Each week, I aggregate a World Club Top Ten lists from the view of the staff at World Soccer Reader. I always start the discussion with my knee-jerk list.
To get any conversation started, I throw a list together as quickly as possible, send it out, and let people yell at me for being dumb.
This is how dumb I was after today’s matches:
1. Barcelona
2. Chelsea
3. Real Madrid
4. Juventus
5. Bordeaux
6. Manchester United
7. Lyon
8. Sevilla
9. Estudiantes
10. Manchester City
Others: Tottenham, Inter, Arsenal, Benfica, Porto, Fiorentina, Sao Paulo, Dynamo Kyiv, Hamburg, Rubin Kazan, Bayern Munchen, Liverpool, Velez Sarsfield, Palmeiras, Marseille, Club America, Bayer Leverkusen
The “others” are slightly ordered and mostly thrown in there to stimulate conversation. I’m probably missing clubs. Does PSV deserve consideration? How about Shaktar?
Please, drop some knowledge. On me.
