Ranking the 5 best clubs in Europe's major leagues so far this season

#3 Bayern Munich

FC Bayern München v Eintracht Frankfurt - Bundesliga

Bayern Munich undeniably boast one of the strongest squads across Europe. The German giants have started their season in a similarly dominating manner, like the previous few seasons.

Bayern Munich have seen a change in coach, with Julian Nagelsmann replacing Hansi Flick. Despite the change, the Bavarians' superb form and team chemistry are still intact.

It goes without saying that having European Golden Boot winner Robert Lewandowski in full flow helps their cause. Leroy Sane firing on all cylinders is a bonus, with the German winger justifying his potential with some powerful displays.

Bayern have scored eight goals in the UEFA Champions League, conceding zero in their first two games. Their goalcount in the Bundesliga is 24 in just 7 games, averaging more than three per game.

#2 Chelsea

Chelsea v Southampton - Premier League

The current UEFA Champions League winners need no introduction. Having already proved themselves as champions of Europe last campaign, Chelsea have kept up their good form in the 2021-22 campaign.

Chelsea have seen a drastic change in their quality and fortunes since Thomas Tuchel took over. The Blues have been more balanced as a squad, with a perfect mix of raw talent and experience in all departments. Thomas Tuchel's tactics are also praiseworthy as Chelsea continue to play some quality football in Europe.

Chelsea are currently the Premier League leaders, with 16 points after seven league games. They are currently major favorites to win the Premier League this season.

#1 Liverpool

FC Porto v Liverpool FC: Group B - UEFA Champions League

Since losing the Premier League title to Manchester City, Liverpool have improved the most to be the top club across all major leagues in Europe. The Reds are unbeaten in the Premier League with 16 points - a point less than league leaders Chelsea.

Jurgen Klopp's men have started the 2021-22 campaign on a strong note, with talisman Mohamed Salah leading from the front. Virgil van Dijk's entry into the first team after a long injury is a big boost for Liverpool and they will hope that the Dutch centre-back can regain his old form soon.

In a group with Atletico Madrid, AC Milan and Porto, Liverpool lead with two wins in two matches in the UEFA Champions League. The Reds will surely be the team to beat in Europe if they continue performing the way they are at the moment.
