The league isn't that bad. Ligue 1 clubs have done just as well as La Liga clubs in Europe the past two seasons. And that's without getting that much help from PSG.
You are saying that since Messi plays there now. [emoji3] Ligue 1 team hasn't won a CL or EL title since OM won CL in early 90s. That's a ridiculously long drought for a "Top 5" league. Last year RM won CL and Villarreal made to CL semis beating Bayern and Juve. Atlético made QF beating Utd. This season La Liga has struggled in CL, but Ligue 1 teams haven't done any better. Pretty sure Ligue 1 was 6th in UEFA Coefficient ranking sometime last season when Portugal overtook them for a brief period and now 5th again. La Liga is 2nd in the rankings still.
Lazio - Milan is on today. I feel sentimental so I'll watch a bit of Serie A. Could be a decent game.
Osasuna Sevilla at 10 at night on a weekday. Kick off is the 25th of the month, and will be the 26th when this match is over, Spanish football league is out of their minds. No wonder 300 people is considered a significant away support in Spain, who the hell would want to rely on public transportation at a kick off time like this? You can't even tell me that it is to promote the league elsewhere, how is Osasuna Seville a marquee match? Just lazy scheduling. Kroos has been joking for years that at some point in Spain they'll play at 2 in the morning. The Premier League does every single thing better institutionally. Spanish football is its own worst enemy.
Apparently the PSG coach said in a press conference that Mbappe is the vice-captain. Kimpembe then posted on instagram a statement saying that he is not aware of him losing the vice-captaincy but will support any decision the club makes. Yikes
Both Barcelona and Sevilla out of the female Copa del Rey for fielding players with bans from the past they hadn't served. Oddly familiar.
RS will play today at the Camp-Nou without Mikel merino and David Silva. They are good team and in good shape but will be hard today in away game. They will play us in the next league fixture at the Bernabeu

Amazing. Biscuits goes in on Kubo and no card, let alone a foul and then the retaliation on him is a straight red after a VAR review. You can’t make this shit up.
minute 41 RS red card Imo yellow was enough. It was after buskuets foul, and then brian Mendez made a foul

If we win tomorrow I prefer Barca in the Semi for 2 games (home and away). Losing to them another final (Trophy) and maybe also the league, will be Catastrophic
Or we can get revenge in a bigger final than a Supercup. But as usual you’re scared and kissing their ass
The problem is that Barca much more hungry and eager than us for trophies. I said it before the final in the super Copa and I was right. Also, Barca defence this season is the best (Statistics) in all the 5 big leagues. 13 clean sheets in 17 La liga games. Just 6 goals conceded (3 of them was against us)
