The Premier League is more competitive but winning it is still a pretty closed shop, sown up by a couple of teams just like Spain

 

[GingerBeerMan]

Premier League is no better top 4 predictable,bottom 3 predictable, lots of boring teams with overpaid players.

Bottom 3 predictable? You could get amazing odds on the bottom 3 teams at the start of the season. You should have filled your boots if it was so predictable. Despite it still being quiet close at the bottom, it's one of the most predictable bottom 5's we've seen in the past 5 seasons. Was it one or two seasons ago 8 teams could still be relegated with just a few games left? I'd say the bottom 3 is anything but predictable.

Quite, how anyone can say the bottom 3 is predictable is beyond me, if if the same three that came up go down its not been set in stone weeks ago
