Debroslink:


So EPL is more competitive because dead clubs like N.Forest and Aston Villa have won it before?

coogar:


how come they are no dead teams in spain that have won it before?

coogar:


so how come only 2 clubs have won the champions league in the history of la liga? where's the strength? if you remove barca and real madrid from the equation, la liga has no history in europe! EPL have 5 different champions league winners and it could have been more were they not banned from playing in europe between 1985 and 1990.

Debroslink:


We are talking of best league currently, and you are digging up 1970s and 1980s data to back up your analysis?

homesteady:

La liga - 15 UCL won, 9 Europa League
EPL - 12 UCL won, 7 Europa League!

coogar:




and this is the mistake most people make....

you have la liga where the top 2 teams have 95% pass mark, the 3rd best team has 80% and others have 30%. EPL have the top 4 teams at 85%, the other 16 teams at 70% each. which of the 2 leagues have the highest overall strength? even a kid of 5 would tell you EPL is the most competitive league in the world.

Debroslink:


French league is the most competitive in Europe. Far more competitive than EPL. But La Liga is the best

spanish sides have won 6 europa cup in the last ten years

coogar:


na yam?

SIRcumalot:

Lineker can't tell the difference between strongest teams and strongest league.
The fact that la liga contains the two best teams currently doesn't automatically mean they have the strongest league.

coogar:


europa cup is not taken seriously in england. it's a distraction from the league position's prize money. the only time chelsea took it serious, they won it in flying colours.

coogar:


even currently....in the last 10 years.....pool, chelsea & man utd have won it. that's still 3 teams versus la liga's 2.

anything you wanna say to that?



logic is a problem for la liga fans.
the 15 UCL won by la liga is by 2 teams, i repeat 2 teams.
the 12 UCL won by EPL are by 5 teams.

the strength of a league is the number of top performers there not the frequency of one team in it. barca can win UCL 100 times and la liga wouldn't be the strongest league in the world. the league is about 20 teams, not about 2 teams.

AdeLaNa1:
Haha, i know am a lil bit late but ur term of ELEPHANT AND RABBIT is just down to pure ignorance of u trying to ridicule the EPL in anyway u can.

Oya take a look at LaLiga. We ve Madrid and Barca. We can add Athletico to the mix but we all know dey'll never smell another LaLiga title in d nxt 10 yrs. Valencia and Sevilla are both Europa league products and shoyldn't even be considered.

Bundesliga nko?? There is only one team. Dortmund tried to challenge dem. Hell they even did a double over Bayern. Buy two seasons later, Two of Dortmund's best players now play for Bayern. Dortmund is struggling to avoid relegation from Bundesliga. Now its Wolfsburg trying to mount a challenge. They did a double over Bayern, and even won DFB Pokal. Nxt season they'll probably reach quaters of the UCL and finish 2nd in Bundesliga while giving Bayern wahala all season. Then Bayern ll come and poach De Bruyne and two of their brst players and then Wolfsburg ll become obsolete.

And Serie A?? Lol. The funniest of dem all. 1st it was Milan, Inter & Juve contending for the title every season. Then Juve cheats their way to the title. They get fined and even get relegated for it. Fast forward two seasons later and they re back lifting the Serie A. Now every season na only dem for Serie A. Inter is now obsolete, Milan is dead and gone, Napoli?? Lool.

Or is it Ligue 1 where PSG had 7 penalties in 9 matches between March 1 and April 30 and their closet rivals who was topping the league den was having clean goals ruled out for offsides dat weren't even there.

In EPL, there are 7 top teams all vying for a place in Europe while causing problems for each other in d process. And out of dat 7, dere are 4 contending for d title.

So bruh, u need to think deep, reflect on some of ur points and take a look at other leagues b4 u call the EPL an Elephant and rabbit league.

Pipe dream
Coogar has sidestepped your request stylishly and is still arguing.
Maybe you need to shout or type in bold text to catch his attention.

homesteady:


And are you the president of FIFA to decide on which criteria is the best for rating?

3 Italian clubs have won it, should we also say it is better than la liga?

2 teams? are they also the clubs dominating Europa League?

Dadehmola:

Inter, milan and ??
I don forget..

the old ladies - Juvie!

LMAO! Easier to wait for my Aba brothers than cooger when he's arguing.

leggo:

I'll forgive you this once since you seem to have switched my metaphors for the 2 leagues.

homesteady:


see his full tweet -
-We might have to stop pretending that the Premier League's the strongest in the world. Most entertaining it may be, but La Liga is stronger.
-And it's not just Real Madrid and Barca. Other Spanish teams have won the Europa League 6 out of the last 10 years.

Now 7 out of the last 11 years, because he tweeted that since October last year!
and 5 out of the last 10 years in UCL!

With your honest mind what can you conclude from this?

SIRcumalot:

What is the incentive for an english team to perform in the europa league ?
We saw everton try to compete last season and they tumble down league ranking costing them money.
Am sure you know the paltry amount that is shared among the other la liga clubs so you understand why sevilla go HAM in this tournament.

PietroRico:
These Barcelona fans are some of the most irritating people on this board. .. Walahi

coogar:
EPL is the best league in the world.
barca are the best team in the world....

the league is not about the top 2 teams.....it's the overall strength of the 20 teams in a league that we are talking about. la liga is not stronger than EPL but barca are stronger than anyfc club in the EPL. if any of you la liga fans cannot understand this fact that you shouldn't be watching football at all.......

leggo:

Automatic entry into the UCL should be enough incentive. You think Everton , arsenal and Tottenham would not give an arm and two legs to reach the Europa league final?
