Frank asks a question 🙋‍♂️ Is the Premier League STILL the best in the world? 🤔 | ESPN FC Extra Time

Yes 100% ... Middle team are great team to watch example crystal palace, west ham ..at least 10 teams in the epl plus the top 4 are not boring teams to watch..I tried to watch lower teams of the Italian, Spanish & french league ..my answer so boring..

This season is Bundesliga the best and most entertaining league

most owner teams in PL are billionaires. they are spending billions for in every season. don't blame Man City just because others are fail to keep up to challenge.

Girona alone smokes any PL team aside from City

what do you mean "still"?? They never were. We kick the yeet outta them almost everytime in European football. And yes, the direct competition between the teams of all league is only way to find out which league is better. And it's not the english league. so go sulk in the corner british crybabies

Today The Premier League is head above every other League. La Liga Santander is not even close to being a competitive League they have one team Real Madrid and that is it.

What does that exactly mean, the best league? In terms of what? Most Champions League / European Cup wins overall? Participation in European finals? In the last 10, five or three years? Number of league winners overall, in the last 10, five or three years? Point gap between league winner and worst team? Point gap between league winner and best team not to be qualified for European competition? Revenue or global viewership? Number of Balon d'Or winners in the league? Number of international players? And to which degree does the performance of the national team play a role in that? Another measure? What does that mean, to be the best league? Is there a trophy for being the best league?

Premier League = Man City League

Frank asked a pretty good question and I was interested in the debate, but you other guys mess it up! 🤦🏾‍♂️

Me, as a Bundesliga watcher, still thinks the Prem has the most quality per each squad and still is the most difficult league to win, no doubt. But due to the number of games they have with all these "unimportant" cups they slowly tire down and weaken their teams. That being said, in european competitions you'll always need more than just a squad that is worth alot of money. You need a TEAM, not individuals and you to have a high level of respect for the badge and the fans, so that's why many historic clubs will always have a certain advantage in Europe compared to "Spurs" or "Arsenal" even if their squad is valued less. Secondly, I do think Serie A and the Bundesliga are getting more and more interesting to the rest of the world again, even if they're maybe not as strong financially. To finish off my long statement, is it the best in terms of competition? Yes! Are they as dominating in Europe as their budget would suggest? No and I dont think they ever will be.😅

It's them Turnips what's in control of VAR .just slip em a 5er n they'll turn a blind 👁

And the british empire is the best too right?

PL the best?Delusional

PL is entertaining to watch but not effective in Europe. Right now they have only City who is top and problematic. Everyone else is a maybe imo.

I think La Liga is the Best League in the world, then EPL comes in at number two, Serie A is third, Bundesliga is 4th, and 5th is debatable.

The average points required to win epl are higher than anyother league in the world. So, yes. Epl is the best

Hahahahahahahahahahha sois los mejores en creeros los mejores.

Oh you mean the league which generates billions more than everyone else and is the top viewed league globally? Pfffff no no.

Most popular? Yes! Richest?Yes! Best? Never been!

In the span of 30 years, both Italy, Spain and Germany have had international success. Meanwhile England hasn't won anything in 60 years or so? If anything, its foreign players who carry the PL. Time and time again, the PL gets ridiculed in European competitions, what a joke. PL is and always will be overrated.

The Argument is getting rediculous. People have to aknowlage that there is not an definitiv answer which league is the best. Its changing every yesr and right now the english is obviously not the best if they straight up loose to all other leagues.

To me it's never the best it's never been the best cos they never had a good national team, not best legends ,they don't play better football than la ligua and never fare better against the Spanish teams even italians

Yes 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Calm down Frank 😂

"best" is subjective, biggest is not, it's the premier League

This idiots think RM will beat Bayern. 😂😂😂

Guys Guys Guys ... these are pundits, they "sell" their product, nothing more. They have no clue about anything, making any predictions is futile anyway. They all predicted Arsenal and City to advance, it was a certainty for them. Kate Abdo predicted every single quarterfinal wrong!!! Dont get angry at them, they are only show hosts!

