The invincibles though special to my heart, can't be one that list. They didn't win it so they can only be the best team to never have done so. Hate to say it but Liverpool has more place there. They only really got stopped from some domination in Europe by Heisl getting UK sides banned for ages.
if you're talking about great teams of the CL era
surely Ancelotti/Zidane Real Madrid has to be up there
4 CL titles in 5 years ffs
Any room for Mourinhos inter treble winners? They beat peps Barcelona at their peak.
in the history of european football
di stefano's real madrid
beckenbauer's bayern
cruyft's ajax

No.... Because it'll pi$s you off
I'd probably take the Utd 08 side over the 99 one, even though the latter won the treble. Nothing in it but Ronaldo.

No really. Mourinho's Chelsea team is already in the discussion regardless. Just think his inter team are wort a shout too. Cesar, Maicon, Lucio, Samuel, Sneijder, Eto'o, Milito etc. Was some team.
1) Real 2013-18
2) Barca 2008-11
3) United 2007-2010
4) Arsenal 2001-2004
5) Chelsea 2004-2007
Honourable mentions for Ajax mid-90s, AC Milan 03-07 and Galacticos 1.0.
Liverpool are not even in the discussion.

Yeah likely, but they also need another CL for me, one as league champions and not losing four games on route and playing somebody better than Spurs in the final.
……………..
Any more stipulations ?
Would you like to hand pick the opponents for example?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If it were any other side Liverpool fans would be saying the same thing. It was a weak win, possibly the weakest CL win of all time, has another champion lost four games on route k have no idea but pretty sure the treats mentioned above didn't?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, so weak.
Not like we had to beat Bayern and Barca on our way to the final or anything.
As much as I love the 'Invincibles' side and even the double-winning sides, Arsenal shouldn't be on that list.
Wenger always did very well for us domestically, but what doesn't put him in the absolutely elite-level of managers is his lack of success in Europe.
We had 20+ consecutive years of Champions League football. We reached 1 final.
The fact he didn't win us a Champions League with the squad we had from 1997-2004 in particular means we cannot be in the 'top 5'.

Yeah the same Bayern and Barca sides that are clearly well on the way down hence both struggling to retain their titles this season after years and years of dominance

I knew you would come along.I did say to you that your record in domestic competitions after the money you spent is poor. You said its because Real prioritize the CL but its nonsense in my opininion.
You have let farza win titles whilst they were poor.
