We can thank Ajax for knocking Real out for us if you like.
Not a great record lost 2 finals v Real, and a more forgivable one in the EL. Only beat a hotly fancied spurs side as I recall

This is the point. Despite proving that they could win big - money was never forthcoming to beef up the squad. Players were asked to play more and more games with no genuine backup or rival on the bench.

The inevitable result is what has happened. The miracle of the late title defence season surge - minus Virgil - Matip - Gomez & Henderson - simply used by the owners as proof that the squad was deeper than it really was. So when the boys fought like lions for a quad - they were so badly smashed as to be potentially un recoverable..

This is where we are.

19s largely debunked this iirc, he provided the minutes played.

The quad remember had our lesser spotted players playing in it regularly.
Origi, Taki & Jota top for goals & assists in our cup double.
