They surprised everyone in the champions league even though they progressed through the easiest side of the knockout phases and faced less tough opponents in their quarter final and semi final to reach the final. I am not condemning their performance but i feel if they were placed to face madrid or manchester city earlier in the knockout or quarter final they wouldn't have made it to the final. I was suprised with the way they played AC Milan, they outplayed them both legs and it was even more interesting due to the rivalry between them. If they are very determined and focused just like in the champions league they are likely to challenge for the league this coming season.
Can i call that if serie a clubs were lucky enough? All of serie a clubs being placed in the same group last season. There was only porto which was a club came from the different league. The chance for who candidate that would be going to the final will be owned by serie a club.
I kinda feel the result will be different if there are also serie a clubs in the group A. Let's say that if intermilan and napoli replaced by madrid and bayern. The outcome will be very different.
The same thing will not gonna happen again next year. Serie a club must make a lot of preparation to face the different situation. So many clubs in another league were massively improving their clubs. All of big clubs in serie a were also doing the same thing like them too.
The saddest thing if lukaku being ended as most disliked guy in serie a.
