Would have loved a Milan-Real final in 03 as well.
However for me Milan from 03-07 were the best team in europe - just imo of course.

If I didn't know how many decisions the refs gave in favor of RM I'd say RM were the best team in Europe... Even if the ref decisions are considered they still were better than Chelsea. So yeah, Chelsea were not the best team in Europe. Don't flatter Chelsea just to support your clearly flawed theory
And I'm confused trying to figure out when I claimed my team were the best

why people make that always as an excuse that they played with 10 men. nobody told them to play with 10 men. it's their own mistake and its fricking retarded to use that as an excuse like almost everybody does.

When this Barcelona side is peaking it's unbeatable. That's all I need to know.

You are acting like David Villa was out there. Villa plays in both legs and Barcelona destroys Chelsea and unlocks the parked bus. Villa buries those sitters that Alexis and Cesc missed.
El Guaje shined in Barcelona's biggest matches last year and I have no doubt he would have against Chelsea's parked bus.

if we are being honest,there is now way Barca was the best team in the world in the 2011-2012 season
I would love to say Dortmund but with that choking at CL groups stages makes it a big no,Real madrid or Juventus its then

Barcelona encountered way too many injuries to be considered the best team in the world this season, they really didn't have the depth to overcome them either. Real Madrid on the other hand, really encountered none.
I truly wonder how far Juventus would have made it if they were in this year's CL. I think Porto would have made it far too if they had been able to hold on to both AVB and Falcao for just one more year.

Juve's team is still too young to go far in the CL,same with Dortmund both among the best in Europe though

Villa wouldn't do 1/10 of what Messi do.. don't kid yourself , it's a daft excuse and they played u with 10 men
Villa was being slammed beginning of the season for missing too many chances now he is the savior..
oh well

Have to agree with Beast here. This forum bashed the hell out of Villa in the beginning of the season. We are just clutching at straws looking for excuses when the reality is we were up by 2 goals with one more half remaining and they were playing with 10 men (not to mention the missed penalty and the numerous missed opportunities). There are many ways to win the CL and this year Chelsea won it with 90 % luck and poor execution by their opponents.
Stating the obvious. You don't have a reason to be bitter anyways. We played Chelsea and outplayed them. You played Bayern and were outplayed. So don't blame Cules for feeling bad about watching lesser team lift the trophy.
They are deserved champions. There weren't ref mistakes. They just rode their luck until the end and won. That's football. Best team doesn't always win and that's part of it's allure.
Is it good for football? Does that kind of football make people want to stay at home glued to TV or go to matches?
Well..
