Something similar happened last season with Liverpool, as they were chasing not less than four trophies across all competitions. At some point, it seemed like it would be the best year in the club’s history, but the Reds were left with “only” two cup crowns, winning both FA Cup and EFL Cup. However, Jurgen Klopp’s side lost the Champions League final (to Real Madrid), and the Premier League title slipped through their fingers in the last minutes of the season (with Manchester City celebrating the win). And that whole ‘make it or break it’ period lasted not more than ten days. Cut to the present, and Liverpool’s archrival Manchester United are in pretty much the same situation, being the only team in Europe still chasing all four accolades.Manchester United are the only Premier League side still in the fight for four trophies this season.Will they end their trophy drought? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/0HTfNfTxuh— ESPN UK (@ESPNUK) January 29, 2023 On Thursday night, the Red Devils are fighting for their place in the next round of the UEFA Europa League. If they top Barcelona, probably the fiercest rival on the road, the chances of their second UEL title in six years will rise significantly.##NAJAVA_MECA_7041449##And then, just three days later, on Sunday, Erik ten Hag’s boys are going to Wembley to face off against Newcastle for the first silverware of the season in the EFL Cup showdown. Needless to say, how vital those two games are for the entire season’s momentum, and two eventual victories would pave the way for something glorious (EPL and FA Cup titles, why not?). For something, Liverpool were so close to last season but were short in the end.##NAJAVA_MECA_7041504##UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE – Knockout stageSecond legThursday 20.45: (4.60) Nantes (3.40) Juventus (1.85)20.45: (4.20) Midtjylland (3.45) Sporting (1.90)20.45: (2.25) Monaco (3.60) Leverkusen (3.30)20.45: (2.00) PSV (3.60) Sevilla (4.00)23.00: (2.25) Man.Utd.
