Manchester United: Key questions for Ruben Amorim and Man Utd after the final defeat of the Europa League | Football news

The Manchester United season, already their worst never in the Premier League, reached a new hollow in Bilbao when they lost against the Spurs in the Europa League final.

The victory would not have transformed the season of United into a positive, but it would have provided a light of light and a reason for optimism.

Instead, after losing for the fourth time this season against the 17th League team, the road to United back to the elite seems longer than ever. Again, more questions are asked in Manchester United and their head coach that the answers are provided.

What is the identity of Amorim’s United?

The performance of United in Bilbao has raised familiar concerns, not just their quality but also their style. Amorim stuck in his privileged 3-4-3 training rigidly, even in the last stages, when each Tottenham player was behind the ball. “I will not change,” said Amorim later and his resilience is admirable.

But the proof that this training is not suitable for its players is almost overwhelming, a coherent game model is still not emerged, and Amorim’s belief in its system has felt an obstinate sequence too far in the Bilbao final stages when it is united, predictable and stifled, has kept three center centers on the field despite Tottenham’s obvious refusal to leave their own.

Is the head coach’s position threatened?

If this is the case, it should not be. Amorim needs more time and, given the size of the problems he inherited, also merit. Practically, United could probably not afford to change their head coach again, and certainly could not afford to accept that if Amorim leaves, all the people involved in his appointment will also have to go.

But it is also just to say that Morim spent a very bad night in Bilbao. No matter the training, what about the team selection? The start of Mason Mount was a bad colossal judgment, immediately exposed when Alejandro Garnacho did more in his first five minutes on the field that Mount had made in the previous 70s. Angel Postcoglou not only defeated amorim tactically, he also won the selection battle – the decision to start Richarlison and leave heung -min sound on the bench was an understanding vindicated.

Amorim presented himself well at his post-match press conference. But he almost always does it. Likewise, Luke Shaw was exceptional in his summary of the situation and the post-Final support of his head coach. The problem is that United never seems to impress these days in their out-of-range media tasks.

How many players do they need, to 10 loved ones?

Ouch. This is a question that was asked halfway from the final and it is difficult to answer that it is only 10.

Think about this way, West Ham is the team directly above United in the Premier League table. But how many united players would they take outside Bruno Fernandes? Since AMAD would be in competition with Jarrod Bowen on the right, it is not clear that the answer does not stop with Fernandes.

Does United has finance and infection to revise their team?

Although Murim predicted at the beginning of the week that a victory would only contribute only one summer signature, the essential is that the victory in Bilbao would have worth around 100 million pounds sterling for a club which has lost 300 million pounds sterling in the last three years.

United may simply not have the financial weight this summer to revise their team half as much as they want or need it.

It was particularly worrying to hear Fernandes recognized so late Wednesday evening.

“If the club thinks it’s time to separate because it wants to make money or anything, that’s what it is,” said Captain Uni.

Barely insurance.

What does Matheus cunha think now?

And what about Liam Delap?

United will have no kind of European football next season.

Regardless of finances, and they are a huge obstacle to the overhaul, does United still have the power of traction?

Andre Onana – Twist or Twist?

From a football point of view, it is difficult to assert that the worst decision of United in recent years has not replaced David de Gea by Onana. There were flashes but no more than that. What was not, they are enough backups or convincing performance. United needs a new goalkeeper. But they also need at least two new attackers, a few wings and an authority in the midfield. Given the choice, where do you place a goalkeeper in this list of actions?

Should the “Pure Profits” Mainoo and Garnacho be sold now?

From the point of view of the very important PSR, the sale of Kobbie Mainooo and Garnacho “Homegrown” would be extremely beneficial. But when a redesign starts by selling your best players, how far are you?

Do you play once a week, with up to 10 teams in Europe next season, actually help United?

This is not the case and this is not the case.

Postcoglou was very clear after the final he had abandoned the Premier League in order to focus on the Europa League. But there was a puff of convenience to this explanation. To what extent is Tottenham not that good? The problem with the Premier League is that there is not an equivalent to play Bodo / Glimt in the semi-finals and that United could well find, even with the rest of the inactivity, that it does not make any decent difference without the players fairly good. Admittedly, they will not be tired. But just because they are not tired that they will not be terrible.

What United really needs is new players, and many of them, starting to withdraw from this rut, and it is much, much more difficult to attract and finance these new players without European football.

The qualification of the Champions League was not a remedy for all their ailments, but it would have been an important route in their route to recovery.

It would have been both an escape and an escape.

Now, United has neither.
