being in the quarter or semi isn't a big achievement, it depends more of who you beat to get there than how good your team really is at the moment
like i said.. D league, behind English/Spanish/French league
What i like about EPL is sometimes the small clubs can be competitive against the big ones,and usually theres more than 2 clubs who can compete for the title. u don't see that in La liga for example,but of course talking about international competition it's hard to compete against real madrid and barça"Behind French league"... lmao ok. Good one. Funny how the English league is so strong yet again here we are with only 2 teams in the quarter finals (same as Italy). In fact last year Juventus were in the final and no English team was close. The English are delusional when discussing club football. Italian football is still up there with English football. Spanish football is clearly at the top. And I will laugh off any argument you make that English football is ahead of Spanish.

It's so weird a world cup without Italy and Netherlands D:Netherlands should be 100% in the quarter-finals; they played the final in 2010 and took third place the World Cup after in 2014. It's going to be a huge fest coming summer, already getting excited for orange to take over the streets.
SIKE, I'm with you brother guess I'm going to be watching the UFC too.
Most of their players, especially Juventus are not Italians.Absolutely not dude. Roma and Juve are in the quarter finals of the Champions League, and those are clubs anyway. Napoli is excellent also. The league is very competitive. I could provide a list of current great Italian footballers but it would take ages. They were severely let down by their manager, who was immediately fired. He is not at the same level as Antonio Conte.
It is very difficult to qualify for the World Cup in Europe. It's like the LW division.

Italian players are mostly bench players and role players, no real talent. After Pirlo, Italy has become mediocre, no real replacement, no world class. Just like Netherlands they're in transitional period.
Dana White, the most famous MMA president of all time, mentioned once that UFC is bigger than soccer,
No, he said it was globally bigger than American Football and neck and neck with football. It's obviously still bullshit but, to be fair, American Football does have a limited audience outside North America. Whoever is the quaterback of the last team that won the Superbowl, he could walk around in London, Paris, Beijing, Tokyo... without being recognized by anyone.
I found it even funnier that people thought England would be playing in the quartersIt's quarter finals people. I'm getting a kick out of all the super soccer fans who have thousands of posts of a mma website claiming they are watching quarter final world cup without even knowing who the fuck is playing over 226
my interest in watching MMA, lead me to getting involved in the sport, but viewing wise, I think I lasted about 3 years, now i'm like someone who's quit smoking, those guys are usually more anti smoking than non smokers, MMA for me, as a spectator sport is a steaming pile of horseshit, and there are dozens of sports i'd watch before a ''Great PPV Card'' and yet, here's the TS putting it head to head with the greatest sport on the planet......
