Best side in Europe

Statistically, for now at least. Worth shouting about whilst it lasts I think.

I'd be interested to understand how they work that out given we beat the "best team in the world ever" 7-2 at home and that table says our away record is better...

Not being funny, but any system that reckons we're the best team in Europe when we're not even top of our national league is fairly obviously flawed.

It works on averages. Villa win our game in hand and we're top, which combined with performances so far gives us the lead.

Whoscored is taken seriously, and whilst we're (possibly) not the best team in Europe, I'm going to enjoy this whilst it lasts.

Maybe it takes into account quality of opposition, too? Can't be too many teams that have already twatted both the domestic league champion and cup winner.
