Thread 150160775

I haven't watched any European leagues for a long time, other than the EPL, which one is worth watching?

serie a, la liga have different champions and good football
eredivisie, primeria and super lig have bad football and different champions

>>150160775 (OP)
Eredivisie

>>150160823
i really liked all the Ajax matches that i watched in that UCL that they lost to Tottenham

>>150160775 (OP)
Not ours unfortunately. Wish it were different. The potential is there, I think the play style itself is good for the most part. But there are too many obvious things that suck
Serie A is my tip when it comes to balance. Not sure how attractive the average game is

>Serie A is my tip when it comes to balance. Not sure how attractive the average game is
The games are more often slow and tactical. More for connoisseurs than those seeking entertainment. Decent balance though. The lower ranked teams often outrun, outwork the top teams and make those matches look even(ish).

La Liga, BL and Serie A i guess

>>150160775 (OP)
La liga is a two team race but has passionate fans in the stands
Bundes is broken but has probably the most hilarious meme moments
nobody cares about ligue 1
serie A is SOVL

>>150160775 (OP)
imo premier league > serie A (it's actually a good league)> bundes I guess? good level overall even though you know who's gonna win it > la liga for the drama (if you're not into the drama then fuck this league) > ligue 1 (you know it's a one horse race against a bunch of donkeys)

>>150160775 (OP)
Only EPL and Serie A are worth watching right now desu, the rest is:
>barca/madrid winslol
>buyernwinslol (had a 1 year hiatus, is about to resume)
>psgwinslol

Série A is kino. The Bundesliga is fun other than the one unfortunate fact you already know about. Ligue 1 is also interesting to follow ignoring Pissigee but less so than the Bundasliga.
I've had fun watching the Tugão too, but you have to be ready for very, very ugly football.

>>150160775 (OP)
depends on if you value more talent or merchandising

Avoid Serie A at all costs.
Shortly afterwards the introduction of VAR in our football movement, every year the (((FIGC))) picks a different football club to be the predetermined Serie A winner for the season in order to attract a broader audience of average redditors.
The results led to a significant downward levelling of competition compared to ten years ago (specifically, the teams in the lower half of the standings get worse every year); the games are unwatchable trash mostly decided by morally corrupt refereeing as well as sports regulations, sport justice decisions and calls that are enforced impartially depending on which team commits infractions.

Enjoy your entertainment product bro, the DAZN subscription tripled in cost will be money well spent to watch the same foul adjudicated in three different ways every matchday

Ligue 1 mcdonalds of course, currently presided by the best team in the world
>but muh CW-
we don't care about that one, remember?

>>150163222
>he thinks I pay to watch football

>>150160775 (OP)
i'd say Serie A but u can also watch LaLiga but only fcb and rm game , ligue 1 only when psg collide with as monaco or om&ol, lille etc etc.. as for bundes just watch the big games where the cl qualified ones clash i guess

>>150160775 (OP)
serie a

>>150163355
Worst post of the year.

>>150162265
Atletico wins year. And La Liga has good football overall for many teams. An no Humiliation ritual kneel.

>>150160775 (OP)
Swedish Allsvenskan

>>150160775 (OP)
Only Premier League is worth watching. The others are farmers leagues.
>In blundershitga Bayern has 33 league titles and the next team 3. The team doesn't even have good players anymore while Dortmund buys players from Championship, kek
>Serie Ass is a retirement league where the game is played at snail pace in shitty stadiums.
>La Liga has only 2 relevant matches and I guess the few minutes when Pathetico has a lead against Real Madrid and Barcelona, who will finish top 4 no matter what. Rest of the teams play the same way like the NPC filler teams they are.
>Ligue 1 is astroturfed into a big 5 conversation. 17 or 18 clubs there would be fighting relegation in Premier League. This is why PSG stars feature in at most 20 leagues but still walk the league. You can watch it to identify the next meme France black or Nafri NT player

>>150168701
>Atleti will win this year again!
Kek, you dumbfucks say this every year and they always ALWAYS choke.

It bores me to tears. What's a good argument for watching the kneelers?

>>150160775 (OP)
Spain

>>150168701
>Atletico wins
Yea they lucked into one title 5 years ago already and then 6 years before. Valencia won it in like 2004 and since then only Atletico managed to snag only 2 titles, it's all just Madrid and Barcelona winning

>>150160775 (OP)
Eredivisie is meme-tier hilarious with how bullshit it can be at times with their matches. Give it a go.

