These two would be the last to whom I'd attribute United's treble. The main reasons were players like Giggs, Beckham (while he still played football and didn't shoot commercials), Scholes, Keane and SAF. And of course incredible amount of luck in the final. DP-Trez comparing with Yorke-Cole...

Great times indeed. Bayern with Elber, Scholl, Effenberg also deserves to be mentioned.

Scholl's free kicks were amazing, I remember he managed to score on one occasion while starting to slip just before the shot. Later on, after 2000 he was injured far too often, but in his prime, in Bayern and IIRC he was in Stuttgart before, he was world class player, no doubt. Edit: Karlsruher*

Terrific player, real brain behind that Depor side.
