Worth remembering that in our two Champions League final appearances we've narrowly lost to the undisputed best teams in Europe at the time - prime Ronaldinho-era Barca, and a PSG side that battered Inter 5-0 in last season's final.
Back in the day, Fergie's United got played off the park twice by Pep's Barca. Klopp lost two finals to Real Madrid and his only final victory came against *Spurs* for crying out loud.
Recent wins by United, Liverpool, and Chelsea also came via penalties. Even treble-winning City only beat a poor Inter side 1-0 and struggled to play their best football.
Yes we can improve but a bit more luck and we're 100% lifting this trophy in the next 2-3 years.
Iraola at Liverpool means another transition period, same with Maresca at City and 3 game a week Carrick, Arteta akiwa mjanja hapa tunachukua back to back
Unrelated but some footballers were literally born with footballer names 😭
Like what do you mean your name is Kevin De Bruyne, Ousmane Dembélé or Lamine Yamal? Those are NOT accountant names man 😭
There was absolutely no universe where someone called Zinedine Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo or Zlatan Ibrahimović was ending up in a 9-5 or working at a bookstore 🤣
Five years of dating a married woman, then he proposed. Her husband was shocked and so was everyone else. Some love stories don’t just break rules; they break people.
