English premiere league is so difficult.
even more difficult than Spanish La-Liga.
It's only in the English premier league that you can win the golden boot by scoring only 19 goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo & other great strikers in all their seasons in the premier league never managed to score more than 50 goals in a season.
It's only in the Spanish la-liga that players like Ronaldo & Messi managed to score 80 goals or more in a calender year because of how easy the league is.
And most times the number of goals you score, determines your position on the balon-dor list.
Even players like Negrado & Jesus Navas who flopped in the premier league, became stars when they switched to La-liga.
You're just focusing on the league but ballon d'or considers other factors like champions league, world cup, European championships, FIFA world club cups etc. And so far, it's players from mainly Spanish league that usually have these all round successes. So hope you now understand

Take this your excuse to the cleaners. Many EPL players have tried severally in La Liga without succeeding. Many great EPL players never made in La Liga. EPL is so tough that Man United hardly beat any La Liga team even as small as Real sociedad, Vilareal . EPL is so tough that UCL and Europa is dominated by La Liga . EPL is so tough that Harzard , a famous EPL player can't play in La Liga . EPL is so tough that Thierry Henry failed in EPL.

EPL it's only regarded as the best because of the English media . The English media have made you love it . Because of that you defend them in every possible way .

Players that from EPL that performed in Laliga

Ronaldo
Bale
Beckham
Nistelrooy
Forlan
Modric

The reason to me is because epl is more challenging than Spanish league . In epl a team has four good opponents of almost equal strength besides the few smaller teams that are stubborn. But in laliga is only one solid opponent that a team will face and other few stubborn teams , so you can see the energy, strength etc needed to win each league is different , one is more than the other.
In England , it is never guaranteed that a team will automatically qualify for UCL no matter how , unlike Spain were Madrid and Barca have slots in UCL every season.
I have no doubt that if some Arabs or billionaires pump more into some smaller teams like 4 teams , I am telling Barca and Madrid will not be coming to UCL and winning laliga every day as if they are they only teams in spain

that’s because English premier league is the most difficult league where bottom line team will beat a team topping the league, in Spanish league or Budisliga or Italian serie A n French league you can easily spot who will win the league from January and there are mostly only 3 or four contenders while premiership Leceister city can come out from know where and win league, individual football in premier league they can give you one season after then next one when defenders mount guard on the player he won’t even score like thr previous season, Give Kudos to Manchester United for being the only team that has produced world best in premier league, I am red cheesy cheesy
One miraculous season wey Leceister take win league naim you dey talk as if na regular thing for EPL. Apart from Leicester, mention another team wey don win league like that.

Which defenders dey mount guard when Salah, Henry and Ronaldo dey win back to back to back golden boot?

I think over consciousness on money because of gambling and FIFA is aware. This is why EPL is money spinning.
It used to be pool in those days but now betting companies are everywhere pumping more money into the league.
Sometimes I assume that scripts ard written for some matches. Ronaldo has been the only player that has broken that barrier. Let's give CR7 his due respect.

Michael Owen won Ballondor but u removed him from ur list he played for Liverpool at the time.

Real answer is coincidental, the numbers show that the english league is the best. The english league is the best league but all the other European leagues hate that.

Look athe politics UK left EU and are actually an island off of Europe.

It just happened that the players at the peak play for the prestigious clubs in Europe
Please don't quote me wrongly. If you read my post attentively you will understand that I said Cristiano Ronaldo was the "LAST PERSON" that won the Ballon d'Or since 2008 in EPL. That means for the past 15years no EPL player has won it. A 15years old kid should be sitting for WAEC, NECO or JAMB by now. That's to say EPL is overrated.

All football lovers knows Michael Owen also won the Ballon d'Or. 2001 when he was in Liverpool. But since 2008 no EPL player has won it.

All these Barca fan self..

La Liga has always been a three-horse race as compared to the EPL, where no one could predict what might happen.

For the past few years, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manu have all won champions league, unlike laliga wey be way nah just Barca / Madrid..

Chelsea for example has always defeated laliga, SerieA, Bundesliga teams in champions league, Including Barca, though our head stats is Draw. We even defeated you guys with 10 against 11 when Barca was still Barca with all their players on pitch..

Any match involving Epl teams in Euro cups is always tough. Y’all knows that but can’t just admit the fact!

You wan dey compare them set of defenders that have played in Epl to Laliga? Even serieA used to be a very tough league than La-Liga..
EPL is predictable. In recent times, Man City have been the red hot favourite to win the league every season. By your logic, we can as well say French league is stronger cos Lille, Montpellier, PSG, Lyon and Bordeaux have all been champions in the last 12-15years.

Should we now say French league is stronger than EPL cos as far as I can remember Lyon knocked Man City out of UCL. Monaco did same to Man City out. PSG flogged Chelsea home and away.

Mention one la liga team top team chelsea have eliminated from UCL that have not done same to them.

E never tey Bayern knack chelsea 7-2 ooh

Abeg mention the defenders wey don play for EPL and tell me which of them better pass Alves, Ramos, Carlos, Marcelo, Puyol…..no forget to include their achievements of your overrated EPL defenders.

English League is not difficult. It is just that they didn't have quality goal scorers in their primes. E.g Cr7. When cr7 started in England, he wasn't prolific as he was when he got to Spain. Cr7 started declining in goal scoring from 2016 in Spain.

Mo Salah won the golden boat with 34 goals a certain season but you are here telling us that most a player can score in England wouldn't be more than 20 goals to win golden boot.

This season will shock you. You will see how Halaand will win the golden boot with more than 40 goals. He is all ready on 17 with 27 games left. You will see that your "hard" league is always short of prolific strikers.

You are saying it is only in Spain, one can score more than 80 goals in a calendar year.

Apart from Lionel Messi mention one player that has played in Spain and had scored more than 70 goals in a calendar year.

Cr7 you are mentioning has never scored up to 70 goals in a calendar year in laliga.

Jesus navas and who so ever you are calling can't even lace the boot of jao Felix.... You are calling average players, stars in Laliga. I am trying to remember the last time I heard of the name Jesus Navas in Sevilla.



The thing is Spain are always lucky with exceptional players.

And they do very well in European football competition (UEFA &Europa). That is why they are very good in producing more Balloon D'or winner. Even Fifa Best players.

Spanish football promotes the aesthetics. That's why most football highlights are from that league. English football is more direct. No time to dribble when you can score from midfield.
Spanish football also favours attackers. Thats why we would have outrageous numbers
