Manchester City is fourth! OPTA club strength list: Bayern rises to seventh, Barcelona beats Real Madrid

Recently, data agency Opta released the latest club strength rankings, with Paris Saint-Germain ranking first with full scores. Opta pointed out that this ranking has benefited from the absolute strength shown by Paris Saint-Germain this season and has almost conquered major European clubs. In addition to winning the Champions League, they also successfully advanced to the Club World Cup final, so it is truly worthy of their reputation to reach the top.

followed by Liverpool, ranking second with a rating of 99.27. Although Liverpool was eliminated early in the Champions League, they performed well in the confrontation with Paris Saint-Germain and won the championship with a huge advantage in the Premier League, Opta gave them high recognition. Arsenal ranked third with a rating of 98.79. Although Arsenal has not won any championship this season, it has performed well in the Champions League and the league and is always in the ranks of championship competition, which also makes the outside world lack a good understanding of their strength. In fact, Arsenal should rank in the top five in the current European League.

Manchester City ranked fourth, demonstrating their overall strength to recover quickly with a 97.98 rating. Despite some controversy, it cannot be denied that Manchester City's recovery in form at the end of the season, coupled with Guardiola's command and management reorganized lineup, make the team's strength still remarkable. Just time, they can get back to their state.

The fifth position is occupied by Spanish giants Barcelona, and Opta gives them a rating of 96.89. Undoubtedly, Barcelona is one of the most competitive teams this season, with their outstanding performance in the Champions League semi-finals and defeating Real Madrid in domestic games, and their competitiveness is commendable. If Barcelona can maintain such a competitive state, they are expected to continue to move forward in the future.

Real Madrid ranked sixth with a rating of 95.41. Unfortunately, Real Madrid is disappointing this season. Not only has it failed to show its dominance, it has also been crushed by other giants and even suffered a crushing defeat in the Club World Cup. If you want to change the status quo, Real Madrid will seek lineup upgrades during the offseason, otherwise it may be difficult to get out of the dilemma next season.

Bayern Munich ranked seventh with a score of 95.16. Although this Bundesliga giant has maintained a certain degree of competitiveness, its performance has fluctuated in recent seasons. It often collapses in the face of top teams, and effective adjustments are needed. Chelsea ranks eighth with 94.89 points. Although it also has good overall strength, it lacks the test of strong enemies in the near future. Fortunately, it is about to face Paris Saint-Germain, and its true level will be revealed at that time.

Aston Villa performed well this season, ranking ninth with a rating of 94.79. They successfully entered the quarterfinals in the Champions League and defeated Paris Saint-Germain. Its hard power made them enter the top ten. Finally, Newcastle ranked 10th with a rating of 94.73. What do you think about this list of club strength selected by Opta?
