Do Brits really care more about the domestic league than continental

>>74590964
he's a big guy

I think players would much rather win a cup, but ownership wants to jew more money as a higher premier league standing gets you FAR, FAR more money than getting to the Europa League Semi-Final.

It's a bit of both honestly OP.

kane?

Winning the premier league and champions league are equal in terms of how much we care, nobody gives a shit about the europa league or whatever though.

Liverpool players and Klopp were quite sad after losing the EL final

>>74591107

Liverpool are desperate for any cups though, but it's all but forgotten now for most of the nation, people still give Arsenal the bants for losing their Champions League final though, United fans still sing songs about John Terry slipping in the 2009 final

>>74591164
Don't people in Britain consider Liverpool the biggest and most successful club in the isle just for having 5 CLs?

>>74591197

Not really, that's just Liverpool delusion, of course it's an impressive feat but the nation views them as former giants who haven't won the league in 20+ years.

>>74590964
A Premier League title is much harder to win than a Champions League title, since you need to be the best team over 38 games. The Champions League just requires you to be the better team over a handful of games. Although the Champions League trophy is probably more prestigious and a good Champions League match is more memorable than a good Premier League match.

>>74591430
3/4 of these 38 league games are against teams like Burnley, Hull or Crystal palace, outside of the CL groupstage you face mostly champions and runner ups from the big 5 leagues

Wouldn't say winning a PL title is easier than winning a CL, if not look at Leicester, they walked the league last year and now that have to also play CL they are next to getting relegated

>>74591503
Teams like Burnley, Hull and Crystal Palace still park the bus, making it difficult to score against them (so the big teams will usually draw or lose against a shit team at least once a season). And because, memes aside, there are 6 teams that compete for the title, every single point is valuable. Manchester United lost the title in 2012 because they lost to Wigan. Leicester is a very special case where every big team collapsed inexplicitly while Leicester were very lucky when it came to form and injuries. The odds of Leicester winning the Premier League were 5000/1, I don't think any team winning the Champions League has higher odds.

>>74591610
You can win a league just by defeating all teams who are not in that top 6 and losing against them, in a cup you need to defeat the best teams

>>74591663
Real Madrid only had to beat mediocre teams to get to the CL final last year, before they faced a team that choked and practically gifted them the trophy. And even big teams have their off-days (just look at the difference between PSG and Barcelona's performances over both legs this year). Chelsea won the CL in 2012, but I bet that no-one would consider them to be the best team in the world that year.

Stockport supporter here, any kind of success would be nice tbph

No, because they lost the Clubs World Cup to Corinthians. They were only the best club in Europe :^)

>>74590964
They get more money from winning league than for winning champions league. Almost twice the amount I believe.

Also Brits know they don't stand a chance in CL unless City/united/Chelsea are playing. AKA the teams with almost no Englishmen. Lol.

>>74591770
I don't remember what PSG's form was like last season but City had a pretty disappointing season last year. And they still have a terrible defense.

Players probably care because at that level you care about winning as much as you can, but the owners want them to drop out quickly. But it is also true that PL teams aren't that good, Chelsea won it because they were vastly better than the other teams.

How many scudetti does juve have again m8? Lmao.

Look at Real last year or Chelsea and Lolerpools wins

You can make the CL final without facing a single world class team

>>74591998
>Look at Real last year or Chelsea
Real faced City and PSG and Chelsea faced Barcelona

If that's not world class, what the fuck is world class, Hull City?

>>74591974
Nice on m8. Juve has 2 CLs. Man U has 3. Liverpool 5. Chelsea 1. Juve would be in Europa league every year.

>>74592045
>City struggling to finish 4th in the prem
>world class

>>74591974
The reason Juventus are so good is because they can buy out every good player in Serie A. If they spent every year in the Premier League, they would have to compete for players with 6 other clubs that are either just as or a lot wealthier than them. Right now, they're better than any PL club, but if they were an English team they'd struggle.

>>74591197

man united are considered the biggest and most successful club, liverpool 2nd

>>74592069
>The reason Juventus are so good is because they can buy out every good player in Serie A
Just like Chelsea, United and City do? They keep buying every half decent player of the league

even when the pl for a few years had teams getting fairly deep into the cl/winning it a few times most people still cared about the league first

it only really becomes a thing to care about after you've won the league a few times, just looking for the next 'big' thing to win, or it's the only thing that you can use to argue you're a big club (basically just liverpool and muh history)

>>74592155
>3 clubs on the same financial level competing for a pool of players vs 1 club
hmmm

>>74592155
That's still three different clubs as opposed to just one, so the concentration of good players in Juventus is higher.

>>74592059
what relevance does any of that have with currently winning the premier league? keep your autism to yourself

>>74592069
you mean every world class team?

>>74592374
Juve would be completely outclassed. The most they'd be able to hope for is 4th place over arsenal.
And even then competing on 4 fronts(FA, EFL, EPL, whatever European comp), with a bigger league (20 opposed to 18), and no winter break. Juve would be a fucking shambles.

Every player that's been in the premier league and every player that goes there says this. It's why monsters like CR7, Bale, suarez, etc keep coming out.

>>74590964
it's a meme that teams with small club mentality keep repeating because clough said that fucking 40 years ago but probably even they know that it is simply objectively untrue in the modern globalized era of football where everyone tries harder in the CL because continental competitions is where you can gain the most customers

Manchester City were the only decent team they faced, and somehow got "lucky" to be drawn to play at home the return leg. And even more lucky the game didn't go into ET.

>PSG

Mediocrity of the highest order.

So Yes, Real Madrid face mostly mediocre teams to reach the 15-16 UCL Final.

Clubs who meme their way to a CL title and didn't win their league are not worthy of being called champions
