Top 10 club football teams of the decade (2010-2019)

#4 Barcelona (2014/15)

Juventus v FC Barcelona - UEFA Champions League Final

Popular notions in football tell you that a good attack wins you matches, but a good defence wins you trophies. While Barcelona's defence in the 2014/15 season was more than decent, it is the attacking talent in this team that stands out.

Any team that has Lionel Messi has been built around the Argentine genius. This team, however, was built around a South American front three of which the little maestro was an integral part. In Luis Suarez, Neymar, and Lionel Messi, Barcelona had found a ready-made formula for success.

Luis Enrique played his part brilliantly by establishing each player's role to ensure that he got the best out of his dynamic front three. With Neymar's trickery and Messi's creativity, Luis Suarez thrived in front of goal, scoring and creating for his partners in crime in his first season at the club. The club finished the La Liga season on 94 points, marginally ahead of rivals Real Madrid.

Barcelona won their second treble of the decade with "MSN". The trio shared an astonishing 122 goals among them through the season, becoming the most prolific trio in Spanish football history. Yet another Lionel Messi masterclass in the semi-finals against Bayern Munich took the Catalans to the final against Juventus, where goals from Ivan Rakitic, Luis Suarez, and Neymar gave the club its second Champions League trophy of the decade.

While Luis Enrique's formula for success became increasingly predictable as the months progressed, his first season at the club saw some of the most exhilarating offensive football of the decade. Attacking trios are a common sight in football, but one of this quality and ability may not be seen again for a long time.

Starting XI: Marc-Andre ter Stegen; Jordi Alba, Gerard Pique, Javier Mascherano, Dani Alves; Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic, Andres Iniesta; Neymar, Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi
