And with regards United... We envy their attack... They envy our midfield (if Vidal ever regains his form)... The backline is... well. The less said, the better for both teams right now partly due to our injuries there. We're lucky we play in a league where the minnows don't press the shit out of defenders. We'd concede so many goals if we played in the PL with players like Bonucci and Chiellini and Ogbonna.
You're not seriously arguing that the weak sides in Italy are as strong as the weak side in the PL? Right? Relegation zone stragglers in the PL would crush mid-table sides in Serie A like Inter and Milan.
because i watch em both. lower table serie a teams are shit. straight up shit. their only thing is defending and even at that they suck nowadays. not to mention how slow and lethargic they are.
Also, they're incredibly inconsistent, which would severly harm them over the course of a season, while us and Roma pretty much manage to beat the minnows without much ado.
They play in a league where small sides run like mad, press like mad, and play for wins, rather than always parking the bus like the minnows do here. Look at how prone we are to conceding when teams actually press us. If we played in the PL we'd be incredibly inconsistent too. I bet we'd concede double what we concede now.
