Only the second time in 35 years, Old Trafford In the next term, no continental competition is organized – a reduced workload that may simply help prevent relegation.
If that sounds like an exaggeration, then it’s not a big one.
United are so bad that the three clubs promoted from the Championship Should she regard them as potential rivals in the top zone of the top zone.

Their £ 72 million center-forward, Rasmus HojlundHardly looks like a player at championship level, their keeper Andre Onana Is a liability, they are desperately lacking creativity in the future and are often undone by basic defense errors.
And Amorim, despite the towering reputation he had forged Sporting LisbonIs not even the best in the RAG tag team that he has at his disposal.
The Portuguese are too dogmatic in his 3-4-3 system and needs a large summer overhaul to build a team that fits.
But against Spurs he also got his team selection badly wrong.
To elect Mason Mount About the Pacey Alejandro Garnacho to the left of his front, three was a striking mistake – and the Response from the Argentinian winger and his brother agent Roberto In that decision, the lack of collective mind reveals in Amorim’s team.
United is certainly not united.
Garnacho described their season as ‘s ** t’, while Amorim was Accused by the brother of the player of ‘throwing him under the bus’.
The selection of the manager of Bruno Fernandes In a deep midfield role, the captain often saw the possession in dangerous areas – including in the construction of the goal of Tottenham.
Fernandes is the obvious Elite football player from United, but he did not show up in Bilbao. And Amorim did not help things by selecting him as part of his central midfield two, instead of further ahead.

Man Utd Ratings: Diallo Best Player in Europa League final but Hojlund from its depth

The fizzing first half of Amad Diallo was little comfort for Manchester United in a gloomy 1-0 Europa League final loss against Tottenham.
The fate of Rasmus Hojlund in advance went on for many years in one of the worst European showpieces – because both parties showed why they will end up in the Premier League -bearer hand ranges.
Spurs took it from almost their first chance – in 42 minutes.
Brennan Johnson bundled in the Inswing Cross of Pape Sarr, with United Left-Back Luke Shaw also received a touch on the road.
The Red Devils dictated the possession more and more after the break, with Leny Yoro stretching to test Guglielmo Vicario of a free kick.
But the opportunities of United only arrived regularly in the last quarter of a fragmentary match.
The Red Devils stacked the pressure in the seven minutes of the stopping time on the pressure, but Spurs just held.
Here is how Sunsports Dave Courtnadge rated United on a miserable night individually and collectively for the men of Ruben Amorim…
Now, without income from European competition, the transfer budget will be even thinner.
There is a deal for Draw Matheus Cunha van Wolves But the hot -headed Portuguese attacking midfielder costs £ 62.5 million and has missed six games since January due to suspension.
Ipswich peak Liam Delap is now more likely to participate Chelsea Then United, but a striker must be a priority, given that it is really urgent to see Hojlund playing.
It all means that United may have to cash in for home -grown players such as Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo – Two of the most promising stars of the club – to strengthen and at the same time meet PSR instructions.
For a club rightly proud of his record of promoting the youth system, that is a delicious prospect – and Garnacho’s obvious displeasure because he is giving up for the final for the final, makes his exit even more likely.
Chief Executive Omar Berrada, when he announced the final round of Job Cuts, said that the financial projections of United were based on being in the Europa League, not the Champions League for the next four years.
But now they have no European football at all, club staff – already immersed by moral – will fear worse to come.
Next season, the rest of the ‘Big Six’ will probably be all in the Champions League together with Newcastlewhile Aston Villa” Nottingham Forest And Crystal Palace are also ready for European competition.
