Power rankings for European teams could be an enjoyable thread however a lot of it would be as much opinion as for players since only in the Champions League do many teams play each other. There's also Europa League but the results are often more determined by how seriously certain clubs take it. There's the UEFA rankings of the teams that are used to seed CL/EL but it's more based on 3 or 4 past years and, so about as far from the idea of a "power ranking" as you can get. For example, Man City and Juventus would both be ranked pretty low since they weren't that good 2-3 seasons ago but right now they're both pretty clearly top 10 or better sides.

Got fake relegated so in the last 6 years Juve have had 3 with hardly any points since they didn't play in europe. They are ranked like 50 or 60th behind some pretty crap teams. Fiorentina is like 30 spots ahead of us. UEFA rankings suck. Long time ago ESPN would rank the european clubs for american audiences, like the AP poll. But i haven't seen that since 2004 or so.
