What team plays the most attractive football

Well i don't know every other team but the ones i know well and like in order:

1) Barcelona - They are awsome at passing the ball and keeping calm while under pressure, they never panic and their moves are so slick! Their flicks and tricks are not for show, they are part of Barca's style and boy is it affective!

2) Villareal - Ok, this is based on their last season displays and when they played Arsenal in the 2nd leg of the Champions League they never gave the ball away, they shifted it about quickly and in style. Other games they were also impressive but mainly in CL

3) Arsenal - A few years back they would of been top of the list as they use to attack in numbers within seconds, pass, run, pass, run, pass, finish into empty net. They can't play that style aswell now but with Fabregas & Henry the side still plays beautiful football when they are on fire.

99) Chelsea - They spent soo much money and have players like Robben, J.Cole, Shevchenko, Ballack & Drogba who all play beautiful football but why can't they play beautiful football as a team? Only Mourinho will know that one.

i like breman as a team cause they attack all the time aswell

even you couldnt say liverpool

I find Barcelona incredibly tiresome to watch, perhaps through no fault of their own.

Every time I see them I just feel like I'm watching a repeat of the week before where a team conceeded 70% of the possession and allowed them to score 3 goals.

Much rather watching compact teams with several strings to their bows like Valencia. They can attack through the middle with patient possession, or they can break down the wings, or they can show some telepathy with the front pairing. Or, like Barca, they can rely on that moment of magic from a single player.

Like I said, perhaps it's not Barca's fault, but every single Barca match is a repeat of it's self these days.

Liverpool play nice style at Anfied a lot of the time, but they don't make top 3

Trust me, Barcelona don't rely on Ronaldinho i have seen Barca many times play and many of their goals don't go through him!
Barcelona are nicest to watch when in the Champions League.

I never said Barca rely on Ronaldinho. I said that every single one of there matches seems to be a replica of another. The only time the monotony is broken is when they play a Valencia or a Real Madrid.

I saw them against Valencia... when Valencia got their goal Valencia just defended and defended and kept the score 1 - 1

You can see why Barca play attractive football... Deco, Ronaldinho, Messi & Eto'o and then you got the others who play 2 touch passing

I like Lyon as well. Pure athleticism and such a great team.

So basically you're saying they'e too good for the oposition they've been facing within the league?

There's definate value in the team they've constructed. To be able to play the way they do together.

Yeah i forgot about Lyon, last season in the CL they scored some great goals like Fred's flick thru the legs and then scored, Carews backheel past Cassias & they also gave Milano a run around!

in each league:

ENG: Arsenal
NL: Ajax
FR: Lyon
GER: Bremen / HSV
IT: Milan
SP: Barça
PO: Sporting

Was that at me?

If so, then yeah, I guess I do. It's personal opinion at the end of the day. Barca may play great football - I won't dispute that for a single second. But I'm not entertained by them in the same way that I am by Valencia? Most attractive football really is debatable. Is a Barca wondergoal as good the 6th time you see it as it was the first? Personally, Valencia's goal at the Nou Camp recently is as attractive as anything I've seen Barca produce in a while.

It's the same case with Arsenal aswell IMHO. Yes, they probably do play the most attractive football in the country, but I'm certainly not entertained by it, so it's not attractive as far as I'm concerned. I find West Ham - on form - a more enjoyable spectacle, despite not being on the same level.

and they have played possesion football before Riikard & Co.

My top 6 in no order:

Barca
Arsenal
Lyon
Bremen
Az
Milan

Yup, that was at you Obispo.

I can agree with what you've said. It's a personal thing and who is anyone to tell us what we should find more appealing?

I personally like watching the Bundesliga from time to time, a league that many Brits find worthless.

On the same side, the EPL is touted by many as the most entertaining league around, and I can't be bothered to watch if the big 4 aren't involved.

The big 4 dont always play the best football

Barça, Lyon & Sevilla play good football.

only seems that way because they are normally better than the teams they are playing against so have to break down a bus which is difficult in every match... the big 4 teams do play the best football and id even say they do so comfortably over the rest

Lol @ a Certain Poster

1. Barca
2. Lyon
3. Bremen
4. Real. Zaragoza
5. Sevilla

Depor play well, especially at home.

Boro,

I enjoyed the defeat of Chelsea at the Riverside...but still it was the presence of one of the big 4 that brought the performance out of Boro.

I do watch out for Roca now and then however, even if it's Boro against a 'smaller' EPL club.

Bolton v. Aston Vila just doesn't spark my interest though, even if they have some good players.

I look out for Newcastle too. They're just interesting to watch, so much money put in and so little results...

yep but u are just incredibly biased lrd... already this season liverpool have scored enough great goals to fill the goal of the season quota ourselves... add to that two of the greatest cup finals in history in the past two years and u don't have a very strong case at the minute with regards to liverpool

That was really just typical Aimar, Valencia hardly pull of moves like that!
