*Official* Athletic Bilbao v David De Gea Match Thread - Bye bye Europe for another season!

Instead of my usual graphics, let's instead use this thread to talk about our enduring memories of our glorious 2011/12 european campaign.

What will yours be? Our epic encounters against Basel and Otelul Galati? Or our sensational home form?

The DVD will be a must have.

Otelul Galati.

When wazza stepped up to take that all important pen that kept out european dreams alive

Then we went and ruined it in basle.

i liked that bit where fergie said there no problem and snapped at a journo when there really was a problem and then everybody laughed and then we got knocked out and it wasnt funny anymore but we were all ok though because the gap has been closed... oh wait.
but saffers said we are better off so its all good

Being a goal up and feeling invincible for 2 to 3 minutes before going back in our shells then conceding. Will miss that feeling.

Yep, that was marvellous.

I thought the unconvincing home win against the team I'd never heard of was up there with some of the great European nights.

word

De Gea, Rafael, Evans, Ferdinand, Evra, Park, Carrick, Cleverley, Giggs, Young, Rooney

subs:
Amos, Fabio, Smalling, Pogba, Scholes, Welbeck, Hernandez.

Thinking Basle were actually a decent side who deservedly played us off the park, only to watch them ship seven in Munich the other night.

Fergie assuring us that we'd 'closed the gap' on Barcelona by not improving the team over the summer.

about 45 mins before united realise a game has started probably.

Was just about to get all pissed off about forgetting the early kick off and not leaving work in time.

Then realised that I don't really give a shit.

Good times.
