Manchester United were primarily beaten in one department against Athletic Bilbao – the midfield. Ryan Giggs and Park Ji Sung were just not good enough. Michael Carrick never is. Paul Scholes cannot be expected to come to the rescue every time. Which leaves Anderson. The once-great Brazilian hope for Sir Alex Ferguson to take over the engine room at Old Trafford and weave the kind of game that would unravel playmakers like Bilbao. An exclusive story in the Sun today now puts any hope of that in jeopardy (http://bit.ly/zhbZBz). Anderson could miss Thursday's Europa League crunch after his injury curse struck again. The Brazilian midfielder damaged a leg muscle during the 3-2 first-leg defeat to Athletic Bilbao last week, on his return from two months out. Anderson has spent the last few days resting, to see if his injury eases. And is Anderson does not make it, United’s hope of not being overrun in midfield all but disappear. As will any hope of a comeback win to progress.
