    Many made it. And you must not know any true CFC fans or be one yourself. Go to The Shed forum and you'll see there were other kid and plastic fans there who misunderstood the CWC, and the older Headhunters set them straight.

    True fans know the true meanings of certain trophies. Charlatans say dumb crap, and devalue the wrong ones.

    You are a poet when you are silent...

    Especially when you don't know what you are talking about.

    Instead, you make an ass of yourself, never mind that it is ridiculously pathetic seeing an Englishman gloryhunting for German clubs.

    It must suck to go from being a colonial power to the USA's primary lapdog. Now, British life is just about convincing, or lying to themselves, about an outdated way of life that never worked. That is the source of your inferiority complex. A huge one at that.

    Please...stop digging. Go back to your "precious" EPL and just...stop.

    In what way exaclty am I 'gloryhunting' for German clubs????????? Instead of just throwing insults at the English from the safety of your computer (brave boy) why dont you just answer the question! HOW MANY CHELSEA FANS actually went to this world cup club champions thing?? - the answer is not many! You may THINK you know Chelsea supporters but as somebody who has been a regular at Stamford Bridge since 1979 I can categorically tell you that this competition is not wanted by the supporters in England (I admit I dont know Europe as well but I get the feeling that they feel a similar way there)

    Spanish league is just a league with two teams that have alot of money, the best players aren't even from Spain
    Brazil is 1000 times more competitive and almost all players are from Brazil, big difference

    Well considering their population, and the billions of teams they have of course brasilians are going to fill the rosters. Also because Brazil isn't a lucrative place that attracts players, who would want to play in brazil? lol

    Look, the places 2--12 in La Liga would easily be contenders in Brazil.

    Anybody with common sense, the greatest football country in the world, 10 times bigger than Spain, who wouldn't want to play there?

    On the other hand you have a boring ass league in a country with a huge crisis, who would want to play there? Oh I know, players that go for money, such as Neymar, because nowadays, nobody wants to play in Europe because it is Europe, players want to play where there is money, like in Europe or Arabia, Qatar, etc.

    Are you sure about that?

    Neymar was earning 10 million USD yearly in Brasil before making the jump to europe. I am sure taxes aren't as bad in Brasil as in europe either.

    Brazil is not the BEST league but it is the most COMPETITIVE. I was reading an article that said the bundesliga was the best league, but Bayrens 20 point win ruins that.

    Yeah maybe they would be 6th place..LOL Brazilians are just horrible at football because all they do is play walking. Imagine if they ran more they would win more international titles like England, Spain and of course Portugal.
    Psst....I heard the Argentinians also have a bush league and might want to win more international titles than England and Spain.

    Sure he isn't. The best South American players will still go to Europe because 1) Money $$$$ 2) Big spotlight and international fame 3) To be the best you must play among the best. The champions league is the highest level of football in the world so the Best SA players will still go there.

    Nonetheless the Brazilian league has great parity which the Europeans league do not have, have great competitiveness and the scoring and fast paced beauty of the game is amazing. Personally love watching the Brazilian and Argentine leagues.

    That's the one and only reason that players leave south america, money. The rest are just conjecture on your part since a player can gain fame playing at home. And also going to europe doesnt mean you will become a better player.

    Key word was international fame my friend. champions league and European soccer leagues have the largest following worldwide hence why I said international fame. The best players are still in Europe. The Brazilian league is amazing I love watching it I'm not downgrading it at all.

    Marketing, professionalism and economy have more top do with the exposure the leagues get, than the actual quality of the league.

    MLB has more exposure than any other baseball league in the world, yet Japan won back to back world baseball classics with players unknown to Americans.

    Same goes for the NHL, another global sport.

    Football is the ultimate global sport, and the Brazilian league not only has the population to support a constant replacement of talent, right now it has the money to pay it's players to stay. The base of this selecao is our national league, that says something.

    Is all about marketing just like guigs said, Neymar, Lucas Moura, Oscar and to some degree Ganso and Paulinho were world wide famous before playing in any European league. In this day an age of internet and satellite cable tv you dont need to play in one league to be famous.

    I observed this and I was quite pleased to see this. I personally love the Brazilian league so I'm glad home grown players are featured in the national side unlike previous all European dominated squads. However I disagree with you on the money. The best money is still in Europe, I agree the dieheards like us will watch the Braizlian league, Argentine league, even smaller European league like Ligue 1 or Eresdivsie but the casual fans will just watch Champions league, EPL, El Classico and will only know South American players through their play at Europe. I'm not downgraded the Brazilian league I love it just pointing out why I think the elite SA still have to bolt to Europe.
