wht r u nt sayin? Laliga is gud bt nt competitive, it's equivalent to scottish league. In d history of spanish league, not more dan 10 teams hv won d title, unlike in English league were u hv over 20 teams crowned champions @least once in dier history. I bet u dont knw d names of 10 coaches(Granada, Betis, Levante, Celta vigo & co) in ur so called best league. Tink of competitn, den talk of Epl & ligue 1. Even naija league is more competitive dan La liga.
I think Man U has won the Epl more times than other teams combined for the past 20 years.
Ligue 1 competitiveness started just after Lyon relinquished dominance few years ago.




Talk about competition talk about the German Bundesliga.

Ancelotti: We have no special plan for Neymar


The Real Madrid boss believes it is futile to focus on stopping individuals in Saturday's Clasico and admits he is happy to see Barcelona earmarked as favourites

Carlo Ancelotti has ruled out any specific tactical plans to nullify the threat of Neymar in Saturday's Clasico clash between Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The Brazilian is poised to make his debut appearance in Spain's most anticipated fixture, but Ancelotti believes it would be futile to focus on a plan to stop the 21-year-old when the Blaugrana are blessed with a wide array of attakcing talent.

"We cannot think of a plan to rein in Neymar because if there is one for him, we must have others for [Lionel] Messi, Alexis [Sanchez] and [Andres] Iniesta," he told a press conference.

Barcelona are favourites for the fixture despite not having beaten Madrid since 2011, but Ancelotti believes that could work to his side's advantage.

"I do not know who is the favourite. Everybody thinks that is Barcelona and for us this is not bad," he continued.

"The timing is good for us. The match is very difficult but last week was good and we improved a lot in all aspects. We can do well in the Camp Nou.

"I have confidence in them. The last time they played at Camp Nou (a 3-1 victory in the Copa del Rey in February) was a great game. We are very excited.

"The key is to have courage and personality to play football, not only to defend. We need character to go to Barcelona and try to play."

JMOI: The 167th La Liga 'Clasico' between Barcelona and Real Madrid at the Nou Camp on Saturday could be the ideal stage for Gareth Bale and Neymar to show they are worth a combined price tag of almost £135 million.

Or, as is more likely, one of the most intense rivalries in football and a match watched by hundreds of millions around the world will again showcase the peerless talents of Barca's Argentine World Player of the Year Lionel Messi and Real's Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, fans in Britain will have to be content with 75 minutes of fun and frolics - archaic scheduling laws mean that no live football can be shown on UK TV between 2:45pm and 5:15 pm, as it clashes with the standard 3pm fixture list; as such, viewers on Sky Sports will see their coverage begin 15 minutes after kick-off.

Leaders Barca dropped their first points of the campaign with a 0-0 draw at Osasuna last weekend and victory for Real, as well as providing a huge confidence boost, would put them level with their bitter rivals on 25 points from 10 games.

Wales winger Bale replaced Ronaldo as the most expensive player in history when he joined Real from Tottenham Hotspur for a fee of £86m in the close season, while Barca paid some £49m to lure Brazil forward Neymar from Santos.

Bale's first weeks in the Spanish capital have been disrupted by injury but coach Carlo Ancelotti hinted that the 24-year-old could feature from the start against Barca after coming on as a second-half substitute in Wednesday's 2-1 Champions League victory at home to Juventus.

Neymar, 21, has shown glimpses of the brilliance that has served his country so well in recent years - he scored the goal against Atletico Madrid that secured the Spanish Super Cup at the end of August - without really catching fire.

Saturday's match will also give Barca coach Gerardo Martino and Ancelotti their first taste of Spain's 'Clasico'. Argentine Martino and Italian Ancelotti, both hugely experienced and unlikely to be fazed by the occasion, are still tinkering with squads they inherited from Tito Vilanova and Jose Mourinho in the close season.

Ancelotti's task has been complicated by the arrivals of a host of new faces along with Bale, including Spain playmaker Isco and midfielder Asier Illarramendi, and Real have been less than convincing in several La Liga outings this term.

Although they won their opening nine matches, one short of the La Liga record held by Real, Barca have struggled to break down defence-minded teams despite Martino's attempts to introduce a more direct style of attack. Whatever happens on Saturday will not necessarily be decisive for the La Liga title race but could have a profound psychological effect on the players.

Neymar, for one, is taking it all in his stride. "I think the nerves are the same in all the games you play," he told Barca TV. "I know that it's about a very important 'Clasico' but I think the feeling of having butterflies in your stomach is the same as before a normal match."

Real hold the upper hand in league games against Barca, with 70 victories to 64 since they first locked horns in 1929. Under Mourinho last term, they drew 2-2 at the Nou Camp and won 2-1 at the Bernabeu but surrendered their Spanish title to Barca largely because of a stuttering start to the campaign.

let me help him. the referee gave madrid their 2 last wins. in madrid's last 2 games, bale dived to give madrid a 90th minute penalty against malaga and in the game against juventus roanldo dived to get chelini sent off after the ref had given madrid a controversial penalty. but barca played 2 difficult away games at pamplona and milan and got draws. barca have fared better.

Is this the same team that lost to their arch rivals this season and they come here saying they want to beat barca , you madrid fans must be joking.

Ancelotti will want to play attacking football and if madrid should come all out they will definitely chop it , unless they stay back and hit us on the counter , that's the only chance they got at beating us and i don't think carlo is a man to defend like jose ,he would rather play attacking and lose than defend and win.

Madrid only have one goalscorer and that's ronaldo , when ronaldo isn't scoring , i don't see anyone doing it for them or is it bezema that will score or morrata or di maria- i doubt that . BARCA still have proven goalscorers in pedro , sanchez and messi.

The new guys coming into this one are few for barca while madrid have many ,the likes of isco , illaramedi ,bale;who has hugged the sidelines more than the headlines while barca have only neymar and more-so neymar has adapted perfectly into the team , i don't see madrid getting 3 point in this game , the worst can come out of this is a draw for barca.
