garcia, David Villa, you can play tiki-taka and more, but it was a unique historical moment when initially the Spanish team assembled in 2008-2012 the strongest composition, to compete with which no team was able to.
Then also Barcelona, using the main backbone of the Spanish national team players Iniesta, Xavi, Puyol, Busquets built a team around them, adding the genius of Leo Messi. And we got a tiki-taka, then when these players of the Spanish team were no longer so good, this tactic "fell apart", because it was based on the unique skill of individual players and their chemistry within the team.

Is it possible that Xavi will partner Memphis Depay and Lewandowski on the front lines? It seems that this will happen considering that the two of them have similarities in terms of attackers, as a target man Lewandowski might be put up front and Memphis depay is likely to play the role of second striker.

At Barcelona, that's the reality, I can't understand why in the league they were so impressive, while in European competition, their performance had dropped a lot, did they start to have difficulty adapting to European competition, which made them have to be eliminated and had to be willing to go down to the European league in two consecutive seasons. It looks like Xavi and Erik ten hag will compete with each other in the European league play-offs this time, both of them have their respective capacities in their squad and that will make the match even more exciting.
