Top League Comparisons

[HuSsAiN]

i watch EPL every week, i actually follow all 3 leagues every week. Like i said its not AS exciting as it USED to be. Notice the key words in highlights
i wonder if u guys actually watch or just see highlights?? i see the same patterns in every EPL game, sometimes i get dizzy from the ball bouncing from one side to another, too many long balls, and ALOT of deflection goals. Overall its fun to watch but its not complete football....which is why England's national team has not been competitive in more than a decade. Thats a reflection of their league.

The English National team has got nothing got to do with the league. Infact, the english national team is one of the best, just haven't got a coach that can fit the right players for the tactics.

In EPL, you get different type of teams.. you have teams that can play passing way, or play classic 4-4-2. or long-ball tactics.. there's different varation.

To be honest, I think this is THE most exciting season in the EPL. We are more than half-way through the season, and yet we don't have a clear indicator on whos going to win the league. Is it Arsenal? Chelsea ?? Despite having defensive frailites, no-one could possibly rule out Manchester United yet.
Then you have the 'fourth Champions League spot' , in which Liverpool will still be favourites, but can anyone rule out City,Aston Villa and Tottenham yet?? Honestly, you can't predict the top 7 teams that will finish in May.
Then you have the relegation battle, in which nearly 8 teams have same amount of points, and you can say Portsmotuh are guranteed to go down, but the other two teams to go down? No-one will predict, because Premiership is so tight. If you win two games, your in mid-table, and if you lose two games, then your rock bottom.
There's this unpredictibality about this league, Who predicted Birmingham to be in the top-half? It's because they deserve it for conceding very little goals(Only Chelsea and MUFC less i think).
Also, many of the top teams have lost aready.. Chelsea and Arsenal both ahve lost 4, and Manchester United have lost 5 (more than whole of last season), and Liverpool have lost alot, can't rememeber how much exactly.
It's not a surprise that every year in CL, the top english teams progress usually to the final.
EPL is certainly the best league.. and LA Liga would be second.

the premier ship has gone downhill this season. the fact that arsenal is topping the table with wengers kindergarden players shows that. man utd are weak this year(though they will beat the shit out of millan on counters). chelsea, well they are chelsea. and look at liverpool, they have been horrible all season yet they are still just one point off 4th. you know what happens if you play like liverpool in serie A? you end up right above the relegation places.the EPL is still the best though. and serie A is second. LA LIGA is nothing with real and barca. when we watch an osasuna game we can barely watch it with our iranians playing in the team. can you imagine watching osasuna every week if they didn have any iranain? youll die from boredom. its the same story with the other 13-14 teams of laliga.

I will stick to my decision, and i beg to differ bro.

Arsenal are not topping the table. At the moment, its Manchester United, however if Chelsea win their games in hand, they will be ahead..
Liverpool have been horrible, but all the other premier league teams are taking points of each other. maybe with serie a, you won't get as much shocks as they are in the EPL. Every away match is considered a very tough game here. Even if you play the bottom team.

as i mentioned, italy's league has more competition, the 2nd tier teams can beat the top tier any given weak, while in spain and england it is very RARE...

and yes i can hardly watch any of la liga if barca, real and osasuna are not involved

how can it not? they play the same style...yea the players might be from different countries but its the style of play. England hasn't done ANYTHING on the national team stage in decades.....are they still looking for the best coach? They've tried some of the best in the world.

It's very rare 2nd tier teams can beat the top sides???

Aston Villa beat BOTH Liverpool and Manchester United (Anfield and Old Trafford).
Manchester City beat Chelea, and Arsenal.. Also drew to Liverpool at Anfield.

Also, let me not remind you of the bottom teams taking points of top teams (wigan beating cheslea, burnley beating manutd).

Honestly, who were the 'trying' of the best coaches? Ericksson is not a world class manager, he is good, but nothing speical. Cappello is the only one we have that is decent of getting results..

Cl trophies:
La Liga 12
EPL and Italy 11

Plus spanish league is so much more entertaining to watch with lots of attacking play and dominating game play. no other league can match spanish league specially this season the quality is too high, the fact that the top 5 players of the world are in spain speaks for itself.

WHAT DOES IT PROVE?? LA LIGA MORE EXCITING ???
NO HONESTLY ?? LA LIGA MORE COMPETITIVE ??
WHAT DOES THIS STATS ACTUALLY PROVE?

Plus spanish league is so much more entertaining to watch with lots of attacking play and dominating game play. maybe because you don't watch or try to watch other league. no other league can match spanish league specially this season the quality is too high, yea very competitive and close that one team has 15 wins and 4 draws in 19 games. the fact that the top 5 players of the world are in spain speaks for itself. IR proposes all the oil money and SS and PP buy each of the stars for 1 Billion euros, IPL the best league in the world then, eh?

EPL = best in the world, most exciting, most watchable

why?

Any team from the bottom to top can beat each other on any given day. That's what makes it exciting to watch. There is no definite top 4 anymore... Aston villa, tottenham and man city are proving to be as good as the best team this season.

EPL has definiately not gone down hill, those who say that either don't watch it regularly or just think because Liverpool are playing bad that it must be. The reason why Liverpool and Man Utd aren't playing as well, aside from their own problems is that every other team is more challenging.

the majority of the la liga CL wins coming for real madrid with 9 how does that comparison even make sense?

the fact that the top 5 players of the world are in spain speaks for itself.

the fact that you have bastards like perez running the top teams in spain speaks for itself. goes to extreme debt just to bring top players into the team.

your reasoning is beyond retarded. try again

[Adesor Vafaseya]

Overall comparison in history, not whats going on this season....
English Premier League
Tier 1 : Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal
Tier 2: tottenham, aston villa, manchester city
Serie A
Tier 1: Juventus, ac milan, inter milan, Roma
Tier 2: Fiorentina, Genoa, Sampdoria, Lazio, Napoli
La Liga
Tier 1: Barcelona, Real Madrid
Tier 2: Valencia, sevilla, Villareal
Bundesliga
Tier 1: Bayern, Bremen, Schalke
Tier 2: Wolfsburg, dortmund, stuttgart

In Italy: add in Tier 1: Juventus Adesorus Turini

In Germany: add in Tier 1 also (hisrorically): Borussia Moenchengladbach (Golden 70ies with hippie hairs)
in Tier 2: Hamburg SV (early 80ies boombastic and winning European Cup in 1983 versus Juventus Adesorus Turini, Goal by Felix Magath, observed by Adesor Vafaseya's sexy eyes)

Thank you!

Just a question to your obvious bias against the EPL.....

Where do Fabregas (by far the stand out midfielder in Europe this season, just look at his stats before you reply otherwise), Torres, Lampard, Drogba and Rooney fit into your best in the world?

You really live a sheltered life if you think the best 5 players in the world are in Spain.

and even when they won the 66WC, there are many theories that they cheated.

[Farhad-7]

EPL is not as exciting as La Liga. my ass.

honestly i fall asleep trying to watch Xerex vs Osasuna (even with masoud and nekounam) and I enjoy watching bottom of the table teams Portsmouth vs Wolves x 10 more lol

is citys owner any better than perez? or chelseas? or even uniteds, who asks his own players if they can borrow him money so he can pay off the clubs debt??
