@hc2155 Жыл бұрын

Robben and Ribery are probably quite a bit stronger than Gnabre and Coman. However, Lewa is much stronger than whoever Bayern's striker was then- Olic? Muller, Neuer and Boateng were still playing in 2019-2020. Kimmich is as good as Schweinsteiger in my opinion. Kroos is quite a bit stronger than Goretzka for now but Alaba is probably a bit better than Dante at CB but Davies has been phenomenal at LB (even compared to Alaba there). Lahm was a great, great player but Pavard also won a WC and a CL and turned up in the biggest games. For me, the midfield is definitely better with the 2012-2013 side due to Kroos but the attack and defence are much more even and might even swing slightly towards the 2019-2020 side. The fact that Bayern literally didn't lose a single game in 2019-2020 and played some of the best football we've seen in recent years deserves credit.

That's what I would say as well. I am a Barcelona fan but in that 3-peat Real was the most dominant in 2016-2017 I think by far. If you remember 2016 not to not give them credit by any means but their draw was probably the easiest, they have ever had till the final, and in 2018 the way they beat Bayern wasn't the best as it was with quite a controversy as I think VAR was still not available, but that has happened for basically any football team ever. But when I think of the best team, I basically look at what weak spots a team have, and in that 2017 lineup you couldn't find a single weak spot, I think Juventus was the best defence in Europe at the time and they smashed them 4-1. Definitely in the top 5 of all time imo over the 2018 team.

Ironically, they lost it in 2005 when all the players were in their prime. Kaka was emerging while they still have Rui Costa. Sheva and Crespo upfront and still had Inzaghi on the bench.

Little story. So back in 1994 the World Cup came to the USA, but most of the games were shown on ESPN and ESPN2, which were cable channels. My dad noticed that both my brother and I loved playing soccer and wanted us to watch it so finally decided to make the move and ordered cable tv. After the World Cup ended, I still wanted to watch soccer but the only channels that had it were the same ESPN channels from before. Crazy enough, because ESPN were still somewhat “new”, they didn’t have many tv deals for sports and the only soccer league they had was the Dutch Eredivise. I would get off the school bus after elementary school and run from my bus stop to my house and turn it on. I always remember seeing this 1994-95 Ajax side destroying teams and became a young fan. Also, because of Ajax, I started watching Champions League for the first time. After seeing the coaches wearing the champions league ball patches, I decided that I wanted to be those coaches. So in the end, because of my dad ordering cable for the World Cup, I fell in love with the game, and followed my dream and goal of wearing the champions league ball patch and became a college/professional soccer coach. One day I’ll wear that patch on my sleeve. Thank you dad and thank you Ajax.

No 2009 was better team. 2011 had messi doing tons of individual stuff But as a team that 2009 barcelona could do eventhing and thy were not as dependent on messi to succeed. In fact, in 2009 they kept better posession, had better defenders and etoo and henry would sometimes do better than messi. In the final in 2009 etoo played better than messi. Etoo was so good he carried inter the year after in 2010. The 2011 team was tough to beat but they were more dependent on messi.

I think 10/11 Barca is probably the greatest. 12/13 Bayern and 19/20 Bayern were absolute machines can't say for sure which ones was better but 19/20 Bayern was certainly one of the most dominant teams, they put every team to the sword, they scored 43 goals. No team has ever scored as many in a regular UCL campaign, and they did it in 2 less matches, put 10 past tottenham, previous year finalist, put 7 past chelsea, put 8 past Barca. Went on a 15 game winning streak, longest in the UCL history, which only ended when they fielded a second string side with 3 - 4 18 year olds against an Atletico said fighting for their life in the group. You probably gathered I'm a Bayern fan by now lol. Anyways 2014 - 2018 Madrid team rest would be that 92 - 94 Ajax team Those are the 4 standouts I can think of. There's the AC milan teams, the 00 - 02 Bayern team. the current Liverpool team.

Other teams that younger football fans should know about. Johan Cryuffs Ajax Amsterdam won 3 European Cups in a row between '70-'71 to '72-'73 and included legends like Mühren, Rep and Neeskens. This team, first managed by Rinus Michels, revolutionised football with their Total Football style of play and was the foundation upon which the playing style of the great Barca sides of the mid-to-late-2000s was built. The original Galacticos, Real Madrid of the late 1950s. Captained by the great Alfredo di Stefano- arguably the footballing G.O.A.T.- this team was stacked with star players such as the great Brazilian Didi, Hungary's G.O.A.T. Puskas and Paco Gento. The won five (5!) consecutive European Cups and their 7-3 win over Frankfurt in the '59-'60 final played in Glasgow was an inspiration to Sir Alex Ferguson, "Eintracht Frankfurt beat Rangers 12-4 on aggregate in the semi-final and, being a Rangers fan at the time, we thought those guys were gods. They were the best team I'd ever seen in my life, and then they got slaughtered 7-3 in the final! That put into perspective how good Real Madrid really were."

Barcelona 2015 was the best. World class player in every position with the best attacking trio ever with magicians who could individually tear teams apart.

And their run was amazing as they beat champions of France, champions of England, champions of Germany and Champions of Italy (and on top of that finished above champions of Europe in their domestic league)

Not necessarily a case for one of the best ucl ‘teams’ ever, but the 2012 Chelsea team has to be mentioned as one of the best ucl winning runs of all time, going up against and beating the likes of Barca and Bayern who’s teams from that era are considered amongst the best of all time. The way they came back to beat Napoli in the last 16 2nd leg after sacking their manager AVB and then go on to beat prime Barca and Bayern both times away with the players they had in comparison to Barca and Bayern was incredible. They were considered extreme underdogs both times and still managed to come out on top, especially the manner in which they did against Bayern in the final, equalising in the final minute and beating them on penalties in their own backyard. I would argue that the 2012 final was just as amazing a comeback from Chelsea as the Liverpool one in 2005, and deserves to be up there with one of the best ucl runs of all time.
