The GREAT World Cup Teams from history
Lets be honest there weren't any "Great" teams in this world cup, what do you think the great teams in history have been
My faves
Brazil 1970
Holland 1974
Brazil 1982
Re: The GREAT World Cup Teams from history
The Top Ten IMO would be:
10: England (1966)
9: France (1998)
8: France (1982)
7: Italy (1990)
6: Holland (1978)
5: Brazil (1982)
4: England (1970)
3: Holland (1974)
2: Brazil (1958)

Exactly the Germans were undoubtedly more efficient, but the Dutch were the class of 1974.
If the team of the best individuals won every World Cup, then there would be parties in the streets of London tonight, not Rome ;)
Re: The GREAT World Cup Teams from history

1974 west germany had gerd muller who was the best striker in world cup history

Re: The GREAT World Cup Teams from history
Guys - I am amazed at how many times we all mention England as having great teams. The fact is, the last time England were the best side in the world was about 1950!!
The only reason we won the 1966 world cup was that it was being played in England, and Pele was fouled out of the tournament/injured.
The hype that saw our current team of mediocre underachievers portrayed as some sort of 'golden generation' is the same that sees ANY England team in a top ten. If we are honest with ourselves, there has probably been ten better Brazilian teams than any England team.
Sick of football. Overhyped, diving nancy boys.

We had the best teams period until 1950.
And post 1950 as well as 1966, we were favourites in 1970; where it took the Greatest ever team (Brazil of 1970), The Cat, and a crooked chef to rob us of the Gold once more. ;)
