Have this advanced stat to disprove that:

Goals scored 2014-2015

Serie A: 1024 (2.69 per match)
La Liga: 1009 (2.66 per match)
PL: 975 (2.57 per match)


And it's less "RM or Barca beating Elche 12-0 and more constant 3-2 and 4-3 exciting matches

I like this. Goals are fun and good.

Cacati in mano e pigliati a schiaffi!

This is a thread I'm allowed in so it's nice and accepting.

But the best way you can describe Italian is like chess really. Some times it's super fast and nuts, other games are boring as gently caress. As mentioned before I it's more even score lines and less getting hosed 12-1. Not to mention there are upsets at least a few times in the season.

There is lots of drama off and on the field too.

The Italian and English league are super competitive and entertaining and there's no reason to watch one OR the other. The Spanish league is terrible bellow the top 8 and the matches are boring, the German and French leagues are also decent to watch casually but Germany really suffers from an utter lack of competition, Portugal is dependant on Benfica, Porto and Sporting's matches being good because the rest is terrible, the Dutch league is better than it's usually advertised (there's no defending so there's always something going on) and lmao at the notion of following any other football league in Europe if you don't have a tribal tie to it.

And Italy is super good and it's the best product of Mediterranean life and as such anything Italian is cool and good.
