From MY prospective..

Spanish: no defence, good ball possession, good quality, 4 great teams, the rest sux. B+
Italian: great defence, great players, 4 great teams but the others are globally better than in the rest of the world. B
English: funny to see. 2 great teams, the rest plays good football, even if they aint so good. But it's good to see. Maybe the best. B+
France: good, but nothing special. C+
Holland: just Ajax and PSV. D
Germany: looks like the Italian one, but the level is a lot inferior D

Its between England and Spain definitely. Between like 94-97 Italy would have been up there as well, but it's just too boring for me now, and most of the bigger players have started going to Spain rather than Italy now it seems.

Naw, it's not boring. It's just harder. A mid-level team in Italy is usually better than mid-level teams in the rest of Europe, and that's why it's hard to see good games: cause even when it's Juventus vs a mid-level team, it's hard to win, and if you win 1-0, it's a good win. There's no place for showtime. Here 1-0 is hella hard even against the last team in the tournment. Some say it's a positive thing, cause like that the tournment is interesting and HARD. Some say it's boring. I accept both the thing, everybody got his own opinion. Personally i think the Italian Tournment is still the hardest one, and one of the most prestigious. Italian teams are always hard to defeat. In 1994 Milan played the CL final, in 1995, 1996, 1997 Juve played the CL final, in 2003 2 Italian teams in the CL. We've had 6 italian teams in the last 10 years of CL finals. But yeah, it might be boring watching it from outside. No doubt.

english or spanish. both have a lot of good teams. most of the time nice matches.

i dont like the italian much they defend most of the time. i'm not sure about the french league, dont see that alot. could be a cool league but i dont think so. portogese is pretty dope to but to much difirence between the teams, its sporting and porto against the rest. i dont like german football. so i dont watch it. i only watch BM, cuz of makaay. dutch league isn't much its like the portugese leage: Ajax, PSV and the rest.

I don't think it's that the mid level teams are better, its just that they seem quite happy to draw with the big teams, so they play defensively, and don't mind if they draw 0-0. In England, the same level of teams just put everything into games against the bigger teams, especially at home, to try and force the issue and rattle the big teams. They actually believe that they may be able to beat an Arsenal, Man U or Chelsea, whereas in Italy the approach of a mid table team would be that they probably can't beat the top teams so a draw is better than a loss.

Yeah, i remember that stadium. Juve eliminated you once. It's quite hard to win there, but you know, it's quite hard to win in Milan or in Barcelona too. ;D

proberly the NFL.  every league that tries to start up the NFL puts them in there place.  Cept that arena league football.  They dont get a lot of raitings but they have managed to stick around for 15+ seasons.

lol i know, but they got some really good players there

I use to love watching the Italian league, but i no longer get the channels to watch it, so i just watch English and Spanish soccer.

1. Premier League
2. Serie A
3. Primera Division

That's by far the 3 best leagues..
I see a lot of people rate Spain higher, but you don't become the best league by having the team that spends the most money..

(PS: Brits notice that Real steal their stars, but Beckham, Owen & McManaman was/is on the decline, and Beckham & Macca are just squad filler, Woodgate is good though, but stars doesn't make the league alone..)

It depends what you mean by best.

If you're talking about most exciting, there is not even a debate.  The English league is the fastest and most physical there is.  Premiership is easily the most exciting.

But as for quality, the Prem is overated.

On the top stage, English clubs with the exception of Man United come up short everytime.  Only one English club has won European Cup for 20 years!  Germany beats that, Portugal beats that, Romania and Yugoslavia draw!  And on top of that, excluding United, only 2 have made the semis, Leeds and Chelsea.  And last year, apparently Arsenal are one of the best teams ever, and what do they do in Europe?  Lose to Ukranians, Italians and draw with Russians!  Overated.

I go with Italy.  I'm never impressed with Spain.  Italy never bores me either.  It is top quality.  Antonio hit the nail on the head with his comment about mid level teams in Italy still being good.  A mid table English team like Charlton would get murdered by the Italian mid table sides.

Quarters, Semi, Final, Quarters, Quarters, Semi, Quarters, Second Round.

We are the most consistent club in the history of the Champions League, the team that has got out of the Group Stage the most times.

Instead of making a partisan statement about club football you could have contributed to the debate but didn't.

1. Spain...the primera division is unfuckwithable except for defense
2. England
3. Italy

i don't even care about the others...germany sucks, france is kinda boring too, south american i don't get to watch...and i can't think of any other even worth mentioning (as a league, of course portugal got fc porto, holland got ajax etc)
