_eRon_ Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 (edited) winning any competition is an achievement; be it a domestic league or the champions league.. its just lame to say that the EPL is overrated, c'mon, if it was overrated, why would there be 3 teams in the semis of the Champions League? this year, the english teams dominated the Champions League..please don't downplay ManUtd's achievement by saying that the EPL is overrated, A WINNER IS A WINNER, give credit to where its due, the red devils really had a hard time winning this trophy this year, because of so many factors such as injuries, controversies as well as being affected by the skeds of other competitions; and if the EPL is really overrated, why can't Liverpool win the English Premiere League lately?hehehehehe winning the EPL i think is very hard because what you need is consistency, in defense and in offense, you play so many games domestically, with cup competitions (carling & fa) & with also the champions league present, it takes a very consistent team to weather all those matches.. arsenal weren't able to maintain their title challenge because they were to inconsistent, giving up points to lesser teams, this also goes for liverpool, rafa is a tactical genius after all but what he lacks is consistency, he plays too much with the line-up hoping that each recipe he produces for various competitions will win him games.. in the CL, you have more time to prepare tactically against your opponents and you only play less games to win (winning 11 games from the group stages up to the final wins you the CL title), but your opponents are a whole lot better & there is better exposure to other styles of play from various teams in Europe..Liverpool were deserving CL champions 3 yrs ago, Rafa was a tactically genius in winning that trophy.. manutd are the underdogs in the CL final, kung baga sa tagalog, ang chelsea ang kontra-pelo ng manutd, they can easily match-up to manutd's weapons, i really hope sir alex and the red devils can conjure up enough magic to win on may 21 go manutd!!!!

On the contrary, if Grant wins it, could be the first of many towards his Chelsea career. good luck to both teams. Quote Link to comment
damaso Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 imho, if a league is rated by its top clubs - then the english premier league is definitely the best in the world at the moment. their top 4 clubs are better than any other league's top 4. however, the spanish primera liga has more depth. so if we take the quality of all 20 teams in a league - the spanish primera liga is the best. just look at the clubs not in the top 4 right now - valencia, sevilla, getafe, espanyol - all quality clubs who can make any team in the champions league sweat...

bubuy Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 manutd are the underdogs in the CL final, kung baga sa tagalog, ang chelsea ang kontra-pelo ng manutd, they can easily match-up to manutd's weapons, i really hope sir alex and the red devils can conjure up enough magic to win on may 21 go manutd!!!! what? underdogs, the premiership champions underdogs? ano ba ito, advance alibi kung sakaling "masilat?" hehehe..

duchessXI Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 anyone watching the zenit-rangers UEFA Cup final? who are your bets? syempre zenit ako as this was martin skrtel's former club just before the was transferred to liverpool this january. Besides, whod go for Rangers who style of play is disgraceful; if you noticed how they play against Barca in the group stages, youd know what i mean. Quote Link to comment
redshirt Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Walang liamado and dehado sa CL final. United. League Champs Chelski. Home Advantage. DutchesXI You'll never walk alone mate. There are a few reds here. You just need to "summon" them. I used to be the lone ENG and Man United fan here. It was a bit rough but it was fun never the less. Howard Im all for Darchevile's team.

"Russia's Zenit St Petersburg won their first major European honour on Wednesday night after beating Scotland's Rangers 2-0 in a tense UEFA Cup final. Zenit, who were much the stronger side at the City of Manchester Stadium, finally got the opener in the 72nd minute thanks to Igor Denisov and then in the last minute they doubled their advantage as Rangers pushed in vain for an equaliser."

duchessXI Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 ako magpie pa rin. hehehehe! ayus yan. saw kevin keegan on TV observing a primera liga game on the stands. looks like hes bringing in several imports to the team, specifically play-makers as as the moment they rely on long-balls and crosses to the box and apparently lack creativity; and maybe perhaps replace owen as hes not consistent up front unlike back in his liverpool days. i like KK's style of play, very fluid attacking football with a 4-3-3 formation. but sometimes he needs to think twice in reverting to a 4-5-1 if conditions permit; there are limits to it. thats how other teams beat them; they exploit them on their counter attack; the front 3 hasnt blended so well yet to remain a threat. hes got to tweak a few more if he wants to contend with the upper half of the premier league. newcastles a club rich with history with great fans, I wouldnt want to see newcastle following leeds footsteps down to League 1.
