Manchester United failed to impress in last season’s edition of the Premier League and, as a result, the club chiefs decided to appoint Jose Mourinho as new manager. The 2016/2017 season has been a mixed bag for the Red Devils so far and they sit in sixth place in the Premier League standings ahead of Matchday 29. The “Special One”, though, helped Man Utd win the League Cup trophy, with the team beating Southampton in the title game at Wembley Stadium. The Red Devils failed to make it to the FA Cup semis, but the team’s main goal is to finish the season in top four. 

Red Devils eyeing a place in the Champions League, but…

Manchester United do not take part in the Champions League this season and, no doubt, they are determined to regain their spot in the elite competition. The Red Devils are six points behind fourth-placed Liverpool in the Premier League standings, but it has to be noted that they have two games in hand. Upcoming fixtures against Middlesbrough and WBA are of big importance for Jose Mourinho’s team and they are likely to fight tooth and nail in order to pick up all six points from those matches. However, Manchester United have yet to face the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of the season and that is the main reason why many football predictions suggest the Red Devils are not going to represent England in the Champions League next season. 

Europa League trophy – ticket for the Champions League

As things stand now, Manchester United are unlikely to finish the season in top four, but they could book their place in the Champions League by winning the Europa League trophy. The Red Devils are with one foot in the quarter-finals of the European competition and it is more than obvious that Jose Mourinho is determined to win the trophy. Manchester United are regarded as hot favourites to go all the way in the Europa League this term and I would not be surprised if Jose Mourinho’s men give fans yet another reason for celebration following the League Cup success. 

Prediction

Manchester United will be playing on two fronts in the remainder of the season and seeing that Jose Mourinho can count on his key players at the moment, there is every chance the Red Devils will make it to the Europa League final. On the other hand, Man Utd have slim chances of winning the domestic trophy and considering that the fixture list will not be king to the Old Trafford outfit in days to come, Jose Mourinho is unlikely to deliver a top-four finish. Anyhow, it is more than obvious that the former Chelsea coach has helped Manchester United make a slight progress this term.
