you are correct dude. and see how EPL's changing because of that...
invaders come in with the name of passion..
even Galaktikus cannot change the La Liga despite having numerous "star" policy before..

In that case we're luckier than you. While we have an owner spending his money for us, your owner seems grinding money to settle his debt?

I have no problem with that, he's grinding money to settle his debt. We make our own money for our transfers. I prefer the club to be without owners anyways. For the fans.

Every team has their own way of making money and getting their transfer funds..im juz glad tat MU stil got some monies to buy players..

epl cannot go world cup??
wad mean?????
Well
I like EPL cuz:-
-Good Commentators(veryyyy important)
-Bright graphics =.=
-Nice field
-Nice atmosphere(NO bombing,firecrackers=.=)
-Physical game, fast....more exciting
-Got more leng chai?
-I've been stuck wif it since std 3...
=)

Today's Sportscentre:

There have only been 16 English players who have played in Champions League Finals since 1993. Italians lead the way with 90 players and the Spanish are second providing no less than 56 players.

And your point is ?

If you are saying English football is substandard, then you are quite wrong. No matter what nationality Henry represents, he still plays for the EPL (at the moment). English National team is another story. And there are many other great players playing in the EPL.

I like the EPL but I would prefer more exposure for La Liga and the timing of La Liga is an important factor why I can't watch most matches. Besides, apart from Paul Greenturner (who ain't that great when compared to Tyler and Gray), the rest of the commentators are dead boring.

Bundesliga's coverage is not bad

We're talking about EPL.. not Englishmen

EPL doesnt mean all EPL players are English..

Ofcourse since most of Arsenal and Liverpool players not majority English. I don't know if Welsh, Irish players from United not considers as English.

Welsh and Scottish are British, not English. Be it an English or British core, we do have loads. Smudger, Rio, Gaz, Foster, Brown, Wazza, Scholesy, Carrick, Hargreaves that's in the first team fold. Make it British and add Giggsy and Fletcher into the equation. Our English/ British core is very strong.

Yeah, notice that. Every England fans will notice MU is the main supplier for national team for so long. The problem is, for the last 3 seasons, it's not MU played in the final. It's LFC and Arsenal and they don't have many English players as MU.

although its not such a gd sighting for teams like Arsenal or Liverpool to enter the finals relying on foreign players,but still i feel tat they achieved that by having an Eng appetite and passion..and i believe EPL is moving in v gd direction where they train English players together with other nation players..tis gives them a great amount of exposure..bear in mind tat the Eng national team players play their football in Eng..

Barcelona did win the finals wit mixed nationality players..with Gio,Edmildson,Beletti,Marquez,Deco,Ronaldinho,Messi,Eto'o and so on..and wat i wanna rectify here is tat it doesnt matter how many Englishmen or how many Spaniards have played in the Champions League,wat really counts is the team that had won the CL..be it Milan or Barca or MU..the winner will still be considered as a certain team who had won..A TEAM game!!

good thing u said about the Eng appetite and passion..and its true..

Go post in your "lovely" club thread ..
Maybe they will entertain you more ...

Nothing wrong with his post mate. He's trying to justify his lack of interest for EPL. And I think he thinks because the EPL standard is below the Serie A and La Liga. He got a point, I got a point of liking the EPL and you should have one too. BTW, this is not MU thread. We all should have an agreement to disagree.

Yupp...there's certainly nothin wrong wit his post..act its quite insightful too..it is after all a thread not for any particular club..

I fail however to see the relevance between the no. of English players in Europe and the level of interest in the EPL. If we talking about tennis, it would be like saying Wimbledon is a boring, substandard tournament because very seldom do Englishmen make the finals.

Me too. But for some, they tend to believe that La Liga or Serie A better than EPL because the spanish and the italians played effecient, beautiful and entertaining football than us. It was just a wild guess, I could be wrong.
