I'd places Sir Alex's 1999 treble winning squad as the best team United he's ever had, they had a midfield of Giggs/Scholes/Keane/Beckham, that's as good as any there's ever been, that squad in general had everything in terms of attack and defense too.
Arsenal invincibles also has to go down as one of the Premier League's greatest.
For me City (when all players are fit) are best team in England and in Europe, if City played Liverpool in the Champion League final last season, i believe 7 times out of 10 Liverpool would have lost.
I actually agree with this. But I indicated last 20 years.
98-99 United beat Bayern and Barca in group stages, and Inter, Juve (3 CL finalist in a row at the time), and Bayern in the KOs. Dealt with a strong PL and FA cup competition. I don't think they lost a game in the second half of the season or maybe just 1 in the last 40 or something absurd like that.
Even 20+ years ago, the secret to being a dominant team was having a monstrous midfield and mobile defense.
I don't rate the invincibles. You can't be taken seriously without European glory, imo.
