We never managed to do it despite being one of THE best sides in the 1999-2009 period, which speaks for itself.

The Juventus team of the 90's that made it to three finals in a row whilst winning the toughest league in Europe weren't a great team? Our '99 team that won three leagues in a row and went unbeaten in that campaign playing Barca twice, Munich three times, Inter and won from two down at Juventus away in a semi final weren't a great team? Our '08 team that made it to three finals in four years weren't a great team? Guardiola's Barca weren't a great team?
