AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti believes Liverpool are the toughest opponents in European football.
The Italian has pitted his wits against Rafa Benitez's side in two Champions League finals, losing out in Istanbul in 2005 before prevailing two years later in Athens.

"Liverpool are the hardest team to play against in Europe," said Ancelotti.

"Benitez is a great coach. He has a well organised defence and the perfect counter-attack. To play against them is always dangerous.

"Liverpool don't let you play."

hardly the greatest compliment.
tbh, as a Utd fan, I'm happier with the compliments Utd, Arsenal and Barcelona get year in year out regarding the quality of our game, than to be known as a team that's "hard to beat".

but fair play to the skause, they've found a style that the big teams find difficult to combat, ugly though it is.

stopping another team play is what football is all about! well, winning i guess! And I think you must have forgotten about the demolition of man united, real madrid and aston villa. don't you think all of europe was watching united getting thrashed ;) .... the only ugly football came from united!

again you are mistaken, football is supposed to be about playing football, passing and moving, scoring goals, playing around the opposition, that's how teams such as arsenal, barcelona and united (although not much this season) play

liverpool very seldom play this way, against madrid they did it, fair do's, against united it was long ball city, and against villa it was soak up pressure and hit on the break
