"Barcelona taking the 2nd spot...for winning nothing,"
"Barcelona won neither their domestic league nor the Champions League this season, but they did claim the Supercopa de España, the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup."
We are the champions of europe.
It doesnt mean we are the best team, its a knockout cup comp. would be like saying Cardiff are the 2nd best team in GB cause they were runners up to liverpool in the carling cup.
, but theydid claimthe Supercopa de España,the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club WorldCup."

All mickey mouse trophies
Who cares we are the european champions!!
I can think of 5 teams that are better than us off the top of my head...........
Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man City, Man United, Bayern Munich & Borussia Dortmund..........
so i would say being ranked 3rd is overly flattering toward us
before reading the list i thought it would be based on sucess over a long period of time - but having read it - united 10th? Montpelier 12th? city 5th? Valencia Behind Spurs?
You have to remember this is an american based website so take it with a pinch of salt.....
There should be a weighting towards recent success, so as to reflect the clubs that are currently the best. HOWEVER, they seem to weight too heavily, and indeed consider lots of factors, some of which are clearly disagreeable.
Seconded!
My exact thoughts.
Given that the league table doesn't lie, there are five better sides than you in the premiership for starters
Bayern Munich runners up in the three competitions they competed in. Remarkable achievement
