    I'm wondering what everyone's opinions on the best club in the world. Which is it? I say Real Madrid because of their talent. But there is a lot of them, and without a World Club Cup, who's to say? The World Club Rankings don't look right to me. Celtic in front of Real and Man United? Celtic are a great team, no one is denying that, but I don't see how they are better than Man United or Real. I don't like Manchester United but they have a really good team.

    They certainly prove it time and time again in European competition. :rolleyes:

    Real Madrid, Juventus, Milan. Those are the three best clubs on earth.

    Well isn't that the point. To be able to say they are the best club in the world they MUST do well in European Compitition and not just in thier own league..

    And that is why they aren't the best team in the world...

    Manchester United has won 8 out of the last 11 premierships. That's dominating the premiership.

    It's because Celtic wins their league every other fu cking year. So they have more points than a lot of other clubs. But I hate Celtic, and as much as I like Real Madrid, they sometimes have TOO much talent for their own good.

    Uh, not really since it wasn't the Premiere League then! But to get to stats Man United have 15 top division titles and 12 runner-up finishes. Arsenal have 12 titles and seven runner-up finishes. Hardly dominating. Closer to Everton with nine wins and seven seconds! Man United had a 26 year gap between titles ('68-'92) but finshed second four times. Other then that since 1952 the biggest gaps were six years (58-64) and one year since 1951. In that same period Arsenal has had an 18 year slum (54-70) and a 17 year slump (72-88) and a six year slump (92-97) plus the three years including 99-01. So I would say based on facts that Arsenal has never dominated the top flight!

    you know, i honestly have NO idea. but i don't hate arsenal. i just don't like them very much. henry is impressive, vieira honestly freaks me out because he is so good, campbell has more balls than any other footballer, pires is pretty good as well, but other than that, they have nothing that no other club doesn't have. but i support numerous clubs. only one english club, but putting it on here is stupid because the second you go to another team's forum, you get bitched at. just putting england or putting nothing at all works for me.
