I regret the modern use of stats to back up opinion. There was that Sky assessment a few months ago discussing the best ever ( or since the 70's?) English side. They had a point system to cover three years, 3 for the European, three for League, 2 for Europa, 2 for the FA, 1 for the League Cup. Paisley 82 came out on top with Fergie's Ronaldo and Rooney side in second. But achievement is only half of greatness, you can't measure the poetry of a side, the beauty of the play. My favourite Liverpool side, my favourite ever domestic side is Kenny's 88. It was from another planet, light years ahead of everyone else and would have won at least two European Cups. I still remember the feeling I had when seeing that 4-0 against Forest.
