Does Roma play the most entertaining football in the world?

Well, ever since Zeman has become manager, Roma have had mixed results, but they are playing excellent football. Very fast, direct, attacking football, which is a joy to watch. For the ones that have watched Roma this season, do you guys agree? Do you agree that they have been the most entertaining team this season?

You guys can also mention teams, that you think have been more entertaining, throughout this season.

I like watching Dortmund more.

Dortmunds counter pressing and quick direct play is more attractiveand Barca had developed a flair for the dramatic with its shoddy defense.

i bet we will see a lot of comments from people who havent even seen dortmunt or roma play enough to make a correct assumption..

Great suggestions Phritz, I've noticed Dortmund don't get much attention when it comes to most entertaining team. Have you watched Roma this season, out of curiosity?

Yeah, I expect that tbh.

2012-2013 Barca are much more entertaining imo

ganso, psg? probably some goallegacy trend, but cmon man

If you like having 3-4 heart attacks per game, then sure.

I hate roma as a club but they have been playing nice this year when I watched them... I don't like how open they are in the back but nonetheless very entertaining to watch...

They've been playing great, from what I've seen, but I only saw 4 or 5 Roma matches this season, while I saw nearly all of Dortmund's so I feel kinda bad when I say:
I prefer Dortmund, since last season they're pretty much the team I like watching the most, and they've gotten even more entertaining with the Reus signing.

Yeah I think so. They are just a tidy bit more entertaining than Dortmund and Barca.

I think the correct way is to say that Roma plays the most attacking football in all of Europe although I do find it attractive for obvious reasons.

For me (and many) Fiorentina under Montella is the most attractive team to watch. It has had all the tactics, free-flowing football, unpredictability and genius within its play to keep me from never missing a game of theirs. Its spectacular.

Barca easily and i'm not just saying that because they are the most obvious choice.

This is not the Barca of last season, all i see this year is conceding 3 and scoring 5 every game

Viola, I'm afraid have declined drastically. After that blistering first half of the season, they really haven't been able to impose heir game on anyone. I'm guessing it's mostly due to drop of form of almost all the players that were playing well at the beginning. Roncaglia, Cuadrado, Gonzalo, Pasquale have all burned out everything they had. Also Aquilani's injury proneness and Borja's relegation fodderness have resurfaced.

If we go just by the first half of the season, I would be inclined to agree with you.

Dortmund in my humble opinion.

Entertainment isn't just in scoring goals. And I know that's not all Barca do but I would still choose Roma over them.

yeah I just can't praise our eternal rivals I'm afraid. Tbh though, I strongly believe that Roma are more entertaining than Barca and bias has nothing to do with it.

Agreed and disagree on some parts.

Yes, Fiorentina aren't as dangerous as they were within the beginning of the season due to burnouts, injuries, individual inconsistencies, lack of balance in some areas along with Montella demanding too much out of some players who don't match his ambition.

Yet that hasn't stopped him and the team from playing that football that entertained within the 1st half. They aren't as potent and are far more inconsistent now, yet the core beauty, tactical variability and early philosophy is retained.

Thing is its just a bad patch of form. I mean they have 36 points and only 7 points behind 3rd. Hopefully they will pick up.

Let me also add that Jovetic has looked poor ever since his return from injury.

yeah the injury destroyed his amazing start to season.

Still think Man U's games when they are chasing a game are the most entertaining.

in a normal environment, Barca when they are taking the game seriously

It will always be hard to say which team plays the most entertaining football in the world.Each fan has his own point of view.Many people understand in a different way the expression of "the most entertaining" and that's why you will be surprised to read their answers.

Some people find spectacular a team which plays counter-attacking, like Real Madrid, AC Milan, Roma, Napoli or Tottenham etc...other people would choose Manchester United because it is always involved in very dramatic games..some would pick Stoke or Newcastle, which use to play tough football and make a lot of professional and unprofessional fouls that are driven by their instincts of warriors.Let's not forget about Barca...there are a lot of fans who believe that 'Tiki-Taka' is the most entertaining style of play.

Consider the above examples as random examples.People are different.What I am trying to say it's that you won't get a concrete answer, and you probably already know this.

Top 5 for sure, but Barca for me
