why do you leave out spurs liverpool and arsenal ? 3 massive clubs

At the end of the day chelsea or city could rival any of bayern barca or madrid and im 100% sure united will be there very very soon

Then you have arsenal and liverpool, imo once wenger leaves arsenal and they get abit of a mix up with a new vision they have the infrastructure to be one of the biggest clubs in the world too.
Liverpool are also in a transition and it will take time to get over losing suarez but i think rodgers and fenway sports group have a vision of big ambition

EPL is in a transition right now and is still the best league in the world but can improve definitely, let the haters hate


I didn't leave any of them out???


City vs United
City vs Chelsea
City vs Arsenal
City vs Tottenham
City vs Newcastle
City vs Southamption
City vs Liverpool
City vs Everton
United vs City
United vs Chelsea
United vs Arsenal
United vs Tottenham
United vs Newcastle
United vs Southampton
United vs Liverpool
United vs Everyton
Chelsea vs City
Chelsea vs United
Chelsea vs Arsenal
Chelsea vs Tottenham
Chelsea vs New Castle
Cheslea vs Southampton
Chelsea vs Liverpool
Chelsea vs Everton


They are all in there.

Edit: If you didn't understand, this is only half the list. the other half is liverpool vs cheslea, liverpool vs united, liverpool vs city, arsenal vs city, arsenal vs cheslea, arsenal vs united etc, etc.

until all of the teams mentioned meet up home and away... Which leaves you with dozens of matches that are entertaining. No other league in the world can compare to that.

Was this directed at me? If so the no that is not the same.

I watch every Real Madrid game for being a fan of them, the only non-Real matches (neutral) games I watch in Liga BBVA are Barcelona vs Atletico (both games) which is just two games lol. I MIGHT watch Barcelona vs Valencia or Athetlic or Sociodad which brings the total to 8 games.


in EPL, I'll watch every single combination of City, United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle, Spurs, Arsenal, Southampton and Everton. Do the math and calculate how many matches that's going to be throughout a year... Plus I'll even watch the bigger clubs vs smaller clubs Like City/Chelsea vs Aston Villa and shit



And most of my friends / people I know IRL are the same. They'll watch the aforementioned EPL meetups but the only la liga games they'll watch are el clasicos, Madrid derby and Barca vs Atletico (provided they are neutral fans)


And same goes with other leagues... As a neutral fan only thing worth watching in Bundesliga is Bayern vs Schalke, Dortmund and Leverkusen. in Serie A only Juventus, Roma and POSSBILY the Milan clubs playing each other


Tl;dr:

EPL = 50+ good games/season
other leagues = < 10 good games/season

But but but you watch Leicester City too right? .... RIGHT? :cry:

Couldn't agree more on your points though. Only time I'd watch a foreign league is for "the big one" Barca/Real, BvB/Bayern, Juv/Roma or PSG/Monaco

Exactly.

I watched Leicester City vs United match, I had a hunch that United would get hammered in that game, boy did I enjoy that.

10/10 would watch it again.

EPL is only interesting to watch because they use more foreign players than local players. Which is why their national team is shit.

Even then, EPL only plays long ball, park the bus style football which gets a tad bit boring but as MGS stated, they have a bigger line-up of interesting games throughout the season than most leagues.

Other teams I would watch in La Liga are Sevilla, Rayo, Villareal, and Real Sociedad. Typically for me, Spanish football seems to have more beauty and touch to the game as opposed to other leagues, which is why its my preference in European football.

tl;dr EPL is a sell out league.
