By Far The Greatest Team Football Podcast
By Far The Greatest Team is a football history podcast dedicated to answering one timeless question:
Who is the greatest football team of all time?
From iconic dynasties and legendary tournament winners to cult heroes, forgotten giants, and teams that burned brightly for just a moment, By Far The Greatest Team dives deep into the stories that shaped football’s past — and debates where those teams truly belong in the game’s hierarchy.
Hosted by lifelong football obsessives, each episode blends deep historical research, tactical insight, and story-driven discussion to explore:
- Legendary club and international sides
- Iconic seasons, tournaments, and golden eras
- Tactical revolutions and defining moments
- Cultural impact, myth-making, and legacy
- Underdog stories that rewrote football history
At the heart of the podcast is a unique Greatness Ranking System, where teams are judged across multiple levels — from All-Time Greats and True Greats, to Cult Classics, Edge-of-Greatness teams, and those remembered through nostalgia, context, or controversy. Greatness isn’t just about trophies — it’s about impact, identity, and influence.
Whether it’s Brazil’s brilliance, a one-season wonder, a cup-run miracle, or a team that changed how football was played, every episode asks the same question — how great were they… really?
If you love football history, tactical debate, long-forgotten stories, and arguing about rankings in pubs, living rooms, or online forums — this is the podcast for you.
