Juventus619 - Seria A is a complete joke,
all teams (including Inter and Milan) are poor to say the least. In case you have'nt noticed, their are at least 4 teams in the Premier League trying to get 4th place, competition thats lacking (with the possible exception of Spain) throughout Europe. Its just sour grapes from a person who has their head in the sand. The Premier League is better in every way compared to Italy, a certain Mr Ancelotti saying something along those lines at least. You do however make one good point, in that Chelsea provide the best entertainment!
The Truth of the Matters is...
Spurs played excellent football and Wigan defended like a pub team or worse. The defense (particularly the left-back) was ripped to shreds by Lennon, he just didn't know what to do with the trickery and pace of Lennon. Lennon was able to whip in cross after cross and the other defenders like Bramble were like the keystone cops, making the matter even worse. A more realistic score line would be 4-0 (if you disallow the hand ball) because five of the goals were easily preventable in my humble opinion...as a defender, you can't stand off of players like Lennon and Defoe and not be punished...if you set an offside trap, don't keep a striker on-side especially if he has pace...when defending corners, please try and stay goalside.
It's so simple.
This is ridiculous
I cannot believe I am hearing anything but praise for a Tottenham attackin display that was one of the best I have seen in my lifetime - AND I'M AN ARSENAL FAN! And Juventus690 what your saying is bizarre as the Serie A is undoubtedly one of the worst leagues in the world - no fan passion (except with knives) and incredibly slow football - hence why none of them can make it in the EPL. And on the amount of goals just look at Bacelona last year, they were winning matches 6-0 and 6-1 all the time and scored a ludicrous amount of goals in the season - La Liga is a league in which differences in skill between the big2 and everyone else is much more prevalent than the EPL.
EPL IS ONLY FOR THE BIG 4
Totally agreed with Juventus619, the other teams are not up to standard of the EPL especially for those teams that emerged from Division Two. Not like other league as La Liga or Serie A , new contenders are really shown their quality and given their real challege toward other premier teams. Sadly but true.... only Big 4 is entertaining to watch, others are like just filling up the balance of 16 places in the EPL.
Rightly put Jerry!
Exactly Jerry! No need to say more, you summed it up nicely!

Disaster, doom, footballing armageddon? Or just a freak glut of goals and sadistic entertainment at Roberto Martínez's expense...
Why the hell are people moaning?
The whole object of a football game is to get the ball into the back of the net as many times as you can in 90 mins. It just so happend tottenham were unbelievably good on the day.
Curruption?
what the f*ck does corruption have to do with the spurs wigan game? totally off topic. geez go publish a journal article or something.
WOW
This proves how big of a joke EPL is...the only good thing about EPL is their stadiums which attracts many people....the players not it the BIG 4 are jokes.....I'd rather watch Bari and Catania than any other team not in the big 4 in EPL....even the big 4 is kinda crappy but oh well, better than nothin on TV....the only real entertainment in EPL is Chelsea...you watch a MAN U game vs any other team not in BIG 4, the possession is like 99% to 1% just like MAN U vs Everton.....and Everton is suppose to be one the best teams in EPL, nice!
why would it be
why would it be unacceptable?? This is spurs fans' wet dream and one team played extremely well, the other extremely bad. Maybe it's not as entertaining as a 5-4 win, but as an unbiased football fan, I was still entertained and hoped they would go for 10.
