Find out who played the matches for Atletico Madrid in their 2011/12 Europa League-winning season.
It was the campaign that marked the start of Diego Simeone's glittering tenure in the Spanish capital as the Argentine succeeded Gregorio Manzano at the Vicente Calderón in December 2011.
It took Simeone less than six months to win a trophy as he guided the team to UEFA Europa League glory in Bucharest as they defeated La Liga rivals Athletic Club 3-0 in the final.
In fact, Atleti won all 10 of their Europa League fixtures that season under Simeone, which included their final group stage match and every knockout tie, home and away on their path to the showpiece.
Signed on loan from Chelsea in the summer, Thibaut Courtois played in 53 of Atletico's 58 matches in all competitions during his first season in the Spanish capital.
Adrian Lopez, who joined from Deportivo de La Coruña on a free in July 2011, scored 19 goals in 57 appearances in all competitions.
Atleti's top goalscorer was Radamel Falcao, who netted 36 goals in 50 appearances in all competitions, of which 24 were in La Liga and 12 in the Europa League - including two in the final.
Left-back Filipe Luis was another player to make 50+ appearances for Atleti in the 2011/12 season, ahead of Gabi, Eduardo Salvio and Arda Turan.
Diego Godin and Miranda were Simeone's main central defensive partnership with the centre-back duo completing the top 10.
