For me its not enough to just win the trophies (I mean Chelsea came bloody close to a Qudruple last season!), but its the manner in which the 99 side won them. An FA Cup run against Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Newcastle, its about as hard as you could have asked for (and the way in which Liverpool and Arsenal were beaten was just incredible). Overcoming one of the best Arsenal sides in recent memory (Double winners no less) on the last day of the season to win the League. Beating Juve in their own back yard and never giving in against Bayern in the final. Its the character of that side which I admire most, not just the number of wins/losses or goals for/against.
And at the end of the day you can't agrue against Beckham\Keane\Scholes\Giggs!
