Too bad the English football is still in 60s rugby league...Teams playing entertaining football like Blackpool got relegated,while Wigan,Stoke who just defend with tall players and sneak a goal here and there are still here..Same result for Hull City few yrs ago...even West Ham played well this yr.. DiMatteo was sacked,even though he made West Brom play like Arsenal...
U guys criticise La Liga as a 2 horse race..Truth is in La Liga..Almeria or Levante wont think twice before attacking Barcelona or Real or any team that matters...whereas if Wigan faces Arsenal..they just defend for whole 90 mnutes and try to sneak a point or three...
England national team will never improve if they still play this rugby-football hybrid in EPL

I just stated the truth........and just because Ford's market is less than Maruti in India doesnt make Maruti better than Ford... Earlier La Liga moved its timing to catch the South American market..now EPL has moved its timing to catch d asian market...
U might also know that there are 11 WPOTY from La Liga and just 1 from EPL
