>Spanish league full of stars an dominate continental cups >German league with lot of stars and are good in continental level >Italian league has one of the best clubs in the world and the Milanese clubs are getting their shit together >French league has PSG and Monaco full of stars and are competitive in continental level, Nantes and Lille with managers like Ranieri and Bielsa getting good
Can we all agree the "Premier" League is barely the 5th best league in Europe?
Thomas Diaz
>be a 2nd division team >ascend >win premier league next year
literally Air Bud 3 tier competition
Benjamin James
>2 (two) Spanish clubs full of stars an dominate continental cups >1 (one) German club with lot of stars and are good in continental level >Italian league has 1 (one) of the best clubs in the world and the rest are trash >French league has PSG full of money and are average in continental level, Monaco losing half their team while Nantes and Lille remain 100% irrelevant
Can we all agree the Premier League has the far superior depth in quality?
Matthew King
Can we all agree that PL has the best app and that Ligue 1 has the worst?
Jack King
Atletico is better than every PL team
Oliver Stewart
Lol good meme i remember when people said the same about sevilla because they won the europa league
Jaxson Cox
The only two players they have that even had premier league clubs bother to buy them left the PL because they flopped hard.
Ryder Ortiz
0 (zero) English team have been threatening in CL for 5 years
Henry Murphy
>aguero >costa >courtois >de gea
Blake Allen
none of those play for atletico m8, they moved to superior english clubs because they were too good for atletico
that makes two of us pal
Cooper Brooks
two PL teams will make it to the CL quarters this year. One will make it to the SFs. not sure after that but remember this
Christian Wilson
>Atletico eliminated Chelsea and got further than any English team in 2014 >Atletico got further than any English team in 2015 >Atletico got further than any English team except Manchester City in 2016 >Atletico eliminated Leicester and got further than any English team in 2017 >The last time Atletico got beaten by an English team in a non-friendly was in 2010
Ethan Fisher
What's your point? Atletico would win the Bundesliga.
Jack Wilson
As always, the english will argue that if their are EQUALLY shit in CL, its somehow a sign of quality in depth.
In fact there's absolutely no way to know if that's true except by doing a championship with the 10th team of everyleague. The marketting non sense, the fake star systeme, and the over inflated pricetags makes them believe that teams like Everton or Southampton are full of talent when in reality teams like that are dime a dozen everywhere in Europe
In the last 3 season
2017: Monaco in the semis, Leicester in the quarters 2016:City in the semis, PSG in the quarters 2015: PSG and Monaco in the quarters, no english team in the quarters
In head to head, Monaco beat City and Arsenal, PSG lost to Chelsea and City.
In the last 3 seasons, french team factually had better results than EPL teams in Europe. Yet everybody would (rightly so) laugh at someone who would claim Ligue 1 to be superior to Preimer league, when the results show the gap is not big
Joseph Reyes
It's a cup competition dickhead. Arsenal have the most FA Cups in England, doesn't make them the best team ever because there are so few games in a cup.
Jackson Powell
>last 3 years
Sounds arbitrary. Why not 5? That's what the coefficients use. Post Europa League too, PL 2 wins + 1 final.
Carter Gomez
you're just talking about one extremely rich team.
Liga NOS has three teams superior to ligue 1's top three teams
Hudson Cruz
can't you see this is an unfair comparison? the english teams have to play against sunderland, stoke, crystal palace or burnley on the weekend lmao
Lincoln Collins
The point is that Atletico is better than any English team
That's true. However, there is nothing which would suggest that any English team was better than Atletico in the last 5 years
Jack Sullivan
Arsenal can win domestic cups but sucks shit in international cups. You're proving our point, scumdon resident.
Jack Young
you're using a sample of 2 teams to judge the whole league, you're talking shit lad
It's more the fact that all the best players in the world come to the premier league unless they can swindle a move to Barca or Real (tax haven) or PSG (get huge backhander from rogue arab state). Bayern is the only other club in the world with equivalent power level.
Anthony Gray
>Air Bud 3 Hey I liked this movie!
Jeremiah Lewis
no I'm proving that cups are much easier to succeed in than leagues, they don't require the same quality to ensure a win or good finish. In short, luck is a far bigger factor.
Jackson Kelly
>Air bud 3 Kek
Thomas Cruz
have you ever taken into consideration that the reason the Premier League is challenging is because every team there is shit?
Levi Rivera
Yeah, cups in which only English teams participate suffer a severe lack of decent opposition, so much so that even the likes of Shitsenal can win them.
