My take is they got lucky the 1st one of their run they won then used their experience to repeat

Any winner with a win% <100 could be considered lucky. And they've won all their knockout ties for almost 3 full seasons now.

Besides the above truism, I'm not sure they were actually the best in all these 3 seasons, let alone the best by a clear margin

Come on Real!
I don't really know what to make of this final either. We're better than them at everything and on every position. They've played really easy opponents to get here, granted you still have to win and score all those goals, but still. City are overrated, especially with lolPep in the CL and even if they played like they did v City, that's not enough to beat RM in a final. I don't see them coping with RM's level for at least 90 minutes, when they were done after like 60 minutes against City and Roma. I don't see Zidane being so stupid to play exactly into their game plan. They're fully fit, have a ton of options on the bench. Unless RM has an awful night, they should win it 8/10 times or something.

On the other hand, we will probably lose a CL final at some point. It's really weird, I haven't felt anything this week, nor do I feel anxious or something today. Maybe a bit, I really want to see Dua Lipa. But I know I'm due to a CL final loss one of these days haha, I ran so well in these 20 years or something since I'm watching RM games.

If Ronaldo can spare us all from decades of insufferable Pool fans, then he’ll be the GOAT in my eyes.

It's called Sour Grapes, and Madrid fans are among the hardest sour grapers I've heard sour graping in a long while.

LÖL at not wanting to win the league.

If RM were to pick 1 league to win would it be CL or LL? Obviously if Barca or AM weren't around it would be a lot easier to do it but right now I think it's pretty tough to win both your domestic league and CL. Games are so close to one another plus all the cups.
