Isn't that what Liverpool/Arsenal/United/Tottenham are doing though, under the guise of morality and fairness?
And yes I realise more than anyone that the Bundesliga is a one-horse race this season, but I'd still contend it's the best league overall, all factors considered.

Europe is where its at
How come you finished 3rd and 5th between league wins out of interest?
Because the Russian League is actually competitive
Last 10 years we've had 4 different winners + Spartak finished second 5 times(lol). And now we have Anzhi as a legit challenger as well.
And just so you know, Gazprom only provides ~25% of Zenit's budget. It's our league success that made us rich and not the other way around. We actually used to be overachievers with limited resources if you can believe that.
did you purposely start right after Arsenal's year to make your agenda look more legit?
and even if so when you look at each year, you will have United-City, United-Chelsea, Arsenal-Chelsea, 3 way races, and on occasional teams like Newcastle, Liverpool, Leeds and even Spurs come up in the top 4 and challenging. Leeds United were in the mix for several years and playing champions league semi finals before they decided to slit their own throat
Yes Man united win a lot, but that has more to do with mismanaged clubs like liverpool and newcastle bottling it in the final part of the season (08-09 where the scousers shouldve won but fatty had to pull out the list of FAKTS, and keegan's speech about how he will love it)
whatever the case its fun all the way through. UNLIKE LaLiga

Real have been embarassing this season. Not just 'oh no, we can't keep up with Barca.' Genuinely shite.

No?
The top clubs don't earn a whole lot more than the bottom clubs in the premier league; the only difference is CL revenues, which is a totally different beast (and every European league has to deal with that). And the PL contract is bargained and sold collectively. A club like Liverpool has clearly done very well for themselves through commercial revenue and to offset the loss in CL money. Tottenham has invested smartly to pull themselves up into regular top 4 contenders. Arsenal... well, Arsenal's still hanging in there. Etc. That's not unfair; that's just common sense business.

Well if I take it back to the year when Arsenal won then that would also be the year that Valencia won La Liga
Plus, what fucking agenda would I have? I'm not some sort of La Liga blowhard, I follow the fucking Russian League.
I agree but I also don't think it should detract from Atletico's great run of form that is not just down to how amazing Falcao has been but a great job done by Diego Simeone. He has got the team playing really well and they deserve to be where they are. No question.

Anyone seen this GIF used outside of footballGAF yet? Because to me, it has a lot of potential lol.
eh
RAWK would be in shrine-desecrating spasms for about 6 months and would then resume normal service:
"Strikeforce of

After some cursory research, ballboy is like some lab-engineered specimen of adolescent Welsh twattishness.

What would RAWK be like if they had line-ups as strong as Madrid/Barca/ManU/Juve.

Uhh, I just noticed the local donkey fucking twathead hasnt posted in ages. Did he get banned again?
Should've just picked him up by the skin of his neck, like some scruffy mutt.

Should have left him alone for the proper people to deal with it. Who the fuck does Eden Hazard think he is? If he played the game with the passion and tempo he showed in that incident Chelsea might have actually won the game.

Not defending him, but heat of the moment, adrenaline, got emotional, etc etc. He's a cunt, no doubt about it, but I can see why he would flare up like that and do what he did.

As a fellow CONCALAFF torturee, I care. If Honduras gets matched up with Canada, go to that one!
Consider his traumatising circumstances.
He moved to join the Di Matteo Project, and then RDM got slung out.
RDM's replacement was the thinnest-skinned cunt in world football, with a reality-denying attitude matched only by Wenger. A man whose genuine wish is to fiddle with his self-glorifying personal website.
And as well as being a tit, and being loathed by the fans, the idiot manager is virtually powerless.
Top managers have been deterred from taking a job at his poisonous circus of a club.
His team's 1st choice striker is a morose laughing stock.
They got slung out of Europe.
They got slung out of a cup they thought they were nailed on for.
The manager has given up on the league.
He has to share a dressing room with filth like JT, ineffectual midget signings like Marin, under-performers like Cahill.

lol, 2-seasons-per-year leagues are a joke (just like the mexican one). Does the Honduras league also have play-offs?
Great result today. Hopefully Vermaelen's injury is not serious and we get reinforcements before the window ends. Mikel Arteta back for the Liverpool game so that's a big boost for our squad and hopefully we rest some of our tired players in our FA cup game since we should be able to avoid losing that without the need of the first squad.
If the price is right, consider it done!

Hazard definitely exhibited his cuntish nature, but fuck me if that kid didn't deserve at least a whack around the ears!
His twitter indicates that he is beyond doubt an awful little self-adoring git.
The ballboys were clearly following orders from someome. That ballboy wasn't acting alone, they were time wasting galore throughout the game. Hazard is still going to suffer the consequences though.

Yes, we do. And it's recently been amended to some dumb shit where 6 out of 10 teams get into the playoffs. It's fucking ridiculous. You can just relax all fucking "season", get into the sixth spot and somehow end up as champions.
You forgot that he has a Fat Spanish Waiter as his manager.

LOOOOOL, that also happens in the mexican league, except there's 18 teams and 8 get into the playoffs. Our relegation system supports even more mediocrity.

Hmm you probably just missed the countless discussions on Overtoom's future.
okay maybe those discussions never happened

Surely the little prick could have come up with a less obvious way to waste time than flopping on the ball.

I thought Hazard pulls/pushes him onto the ball?
But then he wouldnt get these 15 mins of fame.
