Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson believes Spanish giants Barcelona are at a 'tremendous peak'.
The Catalan club disposed of the English champions 3-1 in the UEFA Champions League final last weekend and Ferguson admitted that his Red Devils were beaten by a much better team who are right at the top of their game.
"They are at a tremendous peak in the cycle of their team - you get teams who elevate themselves to that status and I think Barcelona are that team. We were well beaten," he told Inside United.