Dylan Bailey
palace and stoke are better than bottom half of bundesliga
Bayern has to play the mighty MAINZ, HANNOVER AND AUGSBURG
Samuel Lopez
Last 5 years of the coefficient: 2 Europa League wins 1 Europa League runner up
1 CL win 2 CL SFs
It's funny the PL is at its weakest for a while yet no league other than La Liga has better results. These results come from 4 different teams too, not just Bayern/Juve racking them all up.
Samuel Young
the obsession over the PL means we are still #1 desu imo
William Torres
watch and compare before making that statement lol bundesliga has had a higher standard of football for a while now
Benjamin Campbell
Your pitiful knowledge of continental geography does not magically make every club from a city you never heard about worse than familiar shithole village clubs from England and fucking Wales.
Jose Jones
lol
Bentley James
Like Freiburg.
Jeremiah Powell
Like West Ham Like Southampton
The only league that matters still is La Liga. Everyone else has top teams then is swarming with mediocrity.
Jordan Cooper
tfw Italy will soon overtake Eplel
whewlad
Ryan Sullivan
face it lad. your league is shit. it's okay you can watch our league if you pay ;)
Blake Walker
Atletico barely scraped past Leicester on a non-penalty last season, m8. Leicester, who were sitting in ~14 or so in the PL at the time IIRC.
Evan Cooper
And the PL is still shit. Name one team that has improved its starting eleven in the off-season. Maybe Arsenal with Lacazette but that's it.
David Cruz
Well... while possible, it become slightly unfeasible when you consider that the PL has outscored SA in 3 of the past four years, including last year, and the year before that, and this year so far.
Andrew Hughes
>cacazette
Isaiah Miller
>Cacazette >not better than Girpoo
Blake Cook
Amount of JF delusion ITT is amazing. Literally SEETHING with hatred for us haha.
Ayden Robinson
>yfw there are more Bosnian players in top 4 leagues than there are English
Adrian Hernandez
>spain has three good teams >france has two >italy and germany one each >england has zero
Adrian Bell
But quality is still a much bigger factor than luck, plus he was talking about a 4-5 years period, where Atletico have been consistently good (way better than any english club), not a 1 year fluke like ManCity
Jack Ward
>German delusion
Lincoln Rodriguez
If PL is so irrelevant, how do you explain these squads for Euro 2016? Checkmate Eurotards
Asher Barnes
>british denial
Lucas Hill
And yet they got dominated by Liverpool in the Audi Cup
Noah Wilson
This is some blown the fuck out. Not surprised JFs ignored it.
Aaron Hernandez
England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Southern Ireland all in the same tournament
Angel Roberts
England Ireland Wales Northern Ireland
All qualifying, without players playing on continental Europe, it inflated those numbers.
Angel Myers
Chelsea United Everton City
Think before you post, idiot.
Jason Moore
>Italian following German opinion
Where have I heard this one before.
Sebastian Jones
Even when you take them off we're still the highest
Brayden Rogers
JF's blown the fuck out. Once again.
Zachary Price
Great retort lmao
Jaxson Williams
And the fact that spanish league is full of south americans who don't play in a European tournament (that's why germany is so high)
Look for the same stats in the last world cup
Joshua Martinez
>Look for the same stats in the last world cup Oh yeah good idea Pierre, oh look, BTFO yet again.
You fucking idiot.
Justin Gomez
lel
Justin Long
That's just a consequence of having more foreign players.
eg. La Liga has a lot of Spanish players and they can only have 23 players.
If it's any consolation the frog idiot needed a Britgod to figure this out for him so you can have a moral victory.
Camden Gonzalez
>all of those Literally how? Everton sold Lukaku, they got worse. Chelsea bought.. who? Morata and Bakayoko might actually be worse than Costa and Matic, and Rudiger isn't so great.
>Man City Okay, i'll give you that but only because you're a cocky cunt.
>Man Utd I'm a fan of this club and I can't see how we're any better in terms of personnel.
Chase Brooks
Ah yes that legendary Spain squad of 2014 that didn't get out of the groups. I'm sure the B team would have been superior to 90% of the competition.
Ryder Davis
>I'm a fan of this club and I can't see how we're any better in terms of personnel. are you kidding? now you have pookaku, matic and lindelof
this is the best united team in years
Caleb Harris
>Lukaku We had Ibra last year.
>Lindelof Who knows how good this guy will be?
>Matic Yeah, maybe. If Mourinho plays 4-2-3-1 in half of the game, it won't make much difference though.
Daniel Thomas
im a chelsea fan but i'd bet united finish in the top 2 next year
cap this post and print it off and use it for inspiration
Cameron Wilson
> Courtois and Costa make it to the CL finals with Atletico > back at Chelsea and have barely seen the RO16
James Morgan
Why is there such bitterness against the Premier League?
Samuel Murphy
la liga>>eplel>>bundes but RedBull could save the bundes tbqh now we got a competition there
