What does not take much statistical analysis to figure out is that Barcelona are Europe's current best team.
Their success over the past few years has been astounding - three consecutive La Liga titles and two Champions League titles in three years prior to last season.
Like Spain at international level, Barcelona may lose the odd match, but over the course of a season their win percentage will be much higher, and they place themselves more consistently in positions to win trophies - in semi-finals and finals.
Blokhin's right, the best team does not always win, but Barcelona prove they do so with unerring regularity.
As a result they sit atop the Euro Club Index, almost 100 points clear of La Liga rivals Real Madrid.
In third and fourth place sit last year's top Premier League clubs, Manchester United and Manchester City respectively.
Last season's Champions League finalists find themselves in fifth and sixth, although Chelsea sit beneath Bayern Munich, despite their penalty shootout victory.
The only other English side in the top 10 is Arsene Wenger's Arsenal, who sit ninth, just below Borussia Dortmund and FC Porto, and marginally ahead of Atletico Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk.

The fact that La Liga is such a two team league seems to be helping the PL, if you aren't on Barca or Real they are starting to come over. ie, Silva, Mata, De Gea, Torres, Michu, P. Hernandez, etc

Partly true but you have to remember that 3 of those left over financial issues more or less and De Gea + Torres were sold for really high prices which could of happened in any league. Michu's team are relegation contenders, that makes sense to what you're saying
