I don't understand your thought process....
We've had this arguement many times in the past.

When I point tothe succes of British teams in the Champiosn League and UEFA cups you say one thing.

When I point to the fact that England isn't really a bad international team and is more succesful than Spain you say you don't understand.

It is better you then keep quiet then as this is nothing but bad belle. No matter how you dice it, all pointers are that the Prem is one of the top three teams in the World on any level.

Yujam,

Fact is that England has a 100% record against African teams. I dont like them myself but the truth is the truth. If tehy are so bad and their league lacks technique how come they are heads and shoulders better than 99% of African teams which I know you rate?
Dude did you even bother to read the article, the guy summed up all this Champions League and UEFA Cup success for you, it is false....In the Champions league only 2 teams have won a total of 2 champs league for 17 years and 1 UEFA Cup in that same period (Liverpool and Man U), go and compare this to La Liga and Serie A in that period...Also go and check the UEFA rankings for the leagues...

How is England a better side than Spain because they won one world cup...What was the score the last time they met at Old Trafford...

Recent EPL teams in Europe Cup finals....

AC Milan 2 Liverpool 1
Barcelona 2 Arsenal 1
Sevilla 4 Middlesboro 0

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW, League quality has a huge effect on the standard of International play and that goes without saying!

Brazil and Argentina have the majority of their players in the Prem, La liga and Serie A so ironically you are just proving my point!

the Brazil team that won the Copa America had all its starters come from European League...the captain Gilberto and the goal scorer play in Arsenal!

If the Spanish League is that great how come Spain - drawing its full compliment of players from the likes of Real, Barca, Valencia and Derpo - consistently have their yanshes handed to them by other Nations including Naija in 1998?

Truth is La Liga is good but yall grossly overstate their superiority over the Premiership. All quantitative statistics have shown over and over again that there is very little between the two Leagues and all we are left with is lay men analysis of intangibles like flair and skill!

What the heck are you talking about....What has England done with all their players in the EPL, they haven't done jack like Spain so your comparison is laughable, you're trying to make it seem they have been dominating world football which is just laughable, that is why I said you can't use a league to judge how a national team performs...

When did I even say the EPL is not good, just said they aren't the best league, if you don't like that, fine by me.... :lol:

Please if you have nothing to say go and sit down. You are the one that said International success has nothing to do with quality of the Leagus and I am just telling you that all the Nations that have won the WC's recently draw a majority of their players from the best Leagues in the World including the Prem!

The last World Cup finals had 70% of the players come from the Serie A and the Premiership. You are just a hater!

So I could say Serie is the best league because they had more players in the world cup final....What could all those EPL players on France do in 2002 when Zidane wasn't there, they couldn't even get out of the damn group stages but we all saw what happened in 2006 when he was around and guess where he was playing...

Your point is correct but you use it to ridicule the league in Spain by saying that Spain has underachived because their league is weak which is laughable when England is also underachieving, do they also have a week league....

Say it again so that Yujam, Kabalega and CiC can understand that La Liga dominance of Europe is coming to an end.

I dare say that an EPL team is lifting Champions League this season.
