QUOTE(bwan @ Jun 14 2007, 03:54 PM) 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. In the end it's subjective. It's just like how some people prefer Paella over Pasta or Fish & Chips.

QUOTE(bwan @ Jun 14 2007, 03:08 PM) 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. What is he trying to justify?? His post doesnt make sense at all .. We're now talking why ppl dislike EPL .. EPL teams @ English players are totally different stories..

There is a hypocrite in our midst I see. He seems to have missed the point that people don't always have a preference for the most successful league. If we all did, won't that make us glory hunters?

cant find any reason to hate EPL, however i have few reason not to like EPL, 1. Which one of the world best player in teh last few years is playing in EPL [Ronaldo, Zidane, Ronaldinho?] .. Maybe C.ronaldo will change the history =) 2. EPL used to be league with all team playing long pass, except Arsenal, 3. imo EPL is not the best, but the most watched and most expensive game

The problem with EPL is tht they are too physical minded and majority of the players are not skillfull enough .?! The game can sometimes tend to be too boring .

I like the EPL. This is where you see the fans very close to the pitch. Where there are no fences. Where you can clearly hear them singing and understand what they hear (although it can be blurry).
This is also the league where you can see streakers (male or female fans running inside the pitch naked and doing something stupid..). Anyway, outside the EPL there's this mad geezer named Jimmy Jump and he is a barca fan. He has intruded the pitch many times such as throwing the barca flag at Figo during Euro 2004 finals, threw the barca shirt with HENRY 14 to henry during the champions league finals 2005-2006 etc. He is mad and has a philosophy about doing it.. visit his website for more info: www.jimmyjump.com
Anyway EPL matches are played during nice time hours for asian viewing. Well.. almost all of the matches..

The EPL is indeed a very physical league and this is one reason why I like it. As far am I'm concerned the physical nature of the game is what makes it competitive. You run someone off the pitch and they'll be gunning for revenge. This is what makes it a man's game. I hate pansies that go down at the slightest hint of contact and whines to the ref like little school girls that had their lollipops taken away by the school bully.
I have read a couple of comments stating that the EPL is too technical and there is less skill on display. Are you sure you aren't confusing yourself with the England national team? If you look at the top sides, how many English players are in the starting 11? The vast majority of these teams consist of foreign players. Is the league really technical? I doubt so. The game is often played at a really high tempo at both ends of the pitch. How is this technical? In fact, the Serie A is more technical in my opinion with the ball often played on the deck, with teams stroking the ball about looking for openings. If anything, the EPL is more direct.
