    Always bashing the EPL and English football.

    His comments are a joke, it's too bad someone like him is in a position of power. Most likely upset with the state of French football.

    I know! He's always talking shit about England. Just because France have a highly boring league (in my opinion!).

    I think he's afraid that the EPL will poach their players.

    I know I'm going to sound like an EPL fanboy (Which I am BTW) but i think he's just jealous because Ligue 1 is the 4th best league in Europe. Behind the EPL, La Liga & Serie A and actually probably the eriedivisie which would make them 5th overall.

    Anyone else get fed up of Michelle Platini and Sepp Twatter constantly poking their nose in? I think they just get annoyed that the Premier League manages to continue getting better and better, despite their best, most brazen efforts to damped the EPL and promote their own country's leagues.

    Just shut up and do your jobs. You've both done terrible jobs thus far.

    +1

    They just can't accept the fact the Premier league is moving on leps and bounds whereas the other European leagues are developing at a slower rate. Why don't they stop trying to put the EPL down and try building up the other leagues.

    Explain please how is it that they've done a terrible job? And can you give examples of them promoting their own leagues while bashing on the EPL?

    I can't believe Sepp would promote the Swiss league while bashing the EPL :tsktsk:

    I take it I was right about Platini since nobody answered my question eloquently.

    I acutally agree with him...... to an extent. When he says that Quatari's should invest in their own countries football, I agree with it. I prefer a home grown fan, or ex-player at the top to someone from the middle east (or anywhere out of Europe). But everything else he says is turning his argument into a huge douche of an arguement.
