Football freaks only - Which league is the best?

[cristo]

I agree that Man U will win the competition.

I think the Chelsea v Valencia match will be the closest. I'd like to see Chelsea lose though!

I think that right now, the EPL is the strongest league in the world, especially now that Liverpool are going from strength to strength and are able to attract great players. EPL has four great teams, and at least six other teams who could beat the continental greats on their day.

I would love to see a down-to-the-last-day situation between Manu and Chelsea in the Prem, a Manu vs Chelsea FA Cup Final and a Manu vs Chelsea Champs league final.

As long as Manu win the Prem, I'm not bothered about the finals. I don't like to see monopolies, which is what Chelsea almost established in the Prem.

Hopefully resulting in another treble for Man U!

UEFA has decided which is the strongest league, because it assigns coefficients to the various domestic leagues in order to establish the number of clubs representing each country in the UEFA competitions. These are the coefficients for the 2007/08 campaign

http://www.uefa.com/uefa/Keytopics/kind=64/newsId=436763.html

1)Spain 72748
2)Italy 66731
3)England 63486
4)France 50781
5)Germany 48364

These are numbers and statistics and not the fanatical babble of some of the members here

83% of statistics are made up on the spot anyway.

 

[meteor]

Wow, that is the best counterargument you can come up with? Seems to me that is a way of admiting defeat and acknowledging the superiority of La Liga

 

[Andy]

dont be stupid, if barcelona are so good then where are they in the champ league? what about real madrid?

I don't care about the mandrils, in fact I laughed my soul out when the conceded a goal within the first 10 seconds in the match against Bayern. Ok, this has been a black season for spanish teams in the Champions, let's see what happens next year

 

[Andy]

A very black season for spain, i do love watching barcelona and real madrid though. But i do find that in general premiership games are a lot more exciting to watch than the la liga games.

 

[ziad1985]

And a very good one for England..3 teams

 

[EL]

But i do find that in general premiership games are a lot more exciting to watch than the la liga games.

It's easy to suspect some bias in this statement...

I find the Swedish league very exciting, but I doubt no one else here does...

Judging by the special ones performance in the FA cup that could happen, but I think both clubs are in the crap now, too many injuries. Its a lottery who wins IMHO.

Which year was the data take to create this table? certainly not 2006/2007 or 2005 as a matter of fact

Now I do, since Larrsen will be playing there again

 

[EL]

i'm probably one of the few neutral sides here..and i have to go with the serieA with clost competition from the Ligua, the Premiere division is third. I'm from Lebanon btw. Italy has contact football and very nice tactical play and magnificent players to watch. La ligua has nice strategies and great players. besides Man UTD and Chelsea and Arsenal who has world class players in England? i only watch them because of Chelsea and Theiry Henry ! i don't know 1 player in England who can entertain viewers like ronaldinho, ibrahimovic, adriano...do.

 

[eaboujaoudeh]

probably the english league would improve when the work permit is eased up a little. comon english ppl were are your brazilians and argentinians?

 

[cristo]

comon english ppl

I'll take that as a phrase that's lost in translation

were are your brazilians and argentinians?

erm.. West Ham Utd?

 

[EL]

I'm a bit surprised I get "team mates" in Serie A now, but not at the time the thread was started. I mean since then Serie A has become a bit demolished due to the bribe scandal etc. Actually I would go for La Liga right now...

Lebanese you say? We have a crappy league here, that's why we are fans of European leagues, but I agree with you on SerieA .
Ps:I like very much the German league, but I don't feel it rises up to leagues like the Italian one..

 

[eaboujaoudeh]

common = as in come on, sorry for that.
we have a league in Lebanon? damn :P
