^ I wouldn't say that. I haven't seen too many teams park the bus in La Liga. In the PL, teams know when they're in for a thrashing and they accordingly defend with 10 men behind the ball, rather than try to 'play' football. And a lot of crunching challenges can go unpunished in the more physical and faster-paced PL.

That said, you could not expect a 5-horse title race in La Liga in the foreseeable future, like it is in the PL this season. In every other season as well, there are 3-4 teams involved and on their day, any team can beat any other team. The same does not apply to La Liga. There is a biiiig chasm between Barca & Ream and the rest of the 18 teams who are simply fighting for 3rd to 16th place in the league.

Agreed, but I still think they will be top 2 if they play in the PL, not by this margin perhaps but still be.

PL ain't a 5-horse race. Spurs and City for the title? Oh please. Chelsea? Good team but sorry, but they are out of the title race in January. Arsenal? No steel. It's a one-horse to the finish line all the way. I can guarantee you Mancs will win the title without sweat.

^ If you look at the fixtures, almost every team in the top 5 (barring Chels and Arse) will play each other once/twice (Chels vs Mancs) from now till the end of the season. That could easily cause a dent in the points tally for the leaders and allow the rest to catch up a bit.

Chelsea 2-1 Arsenal in the FA Youth Cup a couple of days ago.
