Obviously each competition has its own merits and they all have a pervading stereotype. The Premier League is regarded as low on technical skill but fast and frenetic, whilst the Italian competition supposedly offers more to the tactical observer, but is low on goalmouth action.
Which league do you think is best and why? What does it have to offer that the others don’t? And are the stereotypical assumptions that abound about each competition still applicable?

Football is a game, of two halves none the less, and it has spawned a raft of internet football games that can broadly be split into two halves.
