Dunphy is a keen observer of the European game, heâs well informed here or he wouldnât make such a statement
His knowledge shone through last night. Crediting Klopp with bringing in a previously unknown Firminho for 30m and knowing that Poland had topped their group to easily qualify for the upcoming World Cup.
At least itâs not sterile and contrived like the English game which is a mess despite their vast financial resources.
Best in the business baby.
The English game is in anything but a mess. It has the most watched league in the world, the deepest football culture, and full stadiums up and down the country every week down to League Two and even non-league level.
Once Messi and Ronaldo are done, the Premier League will likely take over as the undisputed number one league in the world in every aspect of the game.
England are under-17 and under-20 world champions and womenâs football is thriving there too.
Their struggles to make any sort of impact at international level as well as their clubs recent underachievement at European club level says it all. Despite all that huge financial advantage, they still lag behind.
you mean sterile like the Juventus EPO injection room, or contrived like Italian football during calciopoli ?

Youâre making unproven allegations.
Creatine isnt banned is it? Itâs harmless ⌠or was it banned back then? If it was it must have been due to ignorance and Juve were ahead of their time.
The Italians couldnât even qualify for the World Cup they are so bad.

All the premier league lads were on creatine at one stage. Donât think it was illegal then anyway
Youâd be stupid not to be on it âŚ
Apart from the fact it does fuck all except taste horrible.
Creatine does fuck all? ⌠crikeyâŚ
Possibly aids recovery. Unproven in any decent trial above protein.
Wasnt there a big study done in Brazil with 20 pro players ?? It said it aides players â but often with these things itâs usually only those at elite level and your average Joe will not see much differenceâŚ
Luck of the draw. Italy were unlucky to be drawn in the same group as Spain.
I see Liverpool are playing Napoli in the Aviva this summer.
Italian ultras around Dublin 4. Oh yes. Hopefully that Slatterys pub and the 51 get smashed to bits
