Editors of UEFA.com have chosen their La Liga team of the season, and Atletico Madrid have topped the pile with five players selected.

Barcelona 2008-2009

In 2008–09, Futbol Club Barcelona started a new era with a new manager, former player and FC Barcelona Atlètic coach Pep Guardiola, who led the team to the first Treble in Spanish football history. After selling off high-profiled players such as Deco and Ronaldinho, Barcelona played scintillating football throughout the season, winning the Copa del Rey, La Liga, and the UEFA Champions League. This Barcelona squad is considered as one of the best in history.

What more can you say about this Barcelona side? European champions, La Liga champions and Copa Del Rey winners, all in the first season under the charge of Pep Guardiola. And they didn’t do it by merely winning games, they did it by winning in style, making them perhaps the most universally respected side of the decade.
