i agree with craig.. Last time anyone other than barca or madrid won the liga was in 04 when valencia won it.. Last time anyone other than manure or chelshit won was even before that-03.. Arsenal..

In spain in last 12-15 years 4-6 clubs have won titlle.. In england only 3..

In england, mostly top 4 are always the same.. Whereas in spain, there would've been at least 7-8 different teams playing in ch league..

And madrid and especially barca play a brand of football epl only can dream of.. Arsenal only play something similar, but that too not at spanish teams level..
