Kaizero Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 How can people say Premier League is superior to Primera Liga? Team basically in the same position as us and Soton beat Basel 5 and Sevilla hammered Porto. "Two and now three team league" yet any side outside the top 4 can boss anyone in the Europa. Bottom team Betis doing Zenit, could really see Sunderland or Fulham doing that. I could, tbf. Zenit is wank. Besides that your point stands though.

Bottom team Betis doing Zenit, could really see Sunderland or Fulham doing that. Valencia are much better than their league positions says though and Sevilla are 5th in La Liga. Besides if you want play the position game.... Arsenal would have Bilbao for breakfast and i could do that comparison across the board really except the top 3. In any case both leagues are pretty similar.... 3 teams clearly above the rest 3 more quality teams behind them and the rest are well below average. Honestly i'm not that impressed with any of the top leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly think you can compare that Fulham to this one. Was reffering more to the stature of the club in recent times as an example of teams from the lower end of the premier league not competing well in europe (they finished 12th the season they reached the EL final), not the current players playing for it. Even then their players weren't that good though, compared to the Juventus side they knocked out for one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Kaiz is a geek. NERD. #nerd #nerd #geek hashtags are cool. Seriously though, PL is not in it's prime-years. Been stated before, La Liga is a step ahead of everyone at the moment. I've said I enjoy the Bundesliga as well more than the PL in both quality and entertainment outside the top 6 but I've gotten a lot of shit for that.

Trumpet Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 All perfectly set up for a Madrid Derby final. One thing is for sure, whoever comes as a victor of Chelsea-Atleti game will have a load of players suspended for the final, given how those teams play. If there is one manager who can out-bully Mourinho, it's Simeone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumpet Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 ^Well, the fact that they avoided each other in the Semi is a start. Both games are wide open, but well...so good chance of a real, dirty, nasty derby in the final. Have we ever had one before ?

Mole_Toonfan Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Bayern will deal with Madrid.... as good as Madrid are at taking out the trash they are abysmal against the elite/great teams. Which has been the case for god knows how long and still is. Hopefully Atletico beat Chelsea but i got a feeling they won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Bayern will have tons of trouble dealing with Madrid, but they're just too good and Guardiola will win it for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
