Here's the flaw in your pov.
The competition is higher cause the top teams are weaker than barca/rm in comparison.
For example, if we swap man.u and chelsea with barca/rm what do you think will happen?
The competition in liga will rise and in pl will drop.

Now about your "middle ground" thingie.
1) Time and time again average liga teams have knocked out top PL teams over the years in europe. La coruna, villareal and bilbao from the top of my head.
The opposite hasn't happened for god knows how long.

2) Middle ground liga teams are stomping europa league. But I forgot, silly me, PL teams just don't care about europa.

So, how can you prove against these 2 points that pl's average teams are better than liga's.


1) Is not really true. Chelsea, Manchester United, Man City, Arsenal, Tottenham and Liverpool could all compete with Barcelona and RM right now as they have been doing for years now.



Ok, you are just trolling.
Damn, I bite easy. xD

Robert Lewandowski to join Bayern Munich in 2014

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24238500

Borussia Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski has confirmed he will join Bayern Munich next year.
The 25-year-old can sign a pre-contract in January to complete a free transfer switch in the summer - but he hopes to move in the winter transfer window.

"We still have to wait a bit but I say I think in January I can go," the Poland forward, whose deal runs out next summer, told TV station SPORT1.

Lewandowski scored 36 goals for Dortmund last season.
It has been long rumoured that he was going to move to his side's title rivals and when asked if he could confirm the move next year, he said: "Yes, because then I can officially sign a contract."
In the summer, Germany midfielder Mario Gotze went from Dortmund to Munich for £31.5m.
At the start of 2013, midfielder Lewis Holtby made an earlier than expected switch from Schalke to Tottenham when he signed a pre-contract agreement in early January but then moved later that month for £1.5m.
Dortmund - who beat 1860 Munich 2-0 on Tuesday - lost last season's Champions League final 2-1 to Bayern at Wembley.
The Bavarian side went on to become the first side to win the German treble.


Kinda knew this was coming, but on a free? Wow, missed out big time there.

considering how BVB has problems with injuries and too small squad, keeping Lewa one year was the perfect decision

If they are going to do that they should have just sold him in the summer.

Imagine a place where the Alps meet the Mediterranean, where you can pick autumn fruits in the morning, bathe in the Adriatic in the afternoon, and go night skiing in the evening…It’s Slovenia!

He's been pretty poor so far, in this game and the last he played, given the ball away dangerously a lot. Hes obviously not match fit or in form. I haven't watched him for BVB but his praise there is the only reason im cutting him slack and not asking why we bought him, because hes hardly set the world alright at united so far.

Well Hernandez has Van Persie ahead of him so that's rough, although I do rate him more highly than Welbeck.

Yeah I think Hernandez is defiantly better at the moment, but i do think Welbeck will be immense when hes older, he so young at the moment and seems still such a raw talent

Indeed, once he starts bringing more composure to his game he'll be scary.

Man Kagawa just looks so poor today, he could have been through on goal.

Anyone else get STUPIDLY PISSED OFF, everytime a professional football team take a "short" corner? Liverpool have done about 4 this game, 3 have done NOTHING, the 4th nearly results in them conceded a match winning 2nd goal. Wow footballers >.<
