Not really an issue now is it?
That being said, I’ll take a few easy runs to the trophy until we get to 5 or 6 since Liverpool had the pleasure of dicking small clubs back in the day before the UCL format. Getting them to shut the feck up about their “5 times” would be glorious in its own right.
Also, we should also not forget that Real Madrid had very lucky moments on their side during these matches.When Real won the 2016 Champions league they faced Roma, Wolfsburg and City. No disrespect to those teams but its easier than facing say Bayern, Barcelona then Juventus.
That Inter team had a very talented squad as well, Pagliuca, Bergomi, Colonnese, Taribo West, Dario Simic, Zanetti, Djorkaeff, Aron Winter, Diego Simeone, Pirlo, Paulo Sousa, Ronaldo, Baggio, Zamorano, and a few others like Recoba, Kanu, didn't he have a heart issue at the time?, Silvestre, Ze Elias, Cauet as backs ups.The '99 win was so enjoyable not just because it completed the treble but because it felt like we'd conquered some of the best to win the thing. The draw threw us up against Bayern x 2, Barcelona x 2 , ahem Brondby x 2, Inter, a great Juventus side and then Bayern again
