There is a saying, ‘to whom much is given, much is expected’. However, this seems not to be the case when one analyses the performances of the football clubs from England compared with opposition from Europe...Read more here http://.com/newsthread?thread=1110 |

English league is highly competitive unlike other leagues. It may not produce the best teams but it is the best league. |

ascaris: Nigerian league is more competitive than EPL. Anyone can win the Nigerian league title. Does it make Nigerian league the best? |

[color=#000099][/color] Debroslink:You are looking at champions league but even with that, EPL has produced three diff. winners in Liverpool, Man utd and Chelsea since 1992 more than any European league. Even when you look at the whole history of the competition, it has five diff. winners (Aston Villa and Nottinghamp Forest) more than any league you think is the best. Have a look at the appearances of the EPL teams in the semis of this competition and you will be convienced EPL is better than your Madrid & Barca league called Liga Primera. |

Isn't this the op who said Hazard is average because of a not so good outing against Psg? If you are the one,my question is Neymar average after spending 80mins in Zabaleta's back pocket? Back to the topic Epl is the most competitive league in europe. |

tuffgongjo: Explain how epl is the most competitive league in europe? Cc ascaris |

ollah1:Firstly check out the points between the first,second$third over the last 5seasons between the top 3or 4 in epl,bundesliga$la liga. Check the shocking results. Even the number of goals scored by players in the leagues. 1 Like |

tuffgongjo: How many teams have won the epl Is the last 8 years? |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by tuffgongjo(m): 10:40pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
ollah1:3. |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by Nobody: 10:47pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
tuffgongjo: The epl you called a competitive league has only one team left in europa league and maybe one left in CL. Where's the competition? |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by tuffgongjo(m): 11:03pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
ollah1:Are we talking epl or europe here? If you want to run analysis about a league will it be based on just one season? In the last 5years @least one has gotten to the Semi final or A̶̲̥̅♏ I wrong? |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by Nobody: 11:09pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
tuffgongjo: You can't tlk about a league and ignore European competition they participate in. In your words, just one team in the semis for 5 years and no EPL team won the El. |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by tuffgongjo(m): 11:16pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
ollah1:We are comparing local stats here not the inter league competition(just like saying why is US a better place than naija will you bring in how US donate to other nations?)And are u sure no Epl team has won the EL? |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by Nobody: 11:38pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
tuffgongjo: Donation is different from this. Every year there is competition locally and internationally. It's rare to see a bundesliga fan watch la liga or a serie A fan watch Epl and like that. How would you expect a Ligue 1 fan to watch teams from all round europe play? Aint it the European competition? If as a Ligue 1 fan and I watch this European competitions and certain teams keep failing there I will assume the league is weak. Only chelsea has won it in recent times and it's only chelsea that has been consistent in CL. So it's fine saying chelsea is the only team in epl worth the discussion |

ollah1:Even talking about UCL except Barca$Real which other team from spain has been consistent? B4 Atletico last season,the last spanish team to make the semis outside the above named teams is Valencia$that was in 2001 I guess. |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by Nobody: 11:57pm On Feb 27, 2015 |
tuffgongjo: Nope Villareal in 2006 |
Re: Three Matches, Two Losses At Home For EPL Teams Means They Are Overrated by tuffgongjo(m): 12:03am On Feb 28, 2015 |
ollah1:Thanks for the reminder,but what makes the epl d most competitive is the Unpredicability of results,drama,intensity etc. |

tuffgongjo: It's everywhere. No team is super guaranteed of winning his next match. Wasn't Mourinho praised for his success? What did he achieve in Spain? He won just three trophies in three years? He also went trophyless. He just the highest humiliation of his career there against an arch rival. He lost at home. All these things never happened to him anywhere. EPL is all about hype. |
