No easy games in the PL

Is this the biggest myth of them all?

I remember watching City at the London Stadium last week, and while City were making them look like school boys all i could think to myself is "no easy games in this league? umm yes there is, and this is one".

Most teams who faced Swansea under Bradley won without breaking sweat, Chelsea and United have recently gone to the KP and won no drama's.

Whether there is more harder games then other league's is another debate, but there is most definitely a lot of easy games in this league.

well...potentially Chelsea's next 7 fixtures are "easy"

Including Wolves in the cup....but good lead or not, I aint letting on that bandwagon stop at my station

Not saying we should assume victory before kick off, i wouldn't do that even if we were vs Redcar U16s.

Doesn't change the fact there's many easy PL games.

Barca and Real

Half those teams players would be taken care of by the weather alone. They couldn't hack it in this league week in week out. Tbh I think only the German teams could keep up with the pace and work rate of it. I actually think Bayern could slip straight into the mix.

Real looked shook right up by the weather when they went to Anfield

Barca have shat on every English team they have played since Hiddink's Chelsea in 2009 (including us in 2012, we were battered, i truly believe the CL for us that year was written), you think they wouldn't do the same to Sunderland or West Ham?

City beat Barca this season

But city are the best, Paul. It says so on the receipt.

Nor did Barca Arsenal in either leg against Arsenal in 2010/2011

They were two of the most one sided games you'll ever see.

As if people think Barca would struggle in the prem. they regularly turn over England's finest.

But people think they'd struggle against shiiiiit teams like Stoke, Palace and Sunderland.

Spanish teams doing so well in Europe just shows how weak their league is. English teams go out early in Europe because the Prem is so tough. They even have to go out of the FA cup early because the Prem is so tough. 19 teams have even resorted to going out of the Prem this season due to the Prem being so tough. The fact that only one team is left battling for the title goes to show just how tough and competitive it is. Much more so than El ligo or the like where anyone can still win it, it's that easy.

The traditional difference with the PL and some of the other leagues is the officialating. There is a level of protection in LL that Barca and RM take advantage of. It's maintained in the CL, but to the clear frustration of our interational managers, it is not necessarily the case in the PL.

The Arsenal vs Barca home leg wasn't one sided and the stats back that up.
