As much as I hate 2022 version of Pique, Busi, Raki etc. They were insanely good 2015, 2016. No point taking away glory from those days.

Head to head Vs prime Real and they won most of the matches pretty easily. Yet Madrid dominated CL. (it was a lot of good luck on their part).

Its not really better though. 1 treble, 1 more league title, and more cups is better than 1 cl and 1 league title. Thats just pathetic.

It didnt dominate Europe but thats cause Neymar left not because the trio failed.

Bro they literally made Madrid our bitches for as long as they lasted.

In 14-15: 1-3 loss , 2-1 win

15-16: 4-0 won, 1-2 loss

16-17: 1-1, 3-2 (without neymar)

So in these three years when MSN played we won 2, Madrid won 2 and 1 draw. In the 4-0 match Messi came when we lead 3-0 so MSN together wasn't really effective against Madrid.

It would fit a lot more to EV time.

MSN we’re also exceptional in 15/16, but we had a dodgy run in April which unfortunately included the CL exit at Vicente and of course we allowed Madrid back in the title race but we still rallied to win the domestic double.

That's interesting. I thought we crushed them almost every game. Must have been EV era other than the first super cup game.

Don't matter bro even if you just judge the three years they achieved goat level success.

Unless you wanted them to win 3 ucl in a row like Madrid, which was all luck.

How it can be GOAT level when there were teams who achieved the same or more? In 15-16 we were clearly the best team in the world, destroyed the team which won the cl 4-0 just to lose against Simeone's Atletico. In 16-17 we lost to Paris 0-4 and then to Juve 0-3 and even lost the league. This is far away from GOAT level success.

By the way, you don't win 3 Cl's in a row only with luck lol.

Was it 14-15 season or 15-16 season when we had 40 game unbeatable streak?

Imo, we lost our form 15-16 because our players were overplayed. We had no subs. Lucho was screwed. We made terrible signings and all failed.

It was in 15-16, we were terrific, the only team which could have had a chance against us was Bayern. Otherwise there was no team which was on barca level, that's why its terrible to see the team loosing to atletico. Yeah always the same line up, no rest, i don't know why Lucho didnt rotate.

That was fluke. Torres got red card and we missed chance after chance. We should have finished the series home in the first game. Disgusting feeling after.

Also second game we should have gotten penalty last few minutes.

That's how our luck was in CL compared to Real banging offside goals or whatever flukes they found.

Ramos breaking Salah hand, taking Liverpools goalkeeper out with concussion and didn't even get a card.

Man! Still annoys to think about these..

Madrid winning three CLs in a row is one of the most disgusting things in the football history. Especially with their performance, which was far from great.

These days Madrid Vs Barca rivalry is pretty much death. Madrid winning every game and the intensity of the games are meh. Boring even. 2014-18 I hated Madrid so much. It was good times rivalry wise.

In 2016 Barca could have had a penalty but that was from shot by Iniesta who should have been sent off for the hand ball at Atletico penalty anyway.

One sided to claim that game/decision was bad luck.

Barca were not good enough over those two legs and Griezmann led them a merry dance in second of them.

Yeah we had enough chances in first leg to close the tie. In second leg i felt we were a bit overbearing and also didn't except Atletico would play power football in full pressing and attack mode. It is what it is, guys.

We are talking about the three years, not only 14-15. All in all in three years one cl imo is not enough when you had the best trio in history of football in their prime time.

One UCL in 3 years is more than enough. Could have had more if it lasted for more than 3 years.

But the amount of trphies they won in 3 years is GOAt level success.

United fans still go on about the treble of 1999 till today. We have had two since then. One with MSN. Random Madrids teams will never be able to do it.
