No one else remember losing to ajax and then Bilbao? Where are Bilbao now? They made us look like geriatrics.
That's after getting dumped out of the easiest champs league group...ever..? Maybe you all missed this and losing to city so heavily it ultimately helped us to lose the league.
I know most people tend to ignore the bad and only look at the glory but some people seem to think that we only enter one competition each year not 4..
One word. Context.
Bilbao/Ajax/City in the grand scheme of footballing things are no-where. Utd are always there (EPL) or thereabouts (Europe).
