Wich league is the best represented in Euro 2008?

[milad]

this season i saw all the EPL game even the lower teams and it might not show in the results but i saw some good football being played and goal scored late and the bottom of the table teams had gd games with each other it was like they had there own mini league it was only the exception of 2 teams that played shit football newcastle united and derby county

sometimes thats true. but many times when weak epl teams play each other its a boring long ball fest which finishes 0-0 or 1-0 or 1-1.

there are no austrians in bundesliga, not many polish either

again, they might have had some nice goals but not nice play.

Well for Greece Gekas, Charisteas, Amanatidis and Kyrgia*** play in the Bundesliga..

I believe PAO is one of the more represented sides at Euro

Greece: Karagounis, Salpingidis, Tziolis, Goumas, Spiropoulos, Vintra
Sweden: Nilsson
Austria: Ivanschitz

its like that in every league...not one of the major european leagues have had more than 4 teams win the championship this millennium.
Spain: Barca, madrid, valencia, deportivo
Italy: Inter, AC, Roma, Lazio
Germany: Bayern Munich, Stuttgart, dortmund, bremen
France: Lyon, Nantes, Monaco
Netherlands: PSV, Ajax
EPL: Arsenal, Chelsea, Man U

Sorry...Italy has also had Juventus as champions (twice, not including the two they were stripped of) this millenium. 01/02 and 02/03

Furthermore, the EPL is the "best" league in the world with the "best" players only because that's where the money is...it's called marketing.

I would much rather watch a La Liga or Serie A game over an EPL game. The EPL is just hyped up, and the top 4 are almost always there...

Look at Italy this year...Milan finished 5th...Fiorentina and Udinese put in spectacular performances, as did Genoa and Napoli if you watched their games!

You are right.

Lyon is the most represented side with 11 players, Panathinai*** with 10 and Bayern Munich with 9.

i don't think this really shows the best league in europe.
A better way to figure this out would be : the clubs which participated in the most prestigious european club tournament(champions league)Final in the last 10 years. italy have 12 appearances spain 8 and english 6 while germany has 4.
som1 shuld also chek the best 3 teams in the last 3 World cups and Euro cups to see which league has the most players quality wise.

UEFA cup final the last 10 seasons: 5 times spain,3 for italy,3 for england,1 for germany.

That is a good way, BUT, 10 years and 3 world cups are too long...the EPL's rise to TRUE prominence has been in recent years...really, it has only been 3 years...sure, they were good before that too, but they have become better.

I think the English teams will continue to dominate the CL for a few more years...but Juventus is coming back to take care of business

that only proves which leagues top teams are the best. how about the other 16 teams in the league?

quick question: what was up with the 99-2000 season in soccer? Deportivo, Lazio, and AS monaco all winning? Strange...

As i just realized someone else already mentioned, JUVENTUS won twice in this century my friend. SERIE A is the best out of them all. They have the most number of teams fighting for the title. There are at least 5-6 strong teams as opposed to England or Spain where it's always Man U-Arsenal-Chelsea or Barca-Real.

^^^yeah i know i dont know how i missed that

Nowadays Lazio is crap so you can't count them as a contender,

Next year it will be one of these teams, Inter, AC Milan, Juve or maaaybe Roma..

So Italy has got 3/4 realistic teams who can be the champs..
In the EPL it's the same.. Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal and maaaybe Liverpool
The SPL has only got 2 major teams and other lil teams who can suprise..
Germany has more teams who could be champ, Bayern is the biggest one, but Werder, Schalke, Stuttgard and in some degree HSV are also realistic contenders.
In Holland it will be between 3 or 4 teams, PSV, Ajax, AZ and Feyenoord.
France is all about Lyon although Marseille and Bordeaux and Lens also may have a chance..
