joeace2020:Guy calm down. The La Liga might have its shortcomings. But u keep calling it awful. Mind u, this awful league is producing anoda UCL finalist in two yrs. Wen last did any team from ur precious EPL produce a UCL finalist? Fact is the other 18 teams in La Liga are crap. But fact remains that the Top 2 are still better than the Top 4 in EPL. Ronaldo and Messi might not score as much if they come to EPL. But they'd still mke waves in d league anyways |

coogar: Ronaldo had almost no winter break, they were in Morocco playing CWC, and then to Dubai to play some meaningless friendlies! If Suarez can score 31 goals without PK'S , not the 1st choice for freekicks and missing about 7-8 games, tell me why Ronaldo won't score more than 40 here? 1 Like |

AdeLaNa1: but that's the point..... the best talents in la liga are all concentrated in 2-3 clubs. imagine the same scenario where kane, costa, aguero, RVP, rooney, hazard, sanchez, ozil are shared by the top 2 english clubs. where do you think the EPL clubs would be finishing every season? how come no other club apart from madrid & barca have won the champions league? in the last 10 years, 3 english clubs have won it. the strength of the EPL is fairly distributed among the 20 clubs. the strength of la liga is within barca & madrid and this is why ronaldo can score 48 league goals in one season. homesteady: ronaldo was here before he went to madrid. his personal best was 31 league goals including pens & freekicks. he couldn't even replicate his form the following year with thugs like shawcross & richard dunne on his case. EPL is not where any striker can score 40 league goals in one season. it can never happen! |

AdeLaNa1: For the last ten years, has any English club won more European trophies than Sevilla and Atletico Madrid? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 12:15am On May 24, 2015 |
homesteady: it's a distraction for the english clubs europa cup is like a disease they love to avoid. they already have an extra competition called the carling cup.....why would they want to play europa when they stand to make more money if they survive in the premier league. this is an example.... http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/swanseas-ashley-williams-admits-relieved-5719871 |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 12:18am On May 24, 2015 |
homesteady:Depends on wst u call European trophies. Both Sevilla and Atletico spend most of their time in the Europa League with Atletico being regulars in the UCL now. So i dont think we can judge based on dat |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 12:28am On May 24, 2015 |
coogar:Thats the point. Madrid and Barca are just too good for the rest of the league. That doesn't mean the league is awful as he claims. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by homesteady(m): 12:32am On May 24, 2015 |
coogar: He left EPL about 6 years ago, Do you expect his development to be stagnant? his 1st year in la liga, he scored 26 goals, but he kept on developing and he now scores 48! If Suarez took Liverpool PK'S and all their freekicks and he didn't miss the 1st 7 games, wouldn't he have scored at least 45 goals? 1 Like |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by homesteady(m): 12:47am On May 24, 2015 |
coogar: Lmaoooooooooooo! This was the same silly excuse that made UEFA to make a new rule that the Europa cup winner will qualify directly for Champions league! But still, all the English clubs got kicked out in the early stages Is there any English club that doesn't want to partake in UCL? Was to qualify for UCL not Van gaal target for this season? Arsenal players celebrating finishing fourth on the table because they qualified for Champions League play off oh |

I remember telling my friends afta last season dat i was happy we didn't qualify for Europa. Playing on Thursdays and having to play on Saturdays is one good way to get players fatigued. We wont ve made top 4 if we were in Europa dis season wit dis our current squad.... 1 Like |

The EPL is over rated, chelsea and arsenal were dumped out by crappy french teams, everton were raped, loserpool sodomized, the only thing helping EPL is the hype. 1 Like |

raumdeuter: la liga is dog awful! la liga teams take europa cup very seriously - it's extra revenue for them especially when they are paid pea-nuts with barca/madrid getting the lion share of the TV revenue. EPL teams hate europa cup. it's an extra burden to them considering the fact they play carling cup(there's no equivalent of it in spain & germany). besides that, the FA have no mercy with their fixtures. you go to europa on thursday night & you are expected to play in the league by sunday noon. EPL teams who go to europa perform below their normal standard in the league. it's a needless distraction that doesn't even pay much, english teams would rather finish high on the league table than pursue europa cup. relegating teams in england make more money than europa cup champions. even when chelsea won it in 2013, they were ridiculed that they won a mickey-mouse cup. na impoverished teams like sevilla, athletico madrid, leverkusen, etc dey celebrate europa. the competition is seen as a curse in england. so shut up already about the number of teams that have won it in spain. la liga is awful - only 2 teams have won the champions league there. EPL is the best - 5 different teams have won the champions league in england. the strength of a league isn't about only 2 clubs. it should encompass the entire teams in the league. when you have 90% of the talents in la liga playing for 2 clubs, it becomes a joke! homesteady: stop flip-flopping & stay in one argument. your initial argument was europa, why are you bringing champions league to it? was it europa cup arsenal celebrated? this was the question you asked....
the european trophies won by sevilla & athletico madrid, which of them is the champions league? if there's none then your rejoinder to my post is irrelevant. english teams take champions league seriously but they don't take europa seriously. stop mixing the two. arsenal qualified for UCL, sevilla/athletico won europa cup. apples & oranges...... 1 Like |

