Whats Changed? the PL is still a far superior leage to Serie A, which was the point.

Oh, right, I forgot, you have that GB mentality, where one data point is purely indicative of an entire data set despite mountains of data proving otherwise. I suppose Amedola Lookman (another player who couldnt hack it in the PL) further proves the point after yesterday then, yes?

A league that spends as much as the other league major leagues combined is better? No way.

Btw Chelsea are closer to Championship than they are Champions League. Pipe down a bit.

I've always claimed the league is better, not my team. That part is still wildly true.

I've acknowledged were shit this year on several occasions, so the second part means nothing to me. Speaking of pipe down, Yall win a local trophy in a b league and think you're hot shit. Fifa got you mad hyped for no reason, GB.

In fairness, I think it ranks closer to

England

Italy
Spain/Germany
Netherlands
France.


Italy, post the juventus domination, has become at least somewhat competitive. Spain. And Germany are both two horse races (typically) with movements beneath. Netherlands is a blast to watch, and France is, competitively, a joke.

I can see that argument from a competitiveness perspective. I was thinking more of the amount of top talent in each league, even if it is concentrated in 2 or 3 top teams.

Oh, in terms of top talent, it's probably more:

Spain
England

Italy
Germany

....

Everyone else.


Liga has the best players individually, but the quality of the league is extremely top heavy.

I find the Bundesliga the most entertaining then followed by La Liga. I dont watch either that much currently though. The Premeire league this year is down, and I actually think any of City/Arsenal/Liverpool/Villa can win it.

Son made Trippier look like me defending one on one yesterday. Roasted him like a turkey.

City are a train wreck. :laugh:

Scary scenes at Bournemouth with Luton captain, Tom Lockyer, collapsing away from the play. He is alert after being taken to hospital. This is the second incident he has had; the first happened during the Luton's playoff run to get promoted and he had some sort of surgery afterwards. Might be time to step away from pro football, Tom.

Cardiac arrest twice in a year is unfortunate. Start working on your coaching license.
