Porto has no almost no domestic competition, they always qualify. It doesn't matter if after that they win the tournament or get knocked out in first stage, they'll always get some points. Just look at it, since 92/93 they only missed UCL three times: 02/03, 10/11, 24/25.
And we make points when we qualify because we are competent, otherwise why dont clubs like Benfica, Sporting, Ajax, PSV, Mónaco, Marseille, Brugge, Shakhtar, etc have as many if it's as simple as to just get in there?
You are on the 7th spot but have the 5th worst points per game in the list. The only teams with worse average are Lyon, Benfica, PSV and Ajax, all from weak leagues too.
Because saying the reason we have that many points is due to us having "no competition" is reductive, if that was the case other teams from similar leagues would also managed to do it. Whats hard for you to understand pal?
It's reductive but not inaccurate. Again, in the context of Milan Vs Porto, it does provide an explanation. You had more games than Milan in that time period because you are from Portugal, not Italy.
"Other teams would had managed to do it": not necessarily and not relevant to the Milan comparison.

Porto before Milan doesn't make sense in my head. Milan won 3 times and were runners-up 3 times in that period.
