Holland No1 by a long shot. I was gonna say England since their win in 1966 was controversial but they don't really qualify for this list. France managed to leave this list by hosting the tournament.

aaah haaaaa!!!!!!!Jinn come on now...they need to be consistent like their youth teams......The senior team has left much to be desired...A lot of promises and hopes,but in the end they come up empty..For as talented as they are, they need to do better........

abeg no vex skeepo...but u should know that most countries eg brazil simply use their youth teams 4 breeding...so many shining stars never make it into the senior team...or if they do...many take years...e.g Bebeto, Giovanni Silva, Fernando Baiano...but 4 some countries Portugal inclusive...their shining stars get almost automatic shirts in the senior team...& then meet up with real warriors @ the WC & get murdered

I don't know if this counts but the Brazilian teams from WC 1982 and WC 1986. Those two Brazilian teams where an absolute joy to watch but they where let down by some suicidal defending.

Hungary in 1954 was far the best team...thay defeat (2-3 vs Germany) in the final was the biggest surprise in wc history.

Brasil 1982 Zico, Falco,Eder and Oscar! and the Dutch team in 1974 are the two best team never to win the world cup! Those of you mentioning Nigeria and Cameroon should be shut! When was the last time these two teams were the best team at a wrold cup?

Yeah you are right. The wonderful Magyars of the 50's were arguably Europes strongest team. Its a pity the did not win then. They probably will never win again.
