We did not play in Europe that year, and had almost no real competition aside from Milan. We struggled against the minnows of Serie A, and pretty much lucked our way to a scudetto in the weakest year Serie A has had in its history. Somehow Milan choked everything away. Our hard work was great and inspiring, and I'm super happy we went unbeaten and won the scudetto, but that side was decidedly average compared to this one.
15 draws. We drew Chievo, Bologna, Genoa home and away that year. We also drew Lecce at home, Siena at home, Cagliari at home... That's embarrassing. TO suggest this side was better than our current side is beyond silly, it's insane.
We have 84 points with 6 rounds left and we're in the SF of Europa.

You, sir, are ridiculous. Perhaps rather than continually insulting the ability of our manager (who is well on the way to bringing us a third scudetto in only his third season with a record point total, while making a deep European run) you would be better served by supporting him and this club you claim to support.
Fickle.
Fickle.
I don't even know what to say to this. Clearly, something is malfunctioning in that brain of yours. That aging, and falling apart Milan, that relied on a single player to get them results would have struggled to get top 3 this year.
Pussy football? What exactly is this? Playing to win? Because we certainly play each and every match to win. You might not like our tactics, but we're certainly going out there to win, not to bend over backwards. I'd suggest pussy football is playing for draws, parking the bus, etc. We do neither.
Seriously, go spew your delusional nonsense somewhere else, and stop insulting our manager.
We don't have competition this year. 
The second placed team won 79 points, and in all other circumstances they'd be massively leading on the standings. The only reason they don't occupy the 1st place are us, who are having tremendous season. Even Napoli with 67 points are well above average for a 3rd placed team. What are you people smoking I wonder at times? 
Of course we don't have competition as we're that good. We went past every obstacle that came our way, cruised at times, made it look easy. Full credit goes to us if anything for accomplishments thus far.

Get a grip man. The match we played in the style you want was home against Gala. We outshot them 26 to 7, and out-possessed them 60-40. We pressed them all over the pitch and we conceded twice on the counter because when we press that hard, we're very susceptible on the counter to a team like Gala and even Copenhagen that is decent on the counter. We outshot Copenhagen 27-9 and out possessed them 60-40 too in our away draw, we were the better side by far, but conceded on a free kick swung in after a foul to stop a counter of theirs. Look at what Conte did to Roma by not allowing them to play on the counter, we ceded some possession, and destroyed them easily.
The reason we're out of UCL is exactly that 2-2 draw with Gala, where we didn't play pussy football, and the 1-1 draw with Copenhagen where we also didn't play pussy football. We pressed both sides hard and had poor luck finishing in each match, and dominated proceedings, but left ourselves very exposed to counterattacks.
