england and spain are the two finest leagues (germany and france come next, in the distance). ANd Italy, like kopite says, is boring.
Juan, despite much abuse from others, I have always maintained that modern teams could not hold a candle to teams of the 70s or 80s. Fitness technology aside, is the only thing modern teams are more advanced on.
this season, I think there is more competition due to possibly a slowdown in major spending by the bigger teams, and better squads among the lesser teams.
