Agreed, they are very "functional" now seemingly. to that end i see no difference between them and Liverpool. The only fear factor for us or any club is the emotional nonsense attached to the romance of other leagues. We are the finest squad in world club football bar none imo and have been for 2 seasons. The cl has never been a meter to be judged against for myself as it seems to be for others, we have hit sublime heights. The trophy is most welcome however should it arrive.
What a fantastic goal to win the game,under the cosh for long periods but dug in and a sublime finish from a 38 year old think it may have been his first touch as well ..
