Why is it difficult to have a dominant situation in the Premier League?

Where is the competition in the five major leagues, there is no doubt that it will be the Premier League. Excluding special circumstances this year, due to injuries, Liverpool can win the championship ahead of schedule, and often it takes a final moment to decide who the championship is.

Even one year, Liverpool scored 97 points and could only win the runner-up, but he would have won the championship in other leagues long ago.

Manchester City Guardiola repeatedly stated during an interview that it was too stressful to coach here and it was very challenging. The opponents are very strong every year, and if you are not careful, you will lose. The confrontation in this league is too strong.

Why is it hard to say that the Premier League is dominant? I think the most fundamental reason is the money factor.

Take the TV broadcast revenue as an example. In the 2023-2024 season, the overall revenue of Premier League TV broadcast reached an astonishing 3.7 billion euros. From Manchester City, which ranked first, to the relegated teams, each team can obtain more than 100 million euros in revenue.

And in Serie A, Inter Milan has only 101 million euros, and its revenue is not as good as the relegation team in the Premier League.

It can be seen how powerful the Premier League is in terms of revenue and benefits of money. It is simply unique, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a money-making machine.

Money can make the devil push. When a club has money, what do you want to do the most? It is to buy the best players in the world. Whether it is a strong team or a mid- and downstream team, there is plenty of money to buy good stars.

Brighton, Aston Villa, Newcastle and other teams have many talented players, many of whom are the absolute main players of various national teams.

The feeling that the Premier League now gives me is a bit like the "Little World Cup" of Serie A back then.

The Seven Sisters of Serie A were also very brilliant, with many high-quality stars in the team; even the teams such as Brescia and Piacenza also had excellent players like Baggio and Hubner, which greatly enhanced the competitiveness of the league.

At that time, the competition in Serie A was also very fierce, and a miracle was often staged. It took the last round of the league to determine who the champion was. Everyone also did their best to compete for the league championship.

According to this trend, the Premier League can be picked out from the five major leagues alone and become the top event in Europe. The more money you have, the harder it will be for other teams to catch up with them.

There is also the concept of dominance in one place. Here we should also explain that it mainly refers to the competitiveness of the league, not the number of times it wins.

Manchester City has been the top in the Premier League in recent years, winning many championships, many times, and winning many championships in the past decade, but their situation is not truly "dominant".

Other teams like Liverpool and Arsenal have caused them great trouble. The league's score has been tight-knit, and it is rarely said that it collapsed in the middle, allowing Manchester City to easily win the Premier League championship.

The real dominance of the company should be similar to the situation in Paris Saint-Germain this season.

This season, Paris' overall strength is too strong, surpassing other teams. Marseille, Monaco, Nice, Lille and other teams are not his opponents, and they have determined their advantage very early.

The gap is all-round.

From finance to lineup strength, Paris is far superior to its opponents. This is the real Dugu Qiubao, and it is difficult to find a team that threatens them in the league.

If we have to do this situation, the league will be like this for several consecutive years, so we can say that it is the dominant one and the league lacks competitiveness.

From the perspective of league operations, the Premier League is still relatively healthy, and it has truly achieved the concept of "Equal Wealth Era". Make money together, spend money together, and move towards common prosperity.

As for other leagues, what do you need to do if Serie A and La Liga want to catch up with the Premier League? We still have to start from the competitiveness and viewing of the league.

I have also watched a lot of their games over the years, and have also seen the competition between mid- and lower-stream teams. The gap is still big compared to the Premier League. The main reason is that the team plays more conservatively and not very openly, and pays attention to the technical and tactical levels, and many games will be dull.

When the league is not exciting enough, the cost of TV broadcasting will naturally not be too high, which is also a reason.

This also requires them to further enhance their management, marketing and market revenue to close the gap.
