Is the Premier League really the best league in the world?

[TH7]

I think the Italian League is worth a mention along EPL for best league. They don't normally rely on foreign owners. Van Basten, Zico, Maradona, Zidane, Ronaldo, Baggio, Weah, the players it used to have were better than all of the other leagues.

[RicardoVilla4]

As for La Liga, its only real Madrid and Barcelona, if you take away those 2 teams from the league the rest are about as strong as the French League. How many top class players are there other than Real/Barca? 4 or 5? compared to Serie A and EPL if you take the 2 best teams in those leagues away (Milan, Juventus,Man City,Chelsea) theres still so much quality in Maicon,De Rossi,Lucio,Milito,Sniedjer,Ca­vani,Hamsik,Lavetti,Rooney,Vid­ic,Evra,Gerrard,Suarez,Modric,­Bale,Van Persie,Nani ect.

[RicardoVilla4]

Also the squads are stonger now in Serie A, look at current Champs Man Utd vs Milan, how many Man Utd players would be defo starters in that Milan team? Obvs Rooney, Vidic, Evra but other than that Im struggling to think of another maybe Nani. Over the past year Milan, Juve, Inter and Napoli have all improved so much for Serie A compared to EPL where only Man City and Spurs have improved and Chelsea, Man Utd, Arsenal have all gone downhill.

[RicardoVilla4]

Serie A has improved so much since this was filmed. Milan have the 3rd strongest team in the World with the best defender in the World in Silva, Ibrahimovic is the 3rd best player in the World, Pato 1 of the top 5 forwards, Nesta 1 of the top 5 CB, Robniho, Cassano, Boateng, Mexes, Seedorf, Aquilaini all class. Juventus on the rise, Inter maybe struggling but they still have a champion team, Napoli/Udinese rising teams. Juventus with a new stadia, more top youth coming through, its looking good.

[RicardoVilla4]

Its funny how people have said the EPL has been the best league over the past 5 years, I live in London, here EPL fans who know nothing about Football bost its the best but heres a question for you, Serie A over the past 5 years has been dreadful I admit that. BUT in that time Serie A has won 2 ECL compared to EPLs 1 so yes the EPL may be the best league in the World. but tbh its nothing for EPL fan to bost about that they cant even win as much as Serie A when its going through its lowest point.

[PalMundo90]

how the fuck is the epl the most competitive league in the world? its the same fucking winners everytime. Bundesliga is the most competitive and most exciting

[hdaaap]

spain, england, italy, germany, france...the rest..

[20cFilmWannabe]

in terms o football skills no, but the fans are deffo the best and the rivalries are also the most competitive

[SickPuppyBeatz]

No the EPL isn't the best in the World, no such thing as 'Best League in the World', and its arrogant of the Premier League to call itself that.

I prefer the The Football League (Championship and Lower) Serie A and Ligue 1.

[jonastrex05]

What a gay program... ofc. the Premier League is the best in the world everone knows it!

[jonastrex05]

[blazer33x]

[rafazii]

Stopped watching when someone described Harry Redknapp as 'astute'

[RGBSF]

6 La Liga seasons within 3 pts, 2 Head to Head seasons!

5 EPL seasons within 3 pts.

7 La Liga Seasons won by 2 wins (6 pts).

11 EPL seasons won by 2 wins (6 pts).

1 La Liga season won by 10 pts or more.

5 EPL seasons won by 10 pts or more.

[RGBSF]

Since the EPL formation (18 years ago) we've seen 4 teams lift the Cup.

In the same time we've seen 5 teams in La Liga lift the Cup.

[ShinLenox]

its the only competitive league, La liga has the best team but, its only between Barcelona and real madrid, nothing interesting!

[MRxluke]

The premier league is because we have the most teams competing in the later stages of the champions league

[errrrwhatthe]

The best league but there are only about 3 english players!

[sunbungun]

A decade ago Serie A had 7 top quality clubs that could challenge for the scudetto

[speedy3702]

If they talk about the italian Seria A and the french League 1, why didn't they talk about the german Bundesliga? It's the third strongest league right now.

[sriusername]

Wheres Andy Gray when u need him/?

[beoptevryday]

i totally agree about the french. but still not the best!

[beoptevryday]

about david from sunday mirror...he debates about consistency to qualify for champions league. that is not the point. we need to separate from qualify to champions league.....to reach final 4 or 6 of champions league

[beoptevryday]

based on the first comment on show by john of daily mirror...we are not talking of best team in history...we are talking about best league in europe!

[beoptevryday]

before i even watch the video...yes it is. my problem is...is not as attractive. i argue with guys all the time that it is the best league..but how do i defend my opinion. is the most attractive based on competition. best for quiet some years based on champions league as well. i am california. living in italy...and follow the one team barcelona. so it tells you.spanish is about two. italian is a mess. german can't ever be...is to static...so it is wide open for premier. but why can it be clear?
