Not a record I was expecting but I'll take what I can get. Out of 7 we better win at least 1. Severely underachieved this season.
That's what I wondered too. Too much wacky baccy being smoked, methinks.

maybe not but it's the wrong order for any club that wants to show progress.

Although that's different, Porto won the UEFA cup and the CL the next year, and became the first team doing that, if I'm correct. But I'm not sure if anyone has won the CL and then the other competition.

There's actually four European trophies. You forgot the one you never won and will never win, the Inter Cities Fairs Cup!

Abolished in 2009. Interestingly enough, it's the one trophy that Manuel Pellegrini has won as a manager on this continent [in 2004], and his team still needed a penalty shoot-out to manage it. That's the kind of CV that certain posters on here think is suitable for City!
