I think it's bombastic twaddle. Why's writing history better than making it? If anything, I'd say the opposite.

And can any team make history?

I'm inclined to agree, it doesn't really make sense.

What about a shit team, they can make history too. Just about shitness rather than greatness.

Sounds like you should send in your alternative version:

"Any team can make shit history. It takes a great team to make great history (and write it)."  Wink

Perhaps but Oscar Wilde's original quote makes more sense, given that he was a writer:

"Any fool can make history, but it takes a genius to write it"
