Re: Rank soccer Leagues of the world
yeah I think the top 4 are definitely:
1. England 2. Spain 3. Italy 4. Germany I think the gap between 1 and 2 are very close if not even. However both of those leagues are somewhat much better than 3 and 4. An argument could be made for Germany currently being 3rd. |

[/ QUOTE ] Wow.... so wrong. off top of my head, not necessarily in order England, Spain, Italy, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Holland, France, Mexico, Portugal... that's 10 leagues higher then MLS. I know nothing about leagues in Asia either and I don't think its all that much of stretch to consider other South American leagues being > or equal to the MLS. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think overall a good way to judge this would be to think about how well teams in the leagues would do if they switched with the corresponding team in the other league. I think Manchester United and Chelsea would do as well or better than Real Madrid and Barcelona if they switched but I think after that I would expect most teams in Spain to do better than their corresponding team. That's why I put Spain higher than England. It's pretty close though. I think Italy is a notch down for a similar reason. |

I think Manchester United and Chelsea would do better than Real Madrid and Barcelona did last year with that same league. I think they would get fewer points than they did in England. Similarly, I think Real Madrid and Barcelona probably would have gotten more points against the Premier League competition than in Spain, but not as many as Man U and Chelsea got. The main reason for this view is that I think the top teams in Spain have significantly bigger problems playing consistently. |
