    Are Italian clubs not pressed for results as well? They have similar fervency around their rivalries to England, but their academies are poor. And they’re a neighbor of France...

    But Monaco won the league two seasons ago, whereas Juventus is working on 8 or 9 straight.... You’re picking apart tour own argument.

    So on top of the advantages I’ve already mentioned, Ligue 1 is also more competitive than Serie A?

    Oh, so now Monaco winning Ligue 1 wasn’t impressive. And they didn’t win because they had great players, but because PSG and Lyon are weak.... You’ve killed all your credibility. No need for us to engage any further.

    There was more talent on the pitch in that matchup than can be found in any Spanish match up that doesn’t involve Barca or one of the Madrid’s.

    Lyon, Monaco, and PSG are pressed for results but they have three of the strongest academies in Europe...

    Our league isn’t weak. The Netherlands doesn’t produce half of France’s talent, nor do their talents regularly reach the level of France’s best players.

    “Domestically and in Europe” I.e. Monaco won a league title only two years ago, on top of appearances in the semi’s and quarters of the UCL in recent seasons. Further, Monaco also developed and sold Mbappé over that span. Keep up.

    Brazil is a footballing country. Arguably the very best. The United States is not. I repeat: we’re you only trying to expose you’re ignorance and bigotry? Because this is basic stuff.

    Croatia’s talent development isn’t anywhere close to France’s. Your argument falls flat there.

    Because I don’t trust that someone from Arizona has a solid grasp on how good Strasbourg or Amiens are. Why did you feel the need to stereotype the socio-economic status(I.e. completely unrelated to football) of Rio and Brazilians in response? To safeguard your fragile ego? To expose your...

    I’m going to pose a very simple question that people here regularly fail to answer: How is the French development system so successful if Ligue 1 is so bad? How are their players becoming so good, so regularly, if the football they’re playing is so poor? Why aren’t English academics similarly...

    You apparently lack reading comprehension as well. Awesome display here, mate.

    Monaco’s success domestically and in Europe past 5 years > every club in Italy not named Juventus We’re dealing with facts here. Your ignorant opinions hold no weight.

    The best EPL players this generation are from Ligue 1: Hazard and Kante Which is why it’s difficult to take your arguments seriously, given how obvious your ignorance is.

    Lyon > Napoli Monaco over the last 5 seasons > Every other club in Serie A You aren’t fooling anyone.

    I don’t see how questioning someone’s footballing acumen is comparable to stereotyping someone’s socio-economic status. You probably aren’t the brightest though, so I should adjust my expectations. Carry on.

    Only three clubs from Spain play in the UCL every year. The problem is many posters here want to take the success of Barca and the Madrid clubs and extrapolate their level to the rest of Spain.

    Matthijs de Ligt

    Your mistake is assuming that because Barca and the Madrid's are awesome that their level extends to the rest of Spain. It doesn't. Nor is there's anything supporting the notion that the mid and bottom table clubs in Spain are superior to their French, German, or Italian counterparts. I.e...

    The infrastructure of Italian football is so bad it that I no longer take the notion that Serie A is better than Ligue 1 seriously. Stadiums, finances, academies, talent development, broadcasting aesthetics-- All lean towards France. The sole, tangible advantage Italian football has is...
