It's not the toughest league in the world. Stop believing the Sky Sports hype. It's been a two team league for the last 20 fucking years - Man Utd and one other. Toughest league my fucking arse.

Fuckin hell you can't make a point on this site without somebody jumping down your throat.Look there's normally two sides to most discussions,how about discussing them.For what its worth I think the fact only three teams have won it the past twenty years tells you its a tough league to win so coming second is no disgrace,I think therefore the OPs got a point as do you so why the insults

Don't worry, it's the internet.....

Perhaps if I posted this it would have made them happy......

Oh, and he's put it on Bluemoon, so he's basically asking for opinions on his point of view, and I gave one.

It is the toughest league in the world.

Madrid and Barcelona are the two best sides, but La Liga is not as good as the Premier League.

There might not even be a La Liga next year, as the other 18 teams look to get a fair share of the TV money, which Barcelona and Madrid have been hogging for themselves.

And how much spent?
Also, what do you win for finishing 2nd?
Also, what credit is it to be 13 points ahead of 3rd place?

The team above us are the ones who can speak of the team below them, as it is them who will get the ultimate prize. We will walk away empty handed.

you really are becoming a charicature of yourself... time to go home....

Lose at Arsenal & the 13 points will shorten. Plus the points between 1st & 2nd will I'm sure grow. With the squad we have it should have been won by now. But we have a manager who can not man-manage. Hate to say it but I believe come the end of the season. These two gaps will have shortened & grown. Not in the way we would like them to be.

yep, that's why they could easily have 2 teams in both CL and EL finals.

We haven't lost the title race just yet. From what I read on here I think a lot of the negativity comes from our own supporters at Eastlands. You can see it in the faces on TV, the fans gave up on the league a long time before Mancini.

Our fans are better than la liga. Other than that I can't really see how the premier league is better than la liga other than Jamie Redknapp saying so.

Four out of the top five players in the world play in Spain, they have the two biggest grounds, the bottom teams have taken more points off the top teams over the last 5 years than the premier league (according to Guillem Ballague on revista de la liga), they play gorgeous football and a team that lies 10th in their league wiped the floor with united both at the swamp and at home. Let me say that again: they wiped the floor home and away with our best side of the last 15/20 years.

But we are English so the English is better.

we'd need to be on 98 pts to have won it by now mate out of a possible 93. Fuck of Mancini
your a shit man manager
