I’ll preface this by saying I don’t watch much LaLiga these days, so wanted to get everyone’s opinion on this.

Just watched the Barcelona vs Atletico game and while very entertaining, it looked to me like any top half Premier League team would easily dominate either side. Loads of space and misplaced passes, unorganized defending, many simple through balls or long passes lead to a scoring opportunity.

Considering these are top teams in La Liga, is the gap in quality between the two leagues getting much wider? Looking ahead with the Premier League maintaining enormous spending power over all other leagues, it will be interesting to see if this can translate to European cup domination for English teams in the foreseeable future.

Due to European competitions it's hard to happen but I'd love to see Sociedad or Valencia vs wolves or Brentford. Would be very interesting

You also have to take into account a Spanish team wouldnt play the same against another Spanish team than a english team because they study playing styles of each team... It's hard to say one is better than another, unless we match each team up one for one.

One thing is for sure there's a fuck load more dirty money being pumped into the PL but equally as much corruption in la liga. I do sometimes wish the PL had la liga refs though
