Just got me thinking on the thread about Liverpool getting beat last night.
So what which is the best club side you've seen in your lifetime?
I'd go for the 2011 Barcelona team who beat Man U in the Champions League final
at Wembley. They swatted aside and totally outplayed a very good United team.
The holy trinity of Iniesta, Xavi and Messi all in their pomp. I doubt we'll see a better
club side than that for a very long time.

After doing a similar thing 2 years before in Rome as well. Ferguson’s last united side could easily have won 3 Champions Leagues in 4 years without that Barca team on the scene.
 
So apart from the 2011 Barca team, Barnet and our own 2010 play off winners 😉 I would also go for the AC Milan side of the 90's with Gullit, Van Basten, Maldini, Rijkard. Baresi etc. Three Champions Leagues and a team to rival but not quite pip the greatest Barca sides.

Rusty - I would have that Milan side as the greatest myself. Baresi is my all time favourite player.
 
Ghosts, I wouldn't argue with that although I'd slightly favour the 2011 Barca. But Milan were one hell of a side.
Baresi was just sublime. As was Maldini
 
Live , Liverpool 1976-1977
League Champions, FA Cup runners up and European champions and I still managed to watch the proper Pool somehow?
 
I would say our 09/10 team was amazing. Achieved something we could only dream of. Unbiasedly though, United's treble winning side under Fergie (99?) was great. That come bacj vs Bayern as well. Loads to chose from though
 
That Paisley Liverpool team in the late 70s that had Kenny Dalglish, Ray Kennedy, Jimmy Case, Graeme Souness,Terry McDermott and Steve Heighway in it. Won shedloads of games and scored goals all over the shop.

The Leeds 7 Southampton 0 game from 1972 is on YouTube,I’ve never seen a team showboat like that before or since, it was almost cruel on Southampton,I remember seeing it on MOTD at the time and thinking this is a team at the height of their powers! The last 12 minutes is where the display begins.
