I have noticed a lot of people saying this. I disagree and I don't think it is as simple as saying they are the second best. It depends on how they gel also. For me there are 3 teams better. Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Barca may be weaker without Neymar, but they still have a lot of quality. They have the worlds best player in Lionel Messi, Suarez is still a very good player, Busquets, Iniesta, Rakitic, Mascherano, Pique, Alba, all still quality players, add to that Dembele. The front 3 of Barca is still better than PSG just for the fact they have Messi. Bayern may have some aging players but the team is still quality. Lewandowski, Muller, Ribery, Robben, Thiago, Neuer, James, Vidal, Hummels, Boateng, Alaba, Rafinha, Martinez.
