It is natural for supporters of a certain club to say the domestic of their club is the best.. Well, the epl has the highest number of supportable teams so i guess they have the upper hand if we are using that criteria but why does the English Premier League standout from others???.. Easy
Quite unlike the other European leagues(i dont think there is really any need of involving leagues outside Europe) the difference in the QUALITY of the top 8 clubs is really not much... Yes yes some will disagree but lets look at it this way.... West brom vs the current champions Chelsea at the hawthorns... Definitely west brom will be looking to get all three points and if they do, no one considers it a huge upset...but in other leagues, well we all know the celebrations that will happen
Also Spain, germany, Italy, france, the other four of the five major European leagues have seen a combined number of 6 clubs lift their domestic trophies in the past 5 years while England alone in the past 5 years has seen 4 champions(one of them being LEICESTER city)
Then we have the issue of tv rights.. I mean I would definitely sit down to watch relegated Sunderland vs watford.... But think about 90mins of deportivo vs gijon or chievo vs palermo or freiburg vs ingolstadt or even bordeaux and rennes.. I will definitely not wish such agony on anyone
But its also important to note that these English teams have a LONG way to go before they can match up to the best in the above listed leagues hence their constant early exits from the ucl
WHICH IS YOUR FAVORITE LEAGUE???
