my issue was with them being labelled as middling, which they clearly were not middling doesn't mean every club who struggles to win the CL Over the past 25 years the only teams to have won the CL were Chels Real Barca Bayern AC Milan Manure Pool Inter Porto (Mou again) all are multiple EC/CL winners Juve lost FIVE finals in that span wone none (they have only 2 wins against 7 losses in CL finals) but they are hardly a middling club. The only other multiple winners are 3 clubs whose European glory days have went poof long ago (Ajax, Benfica, both of whom still are great domestically, and then the long shit Forest) Forest IS a middling club, the first one listed here. Citeh and PSG have never won it, but they are hardly middling clubs now (both have only been truly dominant for around the last 10 years though). Middling clubs for me are clubs that never win (or almost never) any sort of trophies, domestic or otherwise, but also do not get relegated and occasionally finish in the top 10. Middle of the table clubs, to be more precise.

Inter in 2000s was hardly a middling club Serie A titles in the 2000s : 2005–06, 2006–07, 2007–08, 2008–09, 2009–10, Runners-up in the 2000s : 2002–03, 2010–11 Coppa Italia titles in the 2000s : 2004–05, 2005–06, 2009–10, 2010–11, Runners-up in the 2000s : 1999–2000, 2006–07, 2007–08 Supercoppa Italian titles in the 2000s : 2005, 2006, 2008, 2010, Runners-up in the 2000s : 2000, 2007, 2009, 2011 UEFA Champions League 2009–10 FIFA Club World Cup 2010 Inter has never been relegated from the top flight of Italian football in its entire existence. It is the sole club to have competed in Serie A and its predecessors in every season since its debut in 1909.

some cuts from----- 🚨 Christian Falk's Fact Files - Bellingham latest, German court decision on Moukoko, Marcus Krösche to Liverpool? & more https://caughtoffside.substack.com/p/christian-falks-fact-files-bellingham snip I heard that Jude Bellingham is keeping a very close eye on what Liverpool are doing at the moment. I’ve been told nobody should think he’s a player that wouldn’t go to Liverpool because of the difficult situation they’re in. It’s the other way around - he’s actually the kind of guy who would love to go to a club where he can change their fortunes. At Liverpool, he sees that the club is in need of him and that he can build something there, so that’s why the side remains an interesting option for him. As you see in the Premier League, they’re not massively far away from the Champions League places but it’s important to note that Champions League qualification isn’t a deal-breaker for Bellingham. Of course, it wouldn’t hurt Liverpool’s chances! Jurgen Klopp’s already mentioned in his interviews that something has to change and it’s clear, when you see the positions in need of reinforcement, Liverpool need someone like Jude Bellingham. Everyone’s talking about Liverpool’s defence; okay, they’re not brilliant at the moment but that’s connected with the role Bellingham would potentially play in front of the backline. He’s one player who could offer a multitude of solutions and would have an instant impact at Liverpool. He’s the captain at Dortmund and if he goes to another club he might be one of many leading talents - at Liverpool he would be a leader from the first moment. snip It’s been an interesting week for Yousouffa Moukoko. Chelsea and Newcastle United were interested in the player, though there were rumours around the latter not wanting him due to the allegations in terms of his age. Now, a German court decided that the media is allowed to report about that. Before, there were just rumours but now journalists are allowed to ask the question ‘is he four years older?’ So this is very interesting for England because the rumours had been there. Youssoufa Moukoko has 12 goal contributions in 26 appearances for Borussia Dortmund this term In my point of view, I saw the document which says he’s four years older. It’s not been proven that it’s a true and authentic document but now we can discuss ‘is he four years older? That could be the case.’ I say that, at his current age, it’s not that important because he’s still young. If you give him a four or five-year contract he’s still the right age. Of course, it’s a question of education; how much better could he get if he’s 18 or 22, or at least 26/27 at the end of his contract? I think English clubs are keeping a closer eye on Moukoko and, in particular, this big question. Dortmund are behind their player and, of course, were aware of the rumours. In Dortmund, however, they have to consider the fact that they could have the next great striker for the German national side (he was at the World Cup already and celebrated his 18th birthday there). We don’t have any good strikers at the moment, so it’s something to take into account. There were always rumours about Bayern who had talks with the agent but were told ‘no’. I think it’s good for Moukoko that he’s got a new contract now and we’ll see how his development goes. Chelsea It doesn’t seem like Callum Hudson-Odoi has a big future in the Bundesliga. In the winter window, Chelsea had the option to bring him back to the club - that was the wish of Thomas Tuchel when he was the manager - but the side didn’t use it, so that says a lot about his education there. Also, Leverkusen's bosses are also quite disappointed with the quality of his performances. Last weekend, he had another chance in the starting-XI against Mainz and again didn’t make the most of it. I think, all in all, he’s only managed one shot on target at Leverkusen. We’re quite surprised in Germany about the situation given how highly-rated he was by Bayern Munich. Hasan Salihamidžić internally called him a €100m man. They wanted him very much. The good news is they ended up with Jamal Musiala instead, which was a great story for them but not so much for Leverkusen. At the moment, if he doesn’t improve the quality of his performances, it looks like he’ll be heading back to London. If you can’t play at Leverkusen, though, it’s getting hard at Chelsea. 📰 Tottenham interested in signing on-loan Chelsea star Romelu Lukaku this summer (Fichajes, via CaughtOffside) snip Fabrizio Romano’s column: I’m not aware of any contact between Chelsea and Mauricio Pochettino. Chelsea were in contact with Pochettino last year when they sacked Thomas Tuchel, but i’m not aware of any fresh contact right now. Pochettino wants to return to management and is open to all the options. Pochettino has been unemployed since being sacked by PSG. snip There’s a big question for RB Leipzig over their ability to get Jonathan David given the player won’t come cheap from Lille. They need a player like him, of course, and the interesting thing to note is that both Max Eberl and Marco Rose also wanted him before for Gladbach when they worked together. They want him but they have to see if they have the money. I heard that the player is ready for the next step but then you have to pay up - I know Lille are looking for about €40-45m, so this could be a lot of money for Leipzig. But they need a player in his position. Timo Werner is having a better time than he was at Chelsea but he’s not the same goal-getter he was in his first stint at Leipzig. 📢 RB Leipzig boss Marco Rose on Joško Gvardiol (via CaughtOffside😞 “Josko Gvardiol will be a RB Leipzig player next season. He is happy here.” Victor Osimhen I can say for sure that Victor Osimhen was never on Bayern Munich’s list. It’s not just whether or not he fits within the structure, he’s too expensive; if Bayern can’t pay him, no other Bundesliga club can, which is very hard for Wolfsburg. Most people don’t know that he played a very good U17 World Cup for his country, scoring 10 goals. Arsenal, Inter Milan and Fiorentina were interested but then he went to Wolfsburg, which was a big surprise, securing him in January 2017 for €3.5m but he didn’t perform well. They sent him on loan to Charleroi, who then bought him for €3.5m. The rest of the story is that he went to Lille for €22m, then Napoli for €75m, and now Wolfsburg would no doubt love to have him back but he’s now in the hundred plus millions of euros range. They didn’t have the foresight at the time and now the Bundesliga is making big eyes and would love to have him back but now he’s lost forever.

