Definitely. That's the difference with Italy 'though, nowhere in the world can you find such organised minnows. Rarely is a team truly annihilated like we gave Parma a beating this season.

Regarding Ødegaard; Real Madrid and most other big clubs in Europe have been in talks with him and his father since summer.
It seems like Martin and his father spent a long time considering where to go. Has money affected the decision? Of course. But I highly doubt it's the main reason. I quite confident Real showed Martin and his dad that they believe in him and wants him to be a part of the next generation. (I think read somewhere in the Norwegian media, that his salary was exaggerated in British/Spanish media).
I've actually (unlike most of you) seen him play regularly for Strømsgodset and I am not talent scout but the talent is there
add to that, that his mentality is being praised. The kid is down to earth and his father does everything he can to keep him there. Very Scandinavian in that sense.
Oh, and training with Ronaldo, Bale, James, Modric, Isco, Benzema, Kroos and so on everyday

Barcelona and Real are always expected to remain in the final stages and now there's Simeone's Atletico but that we don't know how long will last. You're right it's not representative for the whole league. If anything the Bundesliga is far more exciting and shows better Football than all the others.
You watch a team in the midtable against one that's in the bottom and you're most likely to watch an offensive open game with good technicality, an spectable. The lower table La liga teams are abominable.

That only proves that the 3 top Spanish teams are better which we already knew. Not that the league itself is in fact a better league. It's a bit like Serie A in the early 00's.
We were no different from La Liga then where 2 or 3 of the same clubs were always top of the table. It wasn't a strong "league" as some here say. Serie A was strong in the mid 80's to mid 90's when clubs like Atalanta, Sampdoria, Torino and so on were in the same level as the big ones. Now that was a competitive and strong league.
