The same metric EPL fans used to tag a league farmers league is what I am using

When Spain was dominating the entire CL and Europa that didn't stop EPL fans from calling it a farmers league

I am giving Liverpool their credit but putting in context that their lead wont be this much if other teams were decent

Let me ask, WIll Liverpool be topping by 25 points if other teams are not having a horrible season?
Well I didn't agree then so why should I tow that line now?

If you agree that you don't reason like the average EPL fan then why use the same metric they use instead of just acknowledging the team in question is just the best at that point in time

When teams in their best season in history would have still been 7-15 points behind this Liverpool then why are we fixated on any season they are having now when we have already established that even their best will not be good enough

And since then nko? The team was building and getting stronger. Instead of acknowledging this team has probably hit his peak and the dominance is what is being manifested you guys are playa hating
for your information, I respect klopp a lot. In fact, for me, he is the best manager.
Liverpool is a great team, but the tally they have this season is help by the weaker competition.

A team can be the best and still have easier opponents

Usain Bolt can be the best and still face a weak field, they are not mutually exclusive

Liverpool would probably be topping most league this season but I doubt they will have a 25popints advantage over any league this season

Even in previous seasons in the EPL I doubt this would happen

EPL clubs are competitive in their league ...

La liga clubs are competitive in Europe competition....

The year man city won the league with 19 point was the year an english team actually got to final ucl since 2012

The following year, 4 english teams got to finals in europe.

Var has serious problems in this country

How will Ref not blow for this kind of foul?

That's what they did yesterday too.

It's like VAR considers all balls to be in play

So what really is the gripe? Is it the points gap?

If it is then you guys are facing the wrong issue, the emphasis should be on the form of Liverpool and not the perceived failures of the other teams.

This is not a scenario where the rivals would be challenging if they were at their best. Even at their best they would still all be behind Liverpool by some margins. So it doesn't matter at all

What we should be praising is Liverpool's form

There is no competition that would have kept up with Liverpool. None

I don't think we should water down their feats

Liverpool is unbeaten they are 25-1-0 They only have that ridiculous stats because they are playing weak opponents in the league

That is the point

no. i did not fall for anything.

i am one of those who don't totally agree that performance in europe is a reflection of the strength of a team or the competitiveness of a league.

if you ask me i will say teams in the ucl have fallen short of their own standard too.

take a look at clubs that used to be considered favourites before the ucl began; you can't even be sure that they will make it to semis again.
i am talking of teams like bayern, madrid and barca.

man city hit 98 points last season with just liverpool as competition and pool get up with them. what do you think would have happened if the league last season had 2 other liverpools at that level?

you just making it sound like Angels are playing for liverpool and that whatever level the other teams would have been at; liverpool will still top everyone with 22 points.

No

Since you are not using ucl, tell me,
the year conte won the league, was epl competitive?


Competitiveness has nothing to do with the number of points a team won the league with. It is just a record to show how incredible the winning team was.
There will always be incredible teams that will equal or set another incredible record.


Its about what other teams are willing to do to catch up to you the current winner.


Bayern has been winning the league since god knows when. I don't even know any team in germany that can stop them. Same goes for italy. Which other team apart from juventus.

La liga, it is either madrid or barca.

Last decade in england, more than 4 teams won the league, can you say the same for any other top league in europe?.
