We end the year as the fourth best team in Europe. http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/uefarankings/club/index.htm And top English club in Europe. Rightly so, as back to back Champions.
Any list which has Arsenal 6th and Dortmund not even in the top 10 needs to be laughed at. Also, Valencia are currently 9th best in La Liga but also 9th best in EUROPE?? I'm smelling some fish... or maybe it's just Platini-logic.

Thats just for this season so far, surely. Or City would no where near the top 10, nor would Arsenal or Atletico.
To be fair I've always thought of Chelsea as No 1 in Europe! T think the statisticians have got it wrong!
