Spain leads the UEFA coefficient with a comfortable lead in, but finds out things moving. For the Bundesliga will be out soon for the first time since 2000, back before the English Premier League in second place.

ollowing the departure of all English clubs in the knockout stages of the Champions and Europa League football teams since 1998 are in the original score for 2015/16 for the first time in second place with 0,858 points ahead of the scarce island clubs.

With Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal failed three English clubs in the first knockout round of the Champions League. Everton resigned as last Premier League team of the Europa League on Thursday.

Meh draw. It could have been much more interesting.

I hate seeing replays of matches that happened earlier.

If England doesn't get it together, Italy could overtake them within a few years as well.




But the Premiership is obviously da bes

Top to bottom the EPL and Bundesliga are the best.

La Liga is the strongest top heavy wise.

Even though Bayern has been dominating the teams in the Bundesliga are very very good and play high level soccer.

Warren Barton says it is all the time. I don't have any reason to believe he would lie about it.

The prem is shooting itself in the foot with no winter break and shitty scheduling and less rest for teams that play in Europe. It's a huge disadvantage, and if you argue otherwise you're a fool.

But it probably won't change because the British always think they're right, and they don't want to mess with the boxing day tradition.

It'd be interesting to see the overall revenue hit with all the English clubs being out at this point. Has to be somewhat significant TV wise.

I still think it's more cyclical than anything and the fact that Madrid and Barca possess two once in a generation players, both in their prime.

I can't calculate the UEFA co-efficients myself, but Germany will overtake England the way things are going. Spain have 96, England 80 and Germany 78.

I won't change because MOOOOONNNNNNEEYYYYYYY. The premier league owners are laughing all the way to the bank every year, the xmas break gives the Premier League an edge over all over major leagues.

Time to channge the league cup and reduce the fixture congestion, it's BS for English teams in Europe and England team, but the PL will never allow it.

Why couldn't they do a break before or after holidays and keep boxing day/holiday run?
