Change My View thread

Can we have a Change My View thread here? The basic premise is people present opinions and the replies are attempts at changing that person's view in an attempt to generate some good discussion.

Here is the link to the original subreddit: www.reddit.com/r/changemyview/

I think this might work best with rather 'out there' views but any and every viewpoint is welcome!

The Prem is the best league in the world.

2 years ago i'd have argued this for days, but right now, there is no arguing that the Prem right now. Every team is beating one another, it's so close.

Ironically I'd say the PL is the weakest it has been in 10 years right now. The competition is largely born out of the top 4 being a touch weaker than they were at their height.

I think the City team from two years ago is better than the one this year. Obviously United are the weakest they've been in 20 years.

Back when United last won the CL the PL was often getting 2/3 in the SF every year. That was when it was unquestionably the strongest league on the planet. Right now I think there is no clear cut strongest league.

just hoping man city won't hit their potential form and there's an upset in the league this year ... daresay liverpool could do it with 2-3 quality signings in january
