now i'll be honest, i wasnt disappointed to see you lose the league race on the last day of the season, but even as a Utd fan I have nothing but respect for what both Liverpool and Klopp have achieved over the last 5 years or so.
Yesterday you pushed City to the wire, and you have done it the right way and playing the more eye catching football.
they say the League table doesnt lie, however for me I do think you are a better team than city ( sure that a few fans will object to that).
My question to you guys is if you fail to beat Real in the CL final, how will you view this season.
While its nice to have the domestic trophies in the bag, given how your season has gone if thats all you end up with, that would be like being told you have won the euro lottery only to find you matched 2 balls.
not a wum article, just curious as to how you guys would rate it.

For all their years of domination Manu never came close

I dont think that is really true, in 99 we were 4 games away from the quad.

Yes but the key one of those 4 games was in early December, so your quad attempt was actually over before Christmas

Yeah...however you were put out of the league cup at the quarter final stage in December. Wouldn't say you came close to winning the league cup. We're in May and got to every final. We played every game possible and lost one of them(potentially two) in the last game... last ten minutes in fact

Why are you acting like you lost the Premier league. City were always first.
You were chasing them.

Possibly to do with something regarding the fact we lost the Premier League.

Also, the domestic cups were the only trophies we hadn't won under Klopp so its nice to complete the set.
This side has shown the flexibility to stamp its mark on all the competitions, something City have failed to achieve while being probably the greatest team this league has ever seen.
No other team in Prem era has won all the comps in such a short period of time. Even the great Fergie needed 13 years.
Disappointment can creep in because of short termism, because of the way short term events panned out like coming back from 14 points behind with two games in hand to losing the title by a point on the last day. But we were miles behind last season and it was still a title not won.

Maybe because with 8 games to go the title was in our own hands, just as it was with City.
Unfortunately we drew that day and from that moment we were reliant on City dropping points but we were very much in the hunt.

League Cup and FA Cup makes it a good season and it's great that Klopp has won them now.
He's changed every number on our Champions Wall. We can't really complain about that

Finishing 2nd hasnt hurt. City came out on top and fair play to them. Both teams had brilliant seasons.
In my lifetime i have experienced 2 champs league final defeats and they hurt like a mathafooka so yeah if we lose at the weekend I will be devestated.
