Correction - he dominated the Spanish Liga for over a decade. He did win 3 Champions League in his time at Barcelona.Messi consistently dominated the world's game for over a decade, beating your precious premier league clubs time and time and again (the best the league has to offer) but because he didn't play against the mighty stoke or big sam teams he shouldn't be in the conversation?
The spanish league has been outperform the EPL for decades by now, hell Messi's Barcelona even beat Ronaldo's Manchester United in a champions league final lol and quite comprehensively.
It’s one thing to win a cup competition - as we saw with Real Madrid winning this year’s CL final or Croatia getting to the world cup quarter finals - you can play shit and still win or advance in a cup competition. It’s another to win a league. Even more so in a league where the competition is so much more intense. (Not to forget that EPL teams don’t have a winter break).
In terms of strength of the leagues themselves, I reckon a Nottingham Forrest would be mid-table at worse in La Liga.
