Too much interruption was the main focal point of my comment about La Liga not being easy on the eyes, it’s a very special league, but I do feel it is a league which does not promote enough physicality, which is a shame, it could be a much better league if it was allowed to flow more and there was a bit more physicality within the play. I have to say, in the matches I’ve watched there is far too much simulation, which at times forces me to abandon watching it.
The representatives does seem to change every season, but the last few seasons, I’d have to say English teams have looked stronger, Arsenal for most of the game (minus their cheating) looked much better than Barcelona and that was with ten men, I’d dare say if it wasn’t for Henrik Larsson’s involvement, Arsenal probably would have won the Champions League, they also knocked out Real Madrid, who were pathetic in both legs and Villarreal, you are of course correct, both nations house two of the best Leagues in the world, but I do feel English dominance may well be back on the horizon and this season’s final could well be an all English final, personally, I would liked a Liverpool vs Bayern Munich final, but that’s just me.
I think a lot of English people and Spanish people will say their leagues are better, I suppose when you only watch your motherland’s league for a long period of time, you are bound to be bias and are bound to find it difficult to watch other leagues, I certainly found it difficult to appreciate La Liga when I first started watching it.
