"
English football has all of the traits that's Italian, Spanish and south American has, but added aspects of speed and unpredictability, making it the best league in the world"
In what way is it more unpredictable than in Spain or Germany, this point is total Tosh to put it mildly, the top 4 are always the same... this will change when clubs like Man City start putting their money to good use maybe, but no unpredictability there. Any unpredictability visa vi Liverpool matches is due to slack defending and a lack of passion, hardly good traits for a top 4 team in the "
best league in the world".
On the other hand in Germany we go into the last week with three teams all able to win first place. Granted there is some unpredictability in the bottom 4 in the EPL but it's not like these teams are really EPL teams in the mold of the top 4 they are more like Championship teams on sufferance.
So I think we can rule out unpredictability on at least the fact that the other leagues are at least as unpredictable, Getafe Vs Real Madrid or Hoffenheim Vs Bayern were unpredictable matches.
Speed ? Yes, of course in the cold climate of our Country speed is easy, not so in Spain, Italy, South America where the heat stifles that ability, still though these leagues can be equally as exciting and entertaining if somewhat less pacey.
Despite this teams like Barcelona are just as pacey as Man Utd or Liverpool, players like Henry can bring that kind of speed to a club.
"
its the pace of the game only the best players in the world can have a successful career in English football the ones that cant cope have moved on = milan baros,diego forlan"
This would make sense if 60% of the Premiership wasn't made up of Foreign players..., In addition I can count on two hands the amount of English players who were successful overseas... So this idea once again is complete tosh.
"
our league kick ****, end off it is more exciting to watch, itailan football is so predictable, spainish football is a two team league, england is amzing, thts why we own in europe, best players, best fans and greatest managers"
1) More exciting to watch... have you seen a Stoke or Newcastle game
? To be fair I tend to find the top 8 teams in each of the major leagues in Europe tend to be the most exciting, Most of the EPL teams are boring as ***** to watch as with all the leagues.
2) Hahahahha Spain a two team league ? Oh really that'll be why Barcelona came 3rd last year ? The truth is there are 6 teams in the Spanish league who have a regular chance of winning; Real Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla, Athletico Madrid, Villarreal, Valencia.
3) We "own" Europe because we have the most money and players have migrated here to play, though this means we have the best 4 teams in Europe, it also means English players have less of a chance getting game time and as a result we have a flagging international team, David Beckham and Owen Hargreaves are the only English players to have any direct foreign league experience, We have consistently been getting to the 2nd stage of international competitions and losing.
England as a nation haven't reached a Semi Final game since 1990 for the World Cup and 1996 for the Euro's Indeed we didn't even qualify for the last Euro's... So if anything the EPL and the money it has bought has done nothing for the national game, and may have even done it harm
So yes it may be the "best" whatever that is but a leave it up to you to decide if it's a good thing for English Football ?
Foreign players spice up the league and adds variety I don't think I'd want to lose that but on the other hand the top 4 teams are strewn with foreign players and foreign youth players and one wonders if we shouldn't manage this better in order to make English football better even if it's at the expense of the EPL's Top 4.
