Once lol Chelsea Liverpool champions League winners in the last ten years. Europa League Chelsea man united the rest have been Spanish

If we look at this season spurs out to Leipzig, Chelsea as it stands are out to Bayern(beat Chelsea and spurs at home)

Liverpool out to atletico Madrid at that moment we're out of form.

City are 2-1 up against Madrid


Just as bad? every league has a actual title race and a race for Europe and a relegation battle.

The marketing this year has been who will get top 5 because city getting banned. Lets put it this way look at the quality of teams in the premier League who has actually performed to their potential with consistency. Liverpool Sheffield United Burnley and Leicester? The gap is 23 points we could end the season with teams in the top 3 with double digits Ls

I agree, however I feel like comparing leagues and cup competitions is a little unfair.

You cannot overlook how strong Spanish sides have been in European competitions for years now..

That's my point at the highest level they are consistently good. We can't even brag about been consistently good in our own league this year.

What's really funny is we were addressing we watch a variety of football we didn't say Spanish League is the best or vice versa we just said watching a range of different leagues is great. I ain't watching real betis Vs getafe the same way I'm not watching Sheffield United Vs Burnley.

We been talking about goat moments across every league it just happens Messi is that good however you man are sooo passionate about Ronaldo you won't even acknowledge he exist which makes it even funnier they can co exist.

And if we keeping it real the quality of the premier League is awful this season city haven't guaranteed 2nd and Liverpool are 23 points clear

Yeah you make a good point BUT also years back 36/37 points used to guaranty you safety but now teams are needing 40+ points to guaranty you that... So whilst big teams maybe underperforming at times. you can also say its the middle to bottom teams are alot more competitive... Which is great to watch, especially when they can trade punches with the bigger teams...

Also, the I think the last game of the season could be winner of West Ham v Villa says up, loser gets relegated, that is drama, so whilst the race for promotion has been weak, fighting for top 4, top 6 and the relegation battle has been great imo....
 
The Championship is the most competitive league in the world and is the toughest too imo...

Teams who just wanna say in the league can find themselves getting promoted, big teams that get relegated TO The Championship can end up near the bottom come the end of the seaon...

You never know who is gonna win on game to game basis and its relentless trying get to the EPL... Then once you do, its like winning the lottery and getting promoted to 'the promised land', its really is a great league...
