You can’t compare the Cup Winner’s Cup to the CL

especially if the opponents were Standard Liegi (10-0 on aggregate), Turin and Parma.

Parma were a pretty good side back then

Yeah, pretty good but not like Juventus, Inter or AC Milan.

At least it was a win…CL today is just about money.

Sometimes you post utter shit…
And wengers teams have been beaten by Monaco Valencia Galatasary etc…

Maybe Maxi thinks European football has only been a thing since 1996.

It’s been harder to win since the CL expanded the number of top clubs in it and the European Cup has always been much harder to win than the Cup Winners Cup, Europa or UEFA Cup.

This.

The little trophy picture still goes on the stadium concourse though because regardless of how easy or difficult it was to win the Cup Winners Cup (it wasn’t easy) it was a European trophy and it’s a significant achievement of the club (of any club). If and when we win the Champions League we will join only four other teams who have all three trophies to their name (unless someone else joins the list in the meantime).

Our European history is not illustrious. We’re perfectly aware of that. We shouldn’t be downplaying the bit we do have.

Roberto Sensini
Luigi Apolloni
Antonio Benarrivo
Alberto Di Chiara
Tomas Brolin
Gabriele Pin
Massimo Crippa
Gianfranco Zola
Faustino Asprilla

And that team hadn’t won the following around this time

Eufa Cup 94/95, ECWC 92/93, Euro Super Cup 93…

I said this to Chelsea supporters when they won the Europa. “We haven’t actually been shit enough to get demoted to the Europa”

If we were playing the ECWC now, we wouldn’t have to play Barce/Bayern etc. We’d be quids in against he likes of Napoli.

I didn’t say that. I said: Parma were not a top class team in the league like the others.

Playing against Apolloni, Di Chiara, Pin, Broli and Crippa is different than to play against Ferri, Berti, Jonk, Costacurta, Albertini, Laudrup, Conte or Julio Cesar. It’s only that.

Snob.

Such a shit competition he couldn’t even win as a supposed top, top class manager. Hello, Galatasaray! Unlike his peers.
