1 `5 g: }% Q" [5 h, i; V5 X6 I, n# ?United have toiled at home in European competition all season and almost compounded their failure in the Champions League group phase by falling to Ajax on their debut in the Europa League. The Amsterdam club's 2-1 win in the last-32 second-leg ended an 11-game undefeated home run for Ferguson's team in Europe and the Dutch side needed only one more goal to progress at United's expense despite trailing 3-0 on aggregate after six minutes at Old Trafford. The result also left United with only one win from four home European matches this term, and Ferguson admits a vast improvement is required against Marcelo Bielsa's impressive side.

  {0 C, W8 {: ^. ^2 P- n曼联本赛季欧战的主场战绩都很惨淡，上轮欧联主场也输给了阿贾克斯。阿姆斯特丹球队2-1赢了曼联，这也结束了曼联在欧战11场主场不败的记录。虽然早早在OT就以0-3的总比分落后，但荷兰球队只要再进1球就能淘汰曼联。这样曼联本赛季的4个主场欧战也只有1场胜利，弗格森承认自己的球队必须改进。

From what we've seen, Bilbao are a very progressive team in Spain at the moment and it's going to be a difficult game for us. It's a game in which we need to waken up, there's no question about that. Some of our European form this season has been disappointing but it's an opportunity to progress and we have to take that opportunity. But it will need a very good performance."

弗格森认为曼联在欧冠早早出局是因为自满，他自己也担起了派出一条年轻后防线输给阿贾克斯的责任。他表示曼联会吸取上回合的教训。

; j0 \& {4 S% s3 ^' C! o"I don't know if we're making too many changes in these games," he added. "Certainly in the second leg against Ajax we did that, and in the Champions League group stage we made some changes. But we made mistakes in the group stage too, so it's our own fault. But we'll play a strong side against Bilbao and hopefully that makes a difference."

Bilbao are fifth in La Liga and have secured a place in the final of the Copa del Rey against Barcelona, with their coveted centre-forward Fernando Llorente – scorer of 13 goals in 22 league games this season – highlighted as an obvious threat by Ferguson. He said: "Unlike [most] centre-forwards from Spain, he's tall and a great header of the ball. His scoring record is very good this year.

They're very positive and have no hesitation in committing themselves to attack at any point, with a number of players. It's the best Athletic Bilbao team I've seen for some years."

“他们是西班牙一个不同的球队。传球不错，进攻很舍得投入兵力。他们很积极，进攻从不犹豫。这是近几年最强的毕尔巴鄂。”

Ferguson is confident, however, that the recent improvement in his goalkeeper David de Gea, plus the central-defensive partnership of Rio Ferdinand and Jonny Evans, gives United a platform to stifle the threat from the Basque club.

5 T( T; v. I) C弗格森很有信心，最近门将德赫亚状态出色。中卫费迪南德和埃文斯的搭档也很靠谱，这让曼联有能力封锁巴斯克人的进攻。

"It does tell you that when you play two partners together for longer periods rather than chop and change it makes a difference. Jonny Evans has emerged through having the experience of playing with Rio, so that's been a plus for us. I'll accept 1-0 against Bilbao rather than 2-1 or 3-2 without question."
