Barcelona have been one of the greatest clubs in the Champions League era.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Blaugrana<\/em> actually won the last edition of the old European Cup in 1991-92, starting the new era as champions. And while it took them over a decade to really find their footing on the continent, domestically they’ve been incredible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even allowing for a six-year title drought, Barcelona have won an astonishing number of titles in the Champions League era. This includes 16 La Liga titles, 10 Copa del Rey trophies and a further four Champions Leagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This era has been marked by some spectacular players, some of the very best to play in the game in the modern era. But who is the best? Who is even among them? Well, we’ve had a go at ranking the top 10 Barcelona players of the modern era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some truly world-class talents have been left out. But when longevity and impact with Barcelona have been considered, even something like Ronaldo’s amazing 1996-97 season can’t stack up. This is the very upper echelon of football here. Who made the cut?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
