Alex Ferguson reveals his plans to dissect Manchester United's "disappointing year".

Alex Ferguson has said that he plans to dissect Manchester United's "disappointing year".

The Red Devils have already crashed out of the Champions League, and yesterday they suffered a Europa League exit at the hands of Athletic Bilbao.

A 2-1 defeat in Spain meant that United slumped to a 5-3 aggregate loss.

"We try to analyse this season against other seasons, it's a bit difficult," Ferguson said.

"I think that there is a route in terms of some of the goals we have lost in these tournaments. They have been pretty poor, so it's something we need to analyse.

"It has been a disappointing year."

Despite their European campaign falling short, United currently lead the Premier League with 67 points from 28 games.
