What a shame......Shame about those 2 points eh?
Liverpool are obviously a good side but they won 2 penalty shoot outs, which we all know are total crapshoots, and also got the easiest CL knockout run ever.
Nowhere close to best team ever.
Villarreal are 6 points off 6th! In la liga. Either going to finish 7th or 8th. They did well to beat Bayern but they were clearly punching above their weight.Beat a Villareal side that knocked out Juventus and Bayern and before that a Benfica side that were a banana skin for anybody. Wouldn't call Atletico, Milan and Porto an easy group to get out of either. Porto have smashed it this season domestically and Milan are the best side in Italy currently. Atletico aren't quite what they were but can still shithouse any side over two legs.
We're a "good team". To call this current Liverpool side that is just silly.
Instead we can say we kept the title from Liverpool.The only thing, that could have made this more sweet, was if City f'ed their match up, and Pool couldn't manage a win themselves. Looked like it for a while as well.

Real Madrid drew PSG in the round of 16, Chelsea in the QF, and City in the semifinal.
All 3 of those sides are better than any side liverpool have faced in the entire competition.
Knockout draws can be a crapshoot and there’s no question Liverpool were fortunate.
