Which is the best league in the world?
Assume, for the sake of this poll, that the top three leagues in the world are:

Premier League
Serie A
La Primera Liga

Freddy Adu has made it clear that he considers the Premier League the best in the world and wants to play there one day. Personally, I really enjoy the pace and passion of the Premier League. However, I admit that the Serie A and La Liga have their outstanding characteristics.

Which league is tops for you?

I can watch EPL matches all day. The fans are amazing, the style of play is just fun to watch. I wish we could play that way (please hit the ball to open space).

Watching 'Boro hand it the Man U was just fun.

Serie A reminds me of the mexican leagues...a lot of acting (Sorry Jake).

I love La Primera Liga for the just size of the stadiums and the pocketbooks of the "owners."

Pie in the sky. Keep on dreaming Freddy. But don't forget where you actually play in real life.

I'd say the Premier League overall is the best.

However I think Italy's Serie A is the most fun to watch. They just seem to be more dramatic and the fans have more freedom to show off.

A side note:

I always love watching games from Argentina because their announcers always seem to be so good.

I can't bring myself to watch games from Mexico because for some reason they make me want to throw up.

For me, it's Argentina. I get so bored whatching what money can buy. Watching Chelsea, Madrid, etc play is worse than watching the Yankees (unless they lose). Bundesliga is way too defensive, same with Italy. The Euro game in general is too money oriented. Sky News reports more on the transfer fees than the scores. Tribalism has been replaced with commercialism, it's the epitome of bland globalization. I think Argentina has the most passionate fans and players in the world. Their superstars are home-grown, they have a true love for their league.

Nice, but this picture shows that some MLS supporters clubs aren't far behind:

The Serie A has fans?

I'd got with La Liga or Bundesliga. England's fun to watch but there is way to much emphasis in the game there on just go-go-go-go-go-go-go-go.
