    Really really really difficult question as there isn't a flat out super club that excel above the rest.

    Some clubs with a good track record are Seongnam Ilhwa(currently bottom of the K-League) and Suwon Bluewings.

    There are UAE, IPL, and J-League clubs that have respectable records as well but i best leave that up for the Saudi's, Iranians, and Japanese to answer them for you.

    Overall, I think K-League clubs have excelled far aobve the rest of the Asian leagues in collecting more silverware for their trophy cabinets. :D

    well the mid 90s, Seongnam was truly a dominating force in Asia, but right now, they are sucking....

    There isn't that "Best club" in Asia type of sort, in europe, u could easily say Man U, Real Madrid, AC Milan, but there isn't that sorta of dominance from any Asian clubs so it's really difficult to tell.

    Ask that question in 50 years and maybe we could tell u then.

    The winner of the ACL is the best team in Asia.

    But for now, its the Suwon Bluewings, the team that will host Barcelona's Asia Tour in Korea - they are meritted with 2000-2003 ACL championships.

    Also probably the best teams are from the mid-east.

    Al Ittihad, Persepolis, Al Wahda ect.

    The most decorated clubs are probably: Seongnam (Korea), Suwon (Korea), Dalian Shide (China), Yokohama (Japan) and Jubilo Iwata (Japan).

    If we just look at the players, I don't see why Suwon can't kill everybody.

    They should be whooping the beejaysus out of everybody.

    Korea and Japan are the two best teams in Asia.
    Iran is third
    Besides those three teams, Asian teams are not playing football

    Aye, on paper Suwon have a fantastic squad:

    Lee Woon-jae (national team goalkeeper)
    Choi Sung-yong (64 caps)
    Seo Jung-won (85 caps)
    Ko Jong-soo (probably the most talented Korean player of his generation)
    Gabriel Popescu (21 Romanian caps, played at France 98)
    Kim Dae-ui ($1.3m from Seongnam, 12 caps)
    Nadson (Brazilian U-21 international)
    Marcel (Brazilian Olympic squad, 6th top scorer in Brazil league in 2003)
    Jo Jae-jin (8 national team caps, Olympic team member)
    ... amongst others.

    13 squad members have been capped by the Korean national team... not to mention the coach ;)

    Just need to find a measure of consistency this season...
