After last weekend's results, is there any doubt that this is the most entertaining league in the world?
>>64400242
funny how quickly they've gone from the 'best' to the most 'entertaining'. Whatever to stay relevant I guess
>watching a bunch of trash footballs teams is "entertaining"
Football i boring. I only watch the team I support.
>>64400257
>>64400271
Obsession
Only thanks to Vardy and Lester
way too early for me to watch the games, but still follow the news of it.
Yes, Based Leicester, Palace, Watford doing so good.
Even Bournemout and Norwich starting to beat traditional teams
The big clubs can't win the small ones anymore.
Everyone turned to shit or the rest of the league its getting too good?
>everyone in touching distance of 4/5 spots above them
>then villa
Definitely seems like I picked the right year to start paying proper attention
>>64400696
Both
>>64400696
apparently everyone else is actually paying to hold on to their best players because of the new TV flooding the teams with money
>the eternal top 4 or 5 clubs
yeas, any league with real parity
>inb4 muh Lester
1 teams is not enough of a change to be entertaining
>>64400696
EPL teams are all rich. The poorest EPL team is probably richer than the richest Dutch team.
>>64400765
Freshly-promoted Watford are challenging for a Europa League spot, everyone seems to have forgotten this in the wake of OMG LEICESTER and LOL CHELSEA
>>64400770
Can't speak to individual teams, but here's league information (from about a year ago)
>>64400257
Nobody disputes that the best team in La Liga is way better than the best in the PL. Having one or two GOAT teams doesn't make it a good league, though. La Liga is utter shit and piss boring as a whole.
The tv money in the PL allows for more balanced talent distribution because "every" player and their mother wants to play in the PL.
SOCCER IS FUCKING SHIT
SAME TEAMS EVERY YEAR. IF THIS IS YOUR PROOF OF "ENTERTAINMENT" YOU FAIL. ARSENAL, MAN U, MAN C ALL AT THE TOP STILL.
>>64400778
That's nothing new. Newly promoted teams making it to the top half happens in every league. Lester's and Chelsea's situations on the other hand...
>>64400821
Manchester United doing SO well in fact, that they're about to fire their manager!
EPL is #1 at marketing and only marketing.
>>64400778
deeney and ighalo are the best striking partnership in the pl

>SAME TEAMS EVERY YEAR. IF THIS IS YOUR PROOF OF "ENTERTAINMENT" YOU FAIL. ARSENAL, MAN U, MAN C ALL AT THE TOP STILL.
Before Man City won the title in 2012, they had gone more than 40 years without winning it. Arsenal haven't won in more than a decade. And you left Chelsea out....I wonder why?
>all the top teams keep playing like shit
>it's finally Wonga's chance after 10+ years of failure
>he somehow chokes
How many Arse fags will commit suicide if they lose the league to Leicester?
>>64400696
Everyone turned to shit, there's a few teams like Leicester, Watford and Crystal palace playing much better than expected but we still have Blunderland, Newcastle, Norwich playing like non-league sides and then there's Liverpoop, Manure and Chelsea all playing like trash
i never see any tottenham fans on /sp/, anyone else out there?
>>64400271
>implying watching a league where one team just dominates the whole thing is even better..
fuck off
>>64400242
Is Leicester City a legit contender?
>>64401962
Not even worth a smile, that is just depressing. How do the frogs feel about this?
>>64401633
We have jobs and interesting lives so not on often
>>64403155
Everything about this post
>>64401962
>>bigger gap between 1st and 2nd than 2nd and 19th
How does anyone take Ligue 1 seriously
>all teams are shit
>this makes it entertaining
>>64400257
would much rather watch watford vs memehampton than celta vs villareal
>>64400257
La Liga is the SEC of world soccer
Crank out one or two stellar teams from a mediocre league, and suddenly WE DA BESS
>>64403155
is that why you haven't finished top since 61 you kike?
If the NFL had two teams that won every year and everyone knew that they'd win every single year I wouldn't watch anymore.
Why do people even like La Liga?
>>64401633
There was a large number of yid fans back during the bale days when /sp/ thought they would get the 4th position. They got bantered the fuck out since
>>64400696
Stoke bought Shaquiri this summer.
Bournemouth spunked £7m on Gradel.
etc etc.
Rest of the league is getting stronk.
If EPL only allowed British players would the ratings drop ?
>>64405930
Ronaldo or Messi fan boys desu.
>>64405930
because they're all gay for Ronaldo-sama
>>64405945
Even then Spurs threads were fairly vacant except for WHL and a couple of Israelis. The only team that has has a serious downturn in SP action is Liveprool.
Still miss Skrtlpowaa
>>64406008
obviously, since there AREN'T any good british players
>>64406008
At this moment BPL have teams with like 2 englishmen in starting 11 so not only ratings would drop but it can't be done.
