Arsenal 'better' than Brazil as former Liverpool star makes huge World Cup claim

Former Liverpool and Manchester City midfielder Dietmar Hamann has claimed that Arsenal's Invincibles were a better side than the Brazil outfit that won the World Cup in South Korea and Japan.

Brazil, who knocked out a devastated England side in the quarter-final of the competition thanks to a famous free-kick from Ronaldinho, are largely remembered as one of the best international teams ever.

Whilst it's never easy - or necessary right for that matter - to compare international and club sides, Hamann believes that the Gunners' unbeaten side of 2003/04 was a better team than the 2002 World Cup winning squad.
