Rank your top 5 clubs in Europe right this second

1) Barcelona - 15 wins, 1 draw, 0 losses so far in La Liga. They're a machine that has already scored 54 goals in league play so far.
2) Bayern Munich - Slowed down a little since their hot start but 9 points clear in the Bundesliga going into the winter break. They have the best or the second best midfield in the world right now and have only given up 7 goals in league play so far.
3) Juventus - Clearly the best team in Italy right now. Solid defensively, only given up 10 goals so far in league play and have the maestro Andrea Pirlo pulling the strings. I'm also a big fan of Claudio Marchisio.
4) Borussia Dortmund - A lot of people will disagree with me here but they have been the best team in the Champions League so far this year and have recovered very well in the Bundesliga after a slow start. They're 13 points behind Bayern Munich but I think they'll comfortable secure 2nd. The Marco Reus/Mario Gotze combination is starting to click and with Lewandowski, they're great to watch going forward.
5) Manchester United - The best team in England. Robin van Persie was a great buy and their attack has been fantastic -- their defense has been less than stellar though. If they can fix their defense, they may be able to make a run in the CL.
Best player - Lionel Messi, really not even a debate here.
Most underrated - Thomas Muller, 9 goals and 7 assists in the Bundesliga. Probably Bayern Munich's best player thus far.
Most overrated - Hulk the transfer fee Zenit shelled would suggest that he's a top-5 player in the world which isn't even close.
Water and fruit snacks.

I would flip United and Dortmund. Spot on otherwise.

Over the past half season, I'd agree with that. This second, I'd consider ranking United higher. They can now field a serviceable back line.
Underrated: I would (not seriously) consider Anderson for the 20 minutes that he was healthy and in form.

I think your 5 are currently the best in Europe with only Barcelona's spot assured.

I think as far as CL form / prospects go, I'd agree with this as a current "power ranking".
Bayern has looked incredible when I've seen them so far.
I'd put more stock in Real Madrid's CL prospects than Manchester United's though but I also thought Man City would beat Ajax.

Everybody else. I haven't watched much DB though, maybe they are above the scrum.