>>64402323
like a hue said in another thread, it's more about the other teams (lyon, marseille, monaco, st etienne) playing like shit than QSG playing that good
lyon made terrible signings and just had their new stadium, half of last year marseille's team left and bielsa decided to fuck off right at the season's start, monaco are broke and now only buy meme attacking players to sell them
>>64400242
Watching Liverpool has been entertaining indeed
>>64400242
It's a league for casuals, plebs, and people that is new to football.
>>64406063
>>that pic
>>64405737
Even the SPL isn't that bad. I wonder what the FFF can realistically do about it, since it looks like they probably should think about doing something when it's THIS uneven.
Why wouldn't Gareth Bale play for Swansea City?
>>64405979
Stoke have Bojan, Shaqiri, Arnautovic and Afellay.
5 Champions League managers between them.
Crazy.
Is soccer basically:
>What team can buy the most good players?
>>64406125
yes, but no, but yes
>>64406125
Not at all, otherwise Man City would be bossing the league and Chelsea would surely be near the top.
It's all about >cohesion.
>>64406145
Not at all? So, if there were a salary cap Barceolna and Real Madrid would still dominate their league?
>>64401962
>>64405737
Is it a pleb opinion to think mls is better than ligue uh, if not quality wise for entertainment value?
Enjoyed the shit out of some mls games on sky 2bh
>>64406195
Why is mls more entertaining ?
>>64400242
literally pleb hoofball shit league
La Liga is where you want to watch quality football not hoofing it to a nigger during 90 minutes
>>64406195
because you've just watched a PSG steamrolling a shitty team match
>>64406160
They said 'is soccer basically' and my answer to THAT is 'not at all'. Buying top talent is of course is a major factor, but you can spend £300m on a team of top players that won't work well together.
>>64406160
Your post was too simplistic. Yes the big teams often buy out all the good players doesn't mean those same players will perform or deliver the goods.
Real Madrid is a prime example
>>64406195
I think MLS is pretty fun to watch too. I think because they don't have the defensive discipline to play other than attacking, so there's more going forward than a lot of leagues. Albeit it's not the prettiest to watch.
>>64405930
because they play beautiful but diving football and drama of course you have to speak spanish to watch all the spanish tv shows after the games and the butthurt but yeah I would rather watch Celta Vigo which they place good unlike some shit team like manure playing hoofball
>>64406288
that, and there's not (yet) a stratification like in so many other leagues, where you can basically plot out the season table before it even starts
any team can win pretty much any game in MLS
i find the indian super league entertaining
>>64406204
Reckless "have a go" football is entertaining as fuck 2bh senpai.
Also deciding to be a lifelong fan of the timbers at the start of the season helped a lot ;^)
>>64406237
This is true so fair point
>>64405876
They can't be the SEC because all of the SEC is trash because of the dick riding a team will always make the playoffs
>>64400242
Seriously i dont see Leicester wining EPL, next year they will go down. They dont have the depth of closet to stand the whole tournament. If anything, Arsenal will win their first EPL, if City doesnt wakes the fuck up.
>>64407166

fuck, why did I follow Altidore and not follow him on his way out
>>64406125
Or... create the best players.
The GOAT Messi was build by Barca.
>>64407407
they're doing well right now even without half their team, they'll get BTFO by barça so they'll just have the league to focus on
I pray they don't because arse fans will get even more obnoxious than they already are, but they have a good chance to win it
>>64407458
Why altidore of all American players
>>64407458
at least you're not an Aston Villa fan
>>64407631
was an ignorant pleb, striker was the only position i knew
narrowed it down to:
>American
>Striker
>non-American league (because even then I knew MLS was shit)
>>64407679
very true
>>64400808
What talent? There's more talent in a midtable Liga team than there is at the top of the Premier right now. How many fucking times do you need to get raped at different levels? At the bottom of the table the Premier is complete and utter shit. You might as well be watching the fucking MLS.
>>64400821
>Same teams every year
>Has promotion and relegation rather than franchisefaggotry
You're literally complaining about the only thing that isn't true.
>>64408380
Yeah, lad. I wonder if Barcelona is getting regulated this year
>>64408447
I also wonder if Chelsea is going tumbling down
>>64408380
You're missing the point. He meant that the top teams are always the same.
>>64400242
I agree it is the most entertaining league for the most boring sport
>>64408476
Hint: they won't
>>64400821
>Soccer
>>64407166
>Arsenal will win
Beginner mistake
>>64407814
>I have never watched any of the teams I am referring to as 'complete and utter shit' but feel fine doing so anyway because I'm American and we don't have the part of the brain which deals in knowing that it's dumb to pass comment on things you know nothing about
phew
maybe it's because i'm used to watching FC Bayern München, but personally i don't find shit football entertaining
pl truly is a meme league at this point
>>64411540
>follow memes and not football
It's actually unironically happening this year
>>64401633
They're all a bunch of slags.
>>64407166
>Arsenal will win their first EPL
The cunts have won it 3 times before.
