The best league seasons

The highest points totals any club has managed in a single season of these five leagues. Not comparable across leagues without care: a 38-match season offers 114 points and a 34-match one only 102, so the Bundesliga is at a standing disadvantage here. The number of matches is in the table for that reason. These five leagues, top division only, from 2000 onwards. Nothing a club or a player did in a lower division, a cup, Europe or another country is counted here, so a great career spent mostly outside these competitions will look thin or be absent.

The list

Where two are level they share a rank, and the list runs past fifty when fiftieth place is shared, because splitting a tie would mean choosing between them on no stated basis.

Points in a season — the leading 15. Every one of the 50 is in the table below.
