From 1899 to the Dream Team
FC Barcelona was founded in 1899, but the club experienced its most successful years in the beginning of the 1990’s with players like Laudrup, Stoitchov, Koemann, Guardiola and Romario. With coach Johan Cruyff the team won 4 national championships and one European Cup.
A new dream team
At the moment the big discussion in Spain is wether it will be possible for FC Barcelona to surpass the grandeur of the dream team of the 90’s. With players like Ronaldinho, Deco, Eto'o and Messi the club has won two national championships and one Champions League tournament over the last two years.
