tetsuo posted:Is it massive? I thought that while the Sky pl deal is the biggest it's also split more evenly among the teams whereas the top 2-3 teams in the other European leagues - maybe Germany excepted? - are taking home the majority of the broadcasting money for their league, roughly evening it out. Only Real, Barca, PSG, Bayern can match English financial muscle and you don't see them struggling to get through piss easy group stages.

opus111 posted:I dont know why everybody wrings their hands over english teams in the champions league. It's generally a boring competition and european teams are dull to watch. as long as the premier league keeps being the most fun to watch (which I think it is) then who cares? Let the boring fancy dans have their diving matches. drat, you are right. if only the prem wasn't so competitive and fun to watch.

How on earth have Juve bought 374 players in five years, are they just rolling around academies scooping them up by the busful?

Also, those teams aren't pushed as hard and as often as PL teams. When you're up 3-0 at halftime you know you can just kick it about a bit in the second half and the other team isn't likely to make a comeback.

As a free market capitalist, I believe that quality comes from high level competition. In the long run EPL teams will be better off thanks to playing in a stronger league.

They're not being rested as such, but both Barcelona and Real Madrid can essentially play at half speed against many of the teams in the league and still win comfortably.
