I was reading an article about Antoine Griezmann at Atletico Madrid moving to the PL. He said he was happy and one of the things mentioned was weather in England and being happy off the pitch.

If you had the choice of playing in any league, what league would you choose based solely on off the pitch living conditions. Weather, culture, places to visit and overall lifestyle.

Spain looks pretty good, but I'd like to hear what you guys think.

China because they would pay me a lot more money

If money wasn't a factor, then MLS or Serie A

Maybe Liga MX so that I could play in Tijuana and live in San Diego.

I've heard Italy and Spain can be a wee bit racist towards black players.

Ligue 1, but only if I get to play at Monaco.



La Liga works, too.

I completely understand this. I've never even been to Europe but man England's weather just seems like it's awful.

I completely understand what he's saying, and that picture of Monaco, wonder if I'd be able to afford one of those houses on top of that cliff? How much you think those things cost?

Not sure. But I do know that since Monaco isn't under the same French 75% tax as the rest of Ligue 1, I would be a lot richer than my peers.

Let's get two houses, then.

Brazilian Serie A. Tropical climate and hot women that love soccer, not to mention getting to playing in a South American atmosphere.

You guys here are probably aware but Poland, Czech Republic, and Hungary are vastly underrated by the masses. Krakow, Prague, and Budapest are three of the most beautiful, lively, enjoyable, and affordable cities I have ever visited. Poland and Czech Republic also have very beautiful women, if you like that sort of thing.

I will probably choose Switzerland. The country has a stellar combination of weather, culture, scenery, government, quality of life, and tax rate. I also love Italy, France, and Spain but I will probably choose Switzerland based solely upon off the pitch conditions, including earnings potential.