In terms of competition & how watchable it is, Yes PL is the best league. That doesn't need to have anything to do with how many teams go deep in Europe.

Of course the prem is the best league in the world but the difference isn’t as big as it should be when you look at their financial advantage. A team doing well in the premier league doesn’t mean that it can walk over other European top teams.

People are getting the idea of what the best is wrong....its not about which league dominates more in europe....its about the games...there r a lot more blockbuster games in the pl than in other leagues....its a lot more entertaining....yes u can say tht man city win the league almost every year....but it has been only recent dominance like any other era in pl....in other leagues the same club has won the league a lot more in a row....nd it aint like the title is decided in January where they r like 15 points ahead in the pl....there is always a title challenger.....which tends to extend to the last day....

I don't see how you can argue that it's the best league when they are unable to consistently dominate in Europe across all the competition levels.

It was never the best but the most competitive

I would like dortmund to win the Champions League.

Loool EPL play with their wallet .. the remaining leagues play football.

It is debatable if EPL is the best in the world , but I personally think EPL Refs & VARs are one of the worst in the world . Thus , it cannot be the best til you get the ref mess sort out .

The truth is only Man City are a top team (arguably the strongest) though weaker than last season. The weakest Bayern in decades outplayed Arsenal.

Yes There is nothing that can come close to premier league There is a 1 team league - which is below average. There are 2 leagues that consist of 2 teams only - bush leagues.

The question is best league not whos won more champions leagues . Obviously it still is the biggest league . Its quite embarrassing when youve won all the european trophies but still no one watches your league

Premier league is not even in top 3 in my own opinion.

This year Bundesliga is the best league....the super powerful leader Arsenal was a joke against the worse Bayern in 13 years.....La Liga Champions is Barcelona, that says a lot about how bad that keague is.

Epl is miles ahead of farmer’s leagues like la liga, serie a, and bundesliga. Epl outspent all of them

EPL spends more money than any other league. It has the best players and has the best quality. Every player would happily leave Dortmund in a minute for any epl team. A lot more money and a lot higher wages and better quality. Anyone saying leagues who can’t spend are better than epl doesn’t know soccer

Craig is so ignorant...he doesnt watch games....Soermund is the best offensive team in semifinals, rhe amount of plays they produce at any moment is insane.... They have a big opportunity to win it all, specially because Madeid us gaebage, they cant olay football and Bayern have some weakness in defense despite their great attack. If Dortmund beats PSG they jave like 40% of chances... Also Frank ralking about the past but bot the present. Dortmund can win or lose but they are way better team than PSG their probabilities to advance there are huge.

Most of you commenting on here don't understand the competitive nature of the Premier League. It is why the English clubs struggle in European competitions because the other countries teams come more rested after easier matches. The EPL is a grind week after week while teams like RM, FCB, BM, PSG waltz thru most of their league matches.

Man utd won Under 17 won PL this season .. developing young player question was stupid.

The premier league is the most money and is probably the most financially competitive league but that doesn’t mean the best league. It definitely had the most potential to be the best.

EPL clearly not the best league this season. Yeah, they have been, but not this season. Its not a discussion on which team is best, but the whole league. German and Italian teams have done way better in Europe than EPL. The only EPL team left in european competition just got hammered by Olympiacos too. Just because the best teams in a league are good, doesent mean the league is the best.

I think Dortmund would have a bigger chance to beat Madrid on a final than PSG. PSG will play like any big team with pride does against Madrid, while Madrid parks the bus and get them in the counter. That's how Madrid wins so much UCL, they will play like Italy. Dortmund would probably not show initiative to make Madrid to play like a big team and that's where they lose.

What is this “best” thing? Most popular perhaps, but that does not necessarily make it the best. Just like comparing different anything, some are better in certain aspects, others in different aspects. But non of these aspects should be singled out as making the “ most popular “ as the best.

Those 3 on the studio are the most garbage pundits I have ever heard
