This is an epic - albeit random - meltdown :lol:

Lol, you consider this a meltdown, wow just pointing out that your most competitive league, is so much considering the points difference between 1st and 2nd, its basically the SPL now, except the teams under the champions are better, well atleast this season anyway.

It is good butthurt isn't it? Can't cop the fact that Germany is reaping the rewards for sustainable football development while England takes the short-term foreign sugar daddy approach.

By England you actually mean City and Chelsea don't you?

The biggest club in England has a business model that is better than any in Europe. Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool all make a healthy profit without a foreign sugar daddy.

These teams also have great youth structures in place.

That they can also afford to buy top players from elsewhere is just a sign that the top level business models in England are actually better than in Germany.

This obviously means you get more German players exposed to top flight football but at the expense of a terrible league which has 2 good teams and a load of teams with very average German footballers in it.


Also don't forget Bayern are annoying there own fans in an attempt to stay with the rest of Europe and it wasn't long ago there were riots and threats of boycotts in the Dortmund - Shalke game due to ticket price increases.

Read the article then get back to me regarding youth development and depth of talent within a league.

Arsenal and Liverpool don't have sugar daddies. How many times have you read an Arsenal fan (not counting BM) saying they are going to buy the top talent for example?
Liverpool are owned by an investment group ffs.

The clubs develop the youngsters in the UK. United, City, Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Everton etc. all have world class development programs. The FA tried to impose a stupid 90 min rule on these clubs but thankfully that has been kicked to the curb.

Every so often we get a flavour of the month which we all have to copy. First is was Frances clairfontaine. Then it became Barcas system and now it is Germany.

Next year i am sure someone will find another system which we should copy and the clubs will continue to do what they are doing.

Plenty of good English youngsters playing in the prem.
Just another stupid reactionary piece.

Bundesliga is the most profitable league, how many debt free teams in the EPL lol

United are not debt free. So what?

One thing is for sure and that's the days of modelling after the EPL are done and dusted.

Bundesliga baby! Europameister 5

Bayern model themselves on the EPL more and more.

All seater ground named after a sponsor, more expensive tickets, corporate partners.


They just don't have the balls to let other clubs get wealthy owners and are more than happy to let other clubs struggle so they can just keep buying success.

Lol TT is delusional. The #1 team is buying half of the #2 team. Last season was a one team comp and it'll be even more so next season. At least Spain has 2 contenders.

Meanwhile in the greatest league in the world, with United having to deal in the unknown of a post-Fergie era you could make an argument for 4 or 5 teams having genuine chances next season if they dont make mistakes over the summer.

Who besides Bayern would dare to even dream of winning in Germany in 2014.

Why do you bother?

At least Wireman and the others stick up for the PL by making some decent arguments.

You just write complete bullshit.

Its all good

Grenier, Wilshere, Fabregas, Cazorla, Podolski, Rooney

And great for me as ive followed Juventus as a kid, so hes going to end up at either one of my clubs. Plus wants too stay in italy, which has been known for a while, only thing keeping us in the race, is the fact that, Juve are bitter Rivals, and they not eager to sell to them.
