Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Hey I'm not saying its the best, but its the most exciting and overall the best packaged. Its nowhere near as exciting as it used to be in the early 90s and 00s of course, but its still an entertaining league and very well contested. I think on that score its getting better. The cliche no easy game isn't a cliche anymore in the EPL. Man City are obviously a level ahead at the moment, but you see how hard they have to work and fight for a win and the opposition can still hurt them and claim a surprise win or draw. I don't watch too much footy these days, be it our own league or other leagues, but whenever I do watch a match played in England or on the continent, the English match is usually more exciting or more evenly contested. Spain has the better ratio of quality players and the style is much better to watch and Serie A has had a bit of a renaissance in terms of quality football. I personally find the French and German leagues bland and monotonous. Each to their own though... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Having a top 6 is proof enough imo, most league's have 2 or 3 really great teams. The level Man City are playing at doesn't mean the rest aren't great to watch either, it's just that they're that good. I still really enjoy watching Spurs, Liverpool and at times Man United, Chelsea, and Arsenal. Below them the entertainment is lacking, probably, but I think the quality's there. Percentage or defensive football isn't that great to watch, but at least we're able to see teams making it work, rather than teams that don't. Fwiw, I think that us, West Brom, Southampton and West Ham in particular play pretty unentertaining football, but it serves a purpose in our case. Catch Watford, Leicester, Huddersfield, Christ even Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and Stoke on the right day and you'll see some decent football. Serie A has five teams really challenging for the title this season It's not a competition. At least not to me. Those are both good things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 What do you mean by best packaged HTT? I'd consider it to be overhyped and sanitised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 What do you mean by best packaged HTT? I'd consider it to be overhyped and sanitised. I agree, but it’s sold well as a package globally and that contributes to its huge popularity and appeal. Me and you know it’s overhyped and sanitised, but go abroad and the numpties lap it all up. I’d rate the PL 7 out of 10 as a competition. I actually find the Championship enjoyable, the football is crap, but there are usually goals, mad refereeing decisions and lots of incidents in the games. What our game lacks is characters and personalities, on the pitch and in the dug out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I'd be intrigued to know what would happen if at the end of the season each team from the PL, La Liga, Serie A and the Bundesliga played the team that finished in the same position as them in the other leagues (not sure what you'd do with the Bundesliga). Make it the 39th game (and 40th and 41st...). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
