European leagues outside of England are getting more boring.


La liga is getting less boring each year. The worst years were when Guardiola/Mourinho with that 100 points ligas and the title being decided in the two matches of "el clásico". You knew they would win against other teams always, it was the dark ages of Spanish football.

But this 3 or 4 years it has been awesome, with 3 teams with a possibility of winning la liga. Last year Barcelona only got 1 point more than Real Madrid, and 3 points more than Atlético. The last years the title battle have been awesome. Yes, there will not be a Liecester, but it is overall way better than Bayern, PSG, Juventus in their leagues.

edit: Have we decided we don't need a Champions League thread this year?


Yes, we had a pool and decided against it.

To be fair, had you asked the year before Leicester whether there could ever be a Leicester in England, the answer would also have been an overwhelming "no".

To get disappointed you need to have expectations. And if you still have expectations for England that's your own fault.

We used to have Atlético in Spain as our equivalent to Leverkusen or Arsenal. They had good players like Torres, Aguero, Forlan, etc but they always failed. They were called "el pupas" (the jinxed) always xDD. But Simeone finished the joke after breaking the 17 years witouth winning to Real Madrid streak.

Yeah none of us (apart from Pande obv) really expected anything out of England in this Euro. So no way this is a disappointment.

The World Rankings have always been bad and I can't believe they're used for any seeding purposes in meaningful tournaments.

It was frustrating haha. The football we displayed today was way worse than we normally do but we just didn't seem able to play our usual game. Kuyt is whatever, he has other qualities, but Jorgensen and Berghuis just never got their game going sadly. Also Vilhena is the guy who usually distributes the ball going forward but he just got marked out. The persistent fouling is typical of us though , we are great at defending set pieces so if the ref doesn't card it whatever.

That said,

Feyenoord

To be fair Panathinaikos plays very defensive. Always hard to play well against that.

Yeah more luck than ability, but I think they are finding their groove.

edit: Man ajax defense is so shaky this season. Kind wish we played them now rather than when they get their act together lol.

What a terrible penalty by Klaassen. Luckily Riedewald walks it in.

And a red card for panathinaikos lol. We're lucky here.

Good thing they are reshaping the CL so that "good football teams" like Man U will pretty much always be in it and teams from smaller countries like Feyenoord will not xD

lmao again at Pogba's transfer

We'll start our own Champions league! :D

yeah Pogba is the most expensive player in history and he just looks so ordinary. I know it's still early, but he really should be bossing the midfield against us and yet he just looks lost. He'll probably make me eat my words later in the season, but for now I'm just going to point and do a Nelson laugh.
