Top 10 Team achievements in 21st Century

1. Judd Trump winning 6 ranking titles in a single season with still few more tournaments to come!
2-10. Not bothered

Leicester were favourites to go down and won the title. Nothing this century compares to that.

Atletico 2014 was amazing but it doesn’t compare to Leicester or Greece.

Atletico were the 3rd best team in La Liga and reigning Copa del Rey Champions.

As I said, for shock value, but Atletico's season was way, way tougher.

The cup win you refer to was the first time they'd beaten arch rivals Real Madrid in over 13 years. Imagine not beating Spurs in 13 years, then going and doing it in the cup final at WHL, no less.

That kicked off what was almost as close as you can get to a perfect year, in the world's toughest league, the title race that lasted 38 full weeks.

And it's not just that they won it on the final day Arsenal-away-to-Liverpool style, it's that the league race went all the way from week 1 to week 38. Only one week in the entire season did the gap at the top stretch beyond 3 points. Neck and neck for 38 consecutive weeks against teams no.1 and no.2 in Europe (as good as saying worldwide, really), and capping it at the Camp Nou?

And there's the CL run: unbeaten all the way down to the dying seconds of regulation time (Atletico fans always say the Ramos goal was preceded by a foul, but as a Madrid fan I'm not going to bury my own side). Coming from behind in the return leg of the semi away from home. They played Barcelona 6 times that season and didn't lose a single game to them.

All on tuppence compared to who they were up against.


Don't know what you consider that achievement, but that team had balls of an outer-space alloy 100 times harder than steel.

Actually, it wasn't even in your top 10. Go figure.

I wouldn't have the achievements of Juventus or Bayern dominating their leagues for almost a decade in there. Not only are they clearly the best teams in those leagues but it's under different managers and the teams will have changed quite a bit in that time. I'd sooner put Dortmund winning 2 straight titles under Klopp than Bayern winning 7.

Bradford City from League 2 reaching a League Cup final deserves a mention.

Tbh I actually meant to put it in my top 10, but I somehow forgot when actually writing the list lol.

I'd put it 6th.

One spot below Barca's sextuple in 2009, because I'd never seen a football team dominate games the way that Barca team did. Even when they were down to 10 men and losing away at Chelsea in the UCL semi-final, I thought they would win. Much like Thanos, they were inevitable.

Liverpool signing Van Dijk and bringing through Trent has to be in there somewhere.
