You have to compare who they are facing with as well (also, the blatant referring decisions that go a team's way)
This was AC Milan 2005.
Dida
Cafu Nesta Stam Maldini
Pirlo Gattuso Seedorf
Kaka
Shevchenko Crespo
Do you really think that your Real Madrid side is better than that? I don't think so.
Also, it's Gerrard not Gerard and he is definitely not their best player in history. Almost all Liverpool fans would tell you it was Dalglish.
Cafu 35, Nesta 30, Stam 35, Maldini 37, Seedorf 30, Crespo 30, Shevchenko almost 30.
Almost all that team were very past their prime, and their defense while being legendary players, they were a bunch of old men.
Between 1999 and 2010, they only won 2 UCLs one Serie A (and they clearly didn't had a team to beat that was even near to Messi's Barcelona, the other winners in that years were Lazio Roma, Juve and Inter), so yes bro, they had good names in paper, but they weren't comaprable to this Madrid side.
About Gerrard and Dalglish, sorry but you are talking crap.
While its true they can obviously be compared, to say almost EVERY Liverpool fan prefers Dalglish is beyond ridiculous. Its very easy to google 'Liverpool's best player in history' and you'll find out almost all the rankings have Gerard in 1st and Daglish in 2nd.
But being realistic, it doesn't matter who is 1st and 2nd (it is very subjetive), we know both of them are the two best players in Liverpool's history while Salah isn't even in the Top Ten. In a few years maybe, but today after less than one season, he's not even close.
It is debatable because a lot of Real's players are now past their peak, which in turn would explain their inconsistency & poor showing in both semi final matches, along with the 1-3 home defeat to Juventus in the quarter finals. Yes, on their day they could turn anyone over. However, they need the players who've been responsible for their amazing success in the CL to perform at somewhere near their very best to achieve this. You only have to look at the current odds for the outright winner of this season's Champions League to see the uncertainty regarding the outcome. If you compared teams player for player based on their names & achievements then it would read as a non-contest & Madrid would be red-hot favourites, but they're actually not. Betfair currently has them @ 1.76 (8/11) to lift the trophy, whereas Liverpool are 2.3 (11/5). So in their prime you'd have an argument saying they were better than the Milan side of 2005. But seeing as footballers are generally thought to reach their peak at age 27, then you have one side (Madrid) with quite a few players past that age, & the other side (Liverpool) with quite a few approaching their peak. So I personally see this final as something as a 'rock. scissors, stone' scenario. Will Real's experience, know-how, & superior talent be the scissors that cut through Liverpool's paper. Or will Liverpool's energy, hunger, & desire be the paper that wraps up RM's stone.
Its not bro, in Milan they had Cafu, Nesta, Stam, Maldini, Seedorf, Shevchenko and Crespo past their peak, and with no depth at all in the bench woth players like Thomason, Ambrosini, Pancaro, Serginho, Dorasoo, Brocci, etc... and with Madrid, their only starters that are past their peak are Ronaldo (and its hard to say when he still managed to score more goals than games played this season) and Benzema, that this year he only starts half of the games.
The depth in Madrid's bench with Isco, Asensio, Lucas Vazquez, Bale, Kovacic, Ceballos, Nacho and Theo is something else. And if you take into account that the last seasons they won the UCL they also had in the bench players like Pepe, James Rodriguez and Morata, its just unreal!
With that bench you could easily make a team that would be between the favourites to win the UCL every year. Its easily the best depth I've seen in my life, and I'm pretty sure its applies to literally every person in the world.
All the others are in their peak or just before their peak bro, more than half of the players in the team are 25 and younger.
They have been inconsistent this season because they won everything last year and its hard to motivate them every week after that.
Barca won Liga and UCL in 2015, and in 2016 they won almost nothing. It happens a lot to the teams that won everything a season before. And of course, when you are inconsistent, you fail to win some easy games, that makes your confidence lower.
They were finding momentum between February and April, they won both games vs PSG, they destroyed Juve in Turin, and then again, they got too confident, thought the deal was done and Juve took them back to earth.
The problem is that, when you are having ups and downs all the season, and you lose a game like that, in your stadium, when you thought you were the indisputed best team of all, makes you doubt again. Since that game vs Juve Madrid has been playing bad again, in both liga and UCL.
Still they managed to win the first game in Munich and to tie the second one in Madrid vs and incredibly consistent and strong Bayern side.
I personally think this weekend's Clasico is vital for Madrid. Barca has already won La Liga, but the boost of confidence and motovation they can get if they win that game could be crucial for them to win the final vs Liverpool.
Let's wait and see!
I see Donald Trump and judge you