>>150168797
1. Games are high tempo, basically that PSG style enabled by Ligue 1 rest that mesmerizes Continental Yurop is basic bitch PL football.
2. Because the clubs are rich, there are quality squads in like 13 out of 20 clubs. This ensures at least 5 high profile matches every weekend
3. Big 6. These 6 teams would be contender for any continental European Farmers League and would be guaranteed to win every league expect Spain.
4. Real domestic club Football culture. It's not like the continental European format of having national clubs or Germany's fake club tradition. The clubs in England have immense institutional pride and it reflects in game play. This is why the strong teams don't ever play B teams like is done in Yurop.
5. If a big team has a bad season they won't make top 4 UCL places. This is different from continental European farmers leagues where Bayern or Real Madrid fans will whine about the season then you go check standings and they're comfortably 2nd or 3rd with 3 or 2 losses. Kek

>>150160867
I like Bundesliga matches, the main issue is the lack of parity. Bayern being so much better than everyone else is kind og bland, but a lot of talent comes from Bundes and the matches are incredibly offensive and direct with great atmosphere

>>150168928
>3. Big 6. These 6 teams would be contender for any continental European Farmers League and would be guaranteed to win every league expect Spain.

I didn't see them in a Champions League final for two years

>>150162265
The PL has had awful parity recently. It has being either City or Liverpool for like a decade. Arsenal this season has potential but I doubt they will win the league

>>150168792
Atletico has won a league more recently than any PL team not called Liverpool or City. The PL has being far from a league with high parity for a long while and the league regulations have favored 6 teams over everybody else (see what has happened to Villa and Newcastle recently)

>>150168816
La Liga stopped having parity with globohomo and Real Niggdrid and Farçelona attracting a bunch of pancho customers in the 90's and 00's. Teams like Valencia, Depor, Celta or Atleti before relegation used to pull great teams.
In fact if it wasn't for Gil Atleti would have grown to be as big as Barça

>>150168928
>Big 6
Tottenham and United are no where near close to being candidates in any top league in Europe and Chelsea probably is not there either. From the PL the only teams I could see winning La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and Bundes are Arsenal, City ( if they recover) and Liverpool

>>150169077
Yeah, true
It’s Bayern’s dominance and the presence of some plastic clubs. 2nd Bundes is much more balanced and has more „ideal Bundesliga members“ than the Bundesliga … or at least they had until last season, it is about even now
Bundesliga could be so much better if it weren’t for the lack of parity. I bet it would also bring in a significant amount of money in the long run, maybe even enough to get Bayern over crying too hard about their losses in such a scenario

>>150169134
Tottenham being counted as one of the „Big Six“ exposes that very concept. It’s impossible to take the entire term seriously when they glaze Tottenham like that. United at least used to deserve it

Serie A is the only one worth watching. You already know the winner in the others
>EPL: Liverpoo
>Bundes: Buyern
>La Liga: Barca
>Ligue 1: P$G

>>150169194
What killed league football was third worlders viewership making bigger fish bigger and the abolition of the Bossmann law that distributed foreign talent in a more skewed way.
In the early 2000's you had teams like Superdepor that could not be formed in this plastic era even if you distributed TV rights perfectly even

>>150163355
You should watch all levels of football for a better understanding. Seeing the limitations of teams and players at a lower level gives you more appreciation of the game all round, rather than do what you suggest which is just follow RM, barca or psg

>>150171365
yeah yeah i wholeheartedly agree, if i had to add a league that you should watch all of the games in it wich also has limitations like you suggest that would be the brazilian league, it's just so so competetive there. back in the early 2010s that was the best non local league available in our region so i had a blast no matter who played

>>150171565
I've never watched the Brazilian league enough to comment desu but it's probably one of the most entertaining.

>>150169134

This seething Spaniard strikes again

LOL

>>150169121
>In fact if it wasn't for Gil Atleti would have grown to be as big as Barça
hes bad managing the club in 90s?

Can I interest you in Bournemouth vs Burnley?

>>150173970
Atletico was as big as Barça financially until relegation
>>150172991
How am I seething? Chelsea won't compete the PL this year and the FIFA club world cup is a literal meme

>>150160814
>la liga have different champions
what?

>>150174177
You're seething because despite Lol Liga organizing hundreds of matches, only 2 matter. This weak Real Madrid team will comfortably finish second

>>150174177
Two clubs have won 64 of 94 titles between them, and only three clubs have won the Spanish league in the last two decades (compared to four English clubs who've won the Premier League championship in the last ten years).

Madrid and Barca are incredible teams and they play some admirable football, but as a whole the Spanish League is just too predictable to be worth watching. You can say the same about different spells in the Premier League, when different clubs have dominated, but at least the 150+ years of competitive football in England tells us that whilst teams may be dominant, they're never dominant for long

>>150186722
>despite Lol Liga organizing hundreds of matches

What an odd thing to say

everything outside the premier league is shite.
reminder that rasmus hojlund was considered a fenomeno in shitaly, pmsl.
