We were lucky to get through yesterday, another flat European performance.

SAF admitted he made a mistake with some of the inexperienced players but promised our experienced players will be in team vs Athletic Bilbao in the next round.

Manchester United star Nani has admitted he is struggling to regain his top form since returning from injury.

The Portugal international made a tentative return against Ajax last week after almost a month on the sidelines with a foot injury.

And the 25-year-old then played the full 90 minutes of the second-leg encounter with the Dutch champions at Old Trafford on Thursday night.

But, despite clipping the crossbar with one second-half effort, it was a subdued performance from the winger as United only succeeded in creeping through to the last 16 of the Europa League.

With Antonio Valencia having suffered a hamstring injury in Amsterdam last week and the title race heating up, Sir Alex Ferguson could do with a fit and flying Nani for the upcoming trips to Norwich and Tottenham.

Yet the player himself feels he is still short of his best and will need to work hard to recapture his form.

"It has been difficult to get the consistency," said Nani.

"I am getting there but I need more minutes. I will work hard to come back because we need every player.

"Just now I am not at my best but I will try to recover my form as quickly as possible."

Tom Cleverley picked up a knock, he's gone for a scan and Sir Alex does not think it is a serious injury. Hopefully he will be fit enough for the trip to Norwich on Sunday!
