Serie A is the best:

1. They have the most talented players in the world

2. They have a constistent act of playing great.

3. AC Milan are the Champions

4. They will have more fans the rest of the world next year with Juventus back.

5. They have players from Brasil, Holland, Spain, Italy, Iran, England but EPL has mostly only English players.

6. Their the league of the International World Cup champions Italy.



FORZA SERIE A

Well look at Parma getting promotion in the 80s and winning the UEFA twice in the 90s.



Look at the Italian national team winning the world cup.



Look at the coaches to come from Italy like Capello, Lippi, Mancini etc



Then look at how the English league needs foreign managers to outclass other leagues in the champions league.



In the last two years an Italian manager has won the world cup, an italian manager has won the champions league, an italian manager has won the serie a & an italian manager has won la liga.



A scottish manager won the english league, a portuguese manager won the fa cup & a spanish manager was trying to win them the champions league.



Italy produces the best players and best managers, therefore surely the best football.



Once the crowd trouble get sorted out (and you can do that) what will the English complain about then?



Your style, your talent or your medals?



Forza Italia :-)

your league is also known as the match fixing league so how can it be taken seriously

friah , prefer man u , sounded better , stop arguing with the guy , yes we have the richest , most talented players, why do all the foreign players want to come here ? (£££££££££££),i think the tactic and passion might work in serie A, but dosen"t work on the international scene judging on your poor showing against England during under 21"s ( because we played so well in the first half we ran out of steam in the last 15 Min's), by the way 2-2,and because of the score last night you were knocked out of the competition , any way take care , off to work .............. ENGLAND..............ps, thanks for complementing the epl, and your English is fine ..........

Both have Totally different styles of play.....really hard to say which is better.....

But

I think right now La Liga is shaping up to be the more exciting league to watch at the moment.....

This is the Last weekend....3 could still win La Liga.....4 teams fighting relegation......and UEFA Cup spots are still up for grabs......

You have answered this question for yourself. The English Premiership has more attacking football than defencive than in the the Serie A. I like to watch both leagues, ma mi piace molto a Rugby. As for your English, it is better than some of the English users on the site.

Hard to say which one is better. English is definatly better to watch and has alot more strengh in depth! Italy has a better tradition for bringing through youngsters and buying talent from lesser football contries and devolping them. The money now in the english game is going threw the roof which will probably mean the league will get even stronger. In conclusion England for pure entertainment. Although Kaka is the best player in Europe right now!

Serie A is more tactical, and the Premier League is played at a much faster pace. I have been bored to bits when watching Serie A and La Liga matches after watching Premier League matches. 4 Serie A teams were penalized for match fixing, with Juventus being sent down to Serie B, so the Italian Serie A are not better than the English League.



In addition, the Premier League teams has more financial resources than most other teams in Europe, the best talent have been lured to the English League.



Three English teams played in last years Champions League semi finals.

The two league is different but I think the english league seems to be a bit more anticipated, because the speed of the game, and result, the productive football. The italian league and the spanish league however is about the style and techique, the beautiful football. =]



They're seeked for different reason. Much more talented players feel more challanged to be in the Serie A and La Liga, and better strikers usually stays in the English league.

for not being the richest league in the world, serie a is really good and fun to watch. some of the best players come from this league and i like the style of play. im not too attracted to english soccer (sorry epl fans!) just becuase i like serie a and la liga better. as for the fans, both sides seem equally passionate and crazy. i do agree with you. and btw, who cares about the fixing crap. that was up top, not the players. the players are who youre watching and rooting for.

English people can feel better by keep saying about the fixed matches. why don't you take a look at the Brazilian football and how messy it is, that doesn't change the fact that they are the best. Start winning something without the biggest luck ever seen in a finale or without 32 dead people or with 2 goal right at the end, or something with black and white imagine. only in the last few year England started to keep their best player in England, the best Italian player ONLY leave Italy when they are to old and know that no team would pay them as much as before. Start winning and stop finding excuses.

I think the premiership is better as it had more fast paced strong excitment in play it is the most watched and richest league in the world and they have alot good player's in the league's and you have to be very good to play in that league look at shevchenko the king of serie a comes to the premieship and get's taken apart and becom's a flop



the italian league is still good but its 3rd in the best league's as la liga is 2nd best league the serie a has gone down hill no offence but the play is rather slow and tight score's and with the match fixing it reall went down



1.the premiership

2.La liga

3. seria a

I'm italian too!

I think there are four championships better than the other.

There are Serie A italiana, English Premier League, Ligue 1 française and Liga espanola.

Serie A is more open for a number of teams to be champions (Juventus, AC Milan, Inter, Roma, etc...), while the Premier League is a two horse race (Man Un and Chelsey) which is boring.

I don't know why you say its funnier, or passionate?? Some Italians die of heart attack when their team looses a cup, can't get more passionate than that!

I would say both leagues are good... and for those of you who say that italian league is know for its match fixing problem.... what about the problem in england on illegal transfers???? have you heard about it?

some of the illegal transfers:

Chelsea: Drogba, Cech, Essien

Newcastle: Emre, Boumsong, Faye and luque....

and there are several more... SO I guess your EPL isnt that nice and clear of problems at all uh?

Every league has its own problems... However, EPL is the richest league in the world, followed by the italian league...

For me the best league in the world is the italian, just because it has been the best league more times than any other league....

No, I would say the EPL is the better league at this time. In saying that, I go further and say La Liga is better than the EPL. Of course it's all a matter of taste (or favouritism if that's your criteria), but for me it's simple....1) La Liga 2) Epl 3) Serie A.

Your English is fine don't worry about it

i think the English premier league is better than the serie a

because:

there clubs don't fix matches

i do agree with you that the epl is probably the richest league in the world

alot of world class player play in it

but some players like shevchenko keleberson and many others just cant play in the premiership

sheva is a 30 million pound flop (who cares though i support Manutd!)



there is also alot of violence in the serie a

a police man got killed this year and the should have been avoided



the Italians should sort out its security the way the manu fans were battered was disgraceful



have a nice weekend







What hooligans?

the way i see it we were beaten by the italian police

are u an as roma fan?



sorry!

yes but we have (the english) have controlled hooligans now

but the italians havent thats my point

No. Mabye some teams like Liverpool and Arsenal can compete with the Italian Serie A but not all of them are that good.

your english is fine stop apologising.



@Sasan-1)it's Brazil not Brasil 2)just name me one italian team has an Iranian playing for it. NONE. I like the Serie A but which Iranians plays for it,just name them to me.

i don't think so, football is a sport and is enjoyed everywhere around the world by the people, so if its played in Italy or England....its still the same rules......and played and enjoyed in the same manner.....football also played anywhere invites voilence clashes between fans which is seen on both sides..so at the end of the day its football who wins not the place in which its played.....so just enjoy the game and always try to play fair!!!....good luck......oh....i almost forgot to mention....Italian men are....Mamamia!!! delicious!!!

Well no sorry :) I don,t watch the parochial teams in the UK. Prefer the mainstream Scottish teams. So your Italian Serie A would never play them country bumkins down south.

i'm part itallian too!

but both leagues are very different

first,one is in england and the other one in italy

in england,the fans are more passionate about soccer and fight and make sort of clubs (like the movie hooligans)

in italy,soccer is really different, fans don't fight like english people

the teams are different to

english teams are known better than the italian teams

but italian teams are much better than english teams

that's all i have to tell



VIVA ITALIA!!!
