Very nice troll my friend :thumbsup:
Not a troll, simple truth.
The only thing that even kept BPL and its teams relevant in European competition during the last few years was their ability to spend tons of money in order to gain an advantage over other teams via the individual class of their (mostly foreign) players, which they brought to BPL from the rest of Europe knowing they were very well-educated with regards to positional play, tactical awareness or other important things.
EDIT:
Not saying things cannot be changed.
BPL and its teams made some minor and major steps forward during the last year and put more emphasis on developing their players.
BPL and its teams also generate more than enough revenue to stay on that path and invest more in infrastructure.
But still it seems like as of now BPL is ~5 years behind the rest of Europe.
