Irrespective of what one may say, English Premier League is the best league in the world. It is the only league where the no 20th team can steal points off two of the best teams in the EPL for two consecutive weeks and no one would notice. (ex WBA against Man Utd and Liverpool).
La liga is a two horse race (Real and Barcelona) where the contest is more about who scores the most goals . Messi or Ronaldo and altogether 6 good games in 8 months between Real, Barca and Atleti.
Yes their two best teams have all the best players in the world but that makes the competition even more bland.

I agree. My first love for a club was Liverpool and Abahoni (during 90's). To me at that age, Liverpool was the only club in EPL who played short-passes, 1-to-1 which was more eye-catching than typical/boring European style football. Of course, over years, things blended a lot between South America and Europe.
Presently, since the trio (Mo Salah+Firmino+Mané) are doing wonders again for Liverpool, I'm rooting for them. As I'm not a die-hard fan of any particular club, I just enjoy good football (except few clubs). However, Barca, Liverpool & ManCity are my fav nowadays. Can't stand RM as they have too many star players at almost every position and any sane person cannot like what Ramos, Pepe (ex) and sometimes Casemiro do in the field
. And Ramos is considered one of the greatest defenders
.
Perhaps people forgot Maldini, Nesta, Cannavaro - the ATG Italian Defense in my lifetime.
