Maybe so but Barcelona have the best squad in Europe yet failed to win it this year, does that mean their a disaster? Competitions anything can happen, I would rather win the League than the Champions League.
Yeah, Barça won it last year and got to the semi finals this year. With a squad that had 8 world cup finalists don't you think we should look to get into at least one final out of the two? Or even a few convincing performances in the knockout rounds?

I've said I was unhappy with the performances within the Champions League in those two seasons but how can you say we failed when we won two League titles.

Oh I know about the league, and agree, but a club like ours shouldn't restrict it to one major trophy a season in that sort of era with those sort of players. Capello should take responsibility for not taking that group of players further, we were humiliated against Arsenal at Highbury.

Lippi, now he had the idea to juggle the Champions League and the league (lets not talk about how many finals he lost eh).

Do you think Capello was a failure here?

Apparantly so. He'll remain here though I feel. Were pushing for Dzeko and not a SS so that leads me to believe that we will play with only one Striker :xfinger:
and dzeko is the perfect player for a system with one striker.


as for capello. he managed to win the championship but in europe we failed. i don't care so much about what a team offers to the spectators and i won't judge him for this. but in that time juve was a team with 10 world class players in the starting line up (except zebina) he should have done better in europe...
