has revealed that 's dressing room is in a 'bad moment' just days before facing in the final. Both clubs have endured painful seasons but will have the opportunity to win a trophy in Bilbao on Wednesday night. A win for United would at least give them something to celebrate after months of disappointment in the Premier League.
The Red Devils had the chance to gain some winning momentum on Friday night against , but they came up short once again. Marc Cucurella scored the only goal of the game in the second half as the Blues took all three points. It saw United miss a golden opportunity to give themselves a much-needed boost ahead of next week's Europa League final.
Speaking after the final whistle, Onana hinted that United's dressing room was not particularly confident in a worrying post-match assessment.
He said: "We're in a bad moment, we're not playing our best football, we're not winning games. We move on. If we continue working and we are working every day, we'll turn this situation. If it's not tomorrow, it's after tomorrow.
"It's most important to give the fans that cup and trophy. It's very important for the club and the players. So far the fans have been the best.
"It's not the season we all want, we are used to playing better than what we're showing. We know the importance of this game. We will give everything."
United boss Ruben Amorim offered a more positive outlook, pointing to his side's improved form in Europe when compared to the Premier League. He also claimed the defeat to Chelsea had given him some food for thought in terms of the starting line-up.
"The good news is in the Europa League, we are scoring many goals," said the Portuguese head coach. "We have to deal with a lot of things in the summer, but today it was a really good game to prepare for the final.
"If we put some players out in the feeling of the last game, almost 10 days without playing, it would be a mistake. It was a good thing for them to play, that they feel they can do it, that we can have possession, can push the opponent.
"In this club, you need to win and we are not winning games. It helped me a lot to choose the starting XI for the final, so we'll see."