There are many utterly superb vintage Ports out there. Some bottles go for hundreds or even thousands of pounds. Rare Madeira (especially the hundred to even 200 plus year olds) bottles can be even more. I am not talking about some of the dodgy cat piss you often find in grocers and offies. Vintage Port Wines https://www.wine-searcher.com/regions-vintage+port Vintage Port is the most expensive and prestigious member of the Port family. Though accounting for just a fraction of total Port production, Vintage Port is the Douro's flagship style, produced only from a single vineyard in an exceptional year. A Vintage is "declared" in only when both the quality and quantity of the available fruit align. Samples are submitted to the Institute of Douro and Porto Wine in January, two years after harvest. After tested and tasted for quality assessment, vintage declarations are made by the end of June. Vintage Port is made from the best grapes in the Douro, typically from the Cima Corgo subregion. The grapes are left to achieve full ripeness before they are picked, vinified and then fortified with high-proof grape spirit. Vintage Port spends a short time aging in barrel – only two to three years – and is bottled, unfiltered, when it is still very dense and full of sediment. This is why Vintage Port's minimum bottle-aging period is considered to be 15 years, and it is often said that no other wine requires as much time in bottle to balance itself. The finest examples are capable of vitality well after 50 years. As technological advances improve wine-making equipment and the ability to predict weather forecasts, it is likely that port houses will be producing years of Vintage Port more and more often. Recent widely declared vintage years include 1994, 1997, 2003, 2007 and 2011. Critical successes have helped bring about a renewal of interest in the style, and Vintage Port is often considered as an alternative to Bordeaux or Burgundy as an addition to the cellar. Decanting Vintage Port prior to serving is necessary, as the sediment in the bottle can often become crusty over time. snip https://islandwinestore.com/gb/blog/post/33/most-expensive-port-wine 1.

Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port 1937 - €3,500 5. Fonseca Vintage Port 1977 - €2,500 The most expensive port wine ever sold was Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port 1962, which sold for €8,900. This port wine was made from a single vintage and was aged for decades in oak barrels, resulting in a complex, rich flavor. It is considered to be one of the finest port wines ever produced. Other expensive port wines include Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port 1945, which sold for €5,000, and Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port 1940, which sold for €4,000. All of these wines are produced in the Douro Valley and aged for decades in oak barrels, resulting in a unique flavor and aroma that is prized by connoisseurs. Port wine is made by fortifying grapes juice before it ferments and adding grape brandy during the fermentation process of the blend. This gives the wine a strong, sweet flavor with a reddish-brown color. The flavor of port wine can range from floral and fruity to complex and rich depending on the type and age of the wine. Port wine is a unique and complex drink that can be enjoyed by connoisseurs and novices alike. The price of port wine can fluctuate depending on the availability and demand for a certain vintage, making it an interesting and ever-changing market.
