I agree that Spain is playing the best football right now, and it's not close. That said, I'd rather watch English football than Spanish football. It all comes down to the level of physicality. English soccer is much more physical, which is why someone like Wayne Rooney flourishes. This doesn't work on the International stage because of the way referees call it. Spanish football is a beautiful, fluid form while English football is a few guys duking it out outside of the pub.

Disagree that it's not close. Watch Germany and Holland play and tell me you aren't entertained.

The British are too stubborn to change, which is a shame because they have the resources to build exciting teams.

He'd flourish anywhere. Don't let the scouse in him fool you.
