Which Team is the best ever english team?

[watsongooal]

You choose

 

[D'Angelo Saxon]

I've chosen.

 

[Northstander]

Liverpool, 70's with Dalglish!!!

 

[rool]

are you talking about an english team with mainly british players? if so I'd say Liverpool 70/80s. 2 or 3? European Cups, and lots of 1st division championship wins at a time when more than 3 teams were in contention.

 

[Life After Bobby]

Got to say Liverpool. Dominated the English and the European game at a time when more than two or three teams were in the running every season. (just noticed that this is not dissimilar to what munster monch has said!)

if arsenal can win the champions league a couple of times, my opinion may change.

 

[Gazwag]

I agree with the Liverpool team, in an era when money didn't rule football.

After their four European Cup wins and one final defeat who knows how many more they would have won in that era but for our teams being kick out of europe after Heysel (sp?)

Also, they were packed with BRITISH PLAYERS

 

[BensGrandad]

Arthur Rowes Tottenham in the 50s or Billy Nicholsons team in the 60s then Arsenal last season.

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

I would agree that even Liverpool at their peak would have struggled against Blanchflower´s Tottenham

I cant believe any team could beat the current Arsenal team more than about 4 times out of 10.

 

[The Large One]

What about the mighty Preston North End team of the 80s / 90s? Unbeaten in the league, and didn't concede a goal when winning the cup. Awesome.

 

[the right footed denilson]

the fact is no-one has ever played with Arsenals pace, power and skill. They woukld blow teams of the past away!!!!!!!!!!

 

[fatboy]

Arsenal, of the teams I've seen.

What about the Forest team that won the European Cup (when it was for the champions) twice?

Saying that, Arsenal have not yet conquered Europe.

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Arsenal always look great in the Premiership, but how many times have failed in Europe now? Against the top teams, they are found wanting repeatedly

 

[Beach Hut]

Liverpool late 70s / 80s were the best team in Europe by some considerable length.

Played superb football especially away from home.

 

[the right footed denilson]

but..on their day the current Arsenal team could beat anyone.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

spurs team of 60s first team to do the double double

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Surprised no mention of Spurs '61, Man Utd '67 or the Nottingham Forest team whose record was just beaten.

I think other then the Man Utd team of the 90's, the teams European record should be not taken into account because the competition was far different back then.

 

[Strike]

Liverpool team of the 70's and the 80s

 

[the right footed denilson]

hang on!
this is 'best ever' team not 'most succesfull'!

 

[graz126]

liverpool. man utd never quite got as dominant, but if they won the league and champs league this year and league again next year then, you would have to say them.
problem man utd have is holding on to arsenals coat tails. and chelsea will also be in the equation.
this arsenal could go on to be the strongest of all. only time will tell.