La liga isn't an easy league, to me its stronger dan de EPL, Ronaldo and messi de make de league look easy; just remove both of dem 4rm dat league you go know say no be only madrid and barca sabi win league, last season wey messi and barca no too play well you no see how atletico take grab dia chance ??, madrid barca atletico valencia sevilla villareal dem no be beans., suarez murder both shawcross and dunne 4 epl he went to barcelona den him see say level pass level, wen aguero de atletico him no de even dream about golden boot now him don cum EPL him don be king 4 golden boot race, atletico disgrace our current league champions last season, people like liverpool na besikitas knock dem out 4 europa, fiorentina knock tottenham, dynamo kiev murder everton, den fiorentina dat knocked out spurs got raped by sevilla, aggregate score de read 5-0 so wetin you una wan yarn again, cool down wen man-u go meet valencia 4 play-off you go know how far.. EPL de decieve dia selves with mumu teams de talk say na 6teams de challenge 4 title 2 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 7:48am On May 24, 2015 |
weedtaker: la liga is an easy league. suarez was well-rested when he got banned. besides, he played in fewer competitions last season. there were at least 6-7 days rest for him between his games. he was fresh & he took his opportunities with aplomb. before then, what was his goal stats? suarez was the highest goal scorer in eredivisie before he arrived in january 2011. he scored a miserable 4 goals in 11 games that season. 13 goals in 31 the following year. what's so hot about those numbers? then if you consider EPL rejects like forlan, kanoute, giuseppe rossi, old ruud van nistelrooy all became living legends in la liga. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 7:57am On May 24, 2015 |
weedtaker: if la liga teams come to the EPL, barca & madrid wouldn't even finish in the top 4. they get £150m each from their TV revenue while the other 18 clubs get £30m each. it's this big money that pays the wages of their star players. in the EPL, TV money is shared fairly equally. without £150m to spend, madrid & barca wouldn't have any advantage over the EPL clubs. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by JayKayMaybachz(m): 8:01am On May 24, 2015 |
weedtaker:Bros ah expect better yarns from you... The com3 a time things change... For the past 3 seasons epl haven't lived up to their expectations in europe... that doesn't change the fact... That epl is fvcking competitive I can remember wen bale made a comment that liga was beta than epl... Mourihno vex reply am sharperly He knows epl is more competitive and vigorous than liga, serie a etc That's one of the reasons why some players choose spain... [Barca, Madrid] |

Mind u nistelrooy was a world class centre forward and he left at de peak of his career forlan din't settle well in de EPL, KANOUTE WAS A BRILLIANT forward too in de epl just dat spurs no too strong dat time and berbatov was better dan him wen he arrived, rossi no get chance to play so no jugde am |

@weedtaker tjis our tikitaka will come ghuud next season Look at what happened 2nd part of the season We dominated 96% of the matches we played The only way our opponents were able to get at us, was to pack the bus .... Look for a slight mistake then counter.. Boom dhey score.. . Thanks to mumu valencia shaaa and yeye Jones with his dummy back passes I hope those fools will be relegated to cup games |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 8:08am On May 24, 2015 |
weedtaker: nistelrooy was finished when he left for la liga. he was 30 years of age. he won the pichichi instantly in la liga. no excuses of acclimatization. mention one la liga import that has won the EPL golden boot in his first season in england. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by weedtaker: 8:16am On May 24, 2015 |
coogar:just like i said, he was a worldclass centre forward ( and bro na u finish am?) and wen he arrived in madrid he was one of dia 1st choice striker and formed a great parnership with raul, abi u no see him first season in a united shirt (eredivise striker o) na hit him be o. and back den we no get a CURRENT ronaldo and messi type of player, though i can't remember any la liga dat won a golden in de EPL on his debut season but most of dem are all instant hits michu arguero sanchez and costa are all examples |
