ya, 1 of the reason why england fail to do well in those world cup and euro is the players already exhausted from the club football...

remove the carling cup larrrrr

one interesting thing is england is still on par with spain n italy 4 number of european cup winners by country despite the congesting fixture of epl

spain - 11 real madrid 9 barcelona 2
italy - 11 ac milan 7 inter milan 2 juventus 2
england - 10 liverpool 5 man utd 2 nottingham 2 (WHAT A FKIN DISGRACE!SITTING IN DIV 2 DY) aston villa 1

but i feel the statistic 4 england could have been higher if they got winter break

Have you seen matches in Russia?

During winter, the attendance and TV rating are generally higher because the fans have holiday that time. Thats why EPL refuse to have a winter break like other leagues do.

Money has the highest priority.

yes,they play in white field,not green field,same as Danish and Swedish League
we cant see a grass in some area bcoz a lot of snow

Instead of having winter break,
the EPL fixture is even more crowded during December.
this isnot healthy for the english football.

With cup games (FA Cup & Carling Cup) around and also sometimes those unnecessary international friendly games, they got no choice but to pack the schedule in December (Boxing Day n etc)

ya la....December is the time those club earn extra money......
btw despite the winter break, i would suggest January break.....
after all the December fixture and the final epl game will be closer to FA cup final and European cup final (if any English club can reach) so that the player will not lost their touch.........

lets call that TS to kick football week in week out for 52 weeks consecutive ....
90minutes full time of soccer on saturday .... let sunday be ur holiday...
weekdays be ur training time from 8am to 4pm...

then u will know wether you nid a rest or not...

Well u gain some and u lose some...

One man's trash is another man's treasure..Higher income means more money means more transfer fund...
