    The quality of other sides has no bearing on whether the standard of the Prem has dropped.

    well you cant say the premier leagues standard has dropped and point out the standard of defending from the champions, when you are comparing to other leagues where the exact same thing is happening :laugh:

    When I said the standard of the Prem had dropped, I didn't reference any other leagues at all:

    Doesn't mean that the rest of the league is a terrible standard.

    Defending is a dying art in general tbh.

    Let's not pretend Valencia, Atletico and Malaga are poor.

    Obviously Malaga are fucked for a few years, but Valencia and Atletico are certainly decent sides. It's just the gulf between Madrid and Barcelona is so huge and that comes down to the government's intervention in football as well as of course other factors such as their marketability and just in general being the two historically most successful and largest teams and continuing that dominance.

    I reckon in terms of quality of matches and what not, A League is top 5.

    If by "quality of match" he means how exciting a match is to watch, then maybe he might have a point.

    I reckon you could find at least 20 African countries where the football is more exciting to watch due to the high chances of a gorilla running onto the field, or of the ball hitting the posts and the posts collapsing.

    That is of course a hairy pile of bollocks, but tbf if you're Australian it probably looks that way because the league comes to reflect how the people there think the game should be played.

    I know a lot of English people think Spanish football sucks because they like to slow the game down to bore the other team into submission, fall over theatrically in response to moderate gusts of wind and roll around clutching their face for five minutes to give themselves a breather. And Spanish people think English footy is shit because half the players don't know what a first touch is and they let the defenders away with constant cynical fouls and reducers because footy fans still have a pathetic obsession with masculinity and "no one wants to see" someone get sent off (hint: yes we do).
