Debate Topic, Part Eleven

Topic
For as long as I can remember Brazil’s 1970 World cup winning squad has always been proclaimed as the best ever team. As the years passed I have tended to view the 1958 squad as a better squad.
World Soccer’s Eric Batty analyzed this very question in 1970.
After reading the attached article, what is your view on the matter?
