I agree the top 6 epl teams are great, but epl as a whole seems very unbalanced

Name another league that has six top clubs. No other league in Europe has this depth. The imbalance in the other leagues is far greater.

from now on I won't try to explain anything about cenk tosun. if he get the chance to play and be successful in everton, you still gonna be "meh" and complain about he is not bein an ubermensch. I hope someday everton qualify to be in CL and besiktas will be the opponent, then you will see overrated players of turkey which do nothing but winning against poor teams. lol.

please go on with your explanations, I am enjoying them even if I don't agree with some of them.

Spain:

Barcelona
Atletico
Real Madrid
Valencia
Villareal
Sevilla

Italy:

Napoli
Juve
Lazio
Roma
Inter
Milan

All would beat us easily.

To be honest I have only been following Bundesliga and there is an imbalance with FC Bayern winning every year :rant:

) but all other matches are pretty even.

Ultimately though, the rest of the league is crud. And apart from City the 6 aren't exactly infallible.

When I think more about it epl's balance is like this:
Man city ................... 5 teams ..........................................................................the rest.

that said ... I hope Everton will do better next season

1 is great, 4 are average to good, and the other one is a hyped-up cult which is the luckiest club in the history of the game.

This season, yep. City way superior.

That said, last season, Everton thumped them 4 0.

I am old enough to remember United and Spurs and Chelsea and City all being relegated. Arsenal being rubbish.

Our league structure has 2 CL/EC winners in the second tier of football. The first winner, I think, of the PL being there as well. Our system is brutal, and if you think the narrative will remain the same, well, I doubt it will, by hook or crook.

you don't have players like Dembele, Pulisic or Özil who can assist ... Does Everton have any player who is good in assisting ?

Walcott, but he's the only one really.

We have a creative young, winger, who has a lot of talent and skill (Lookman) but he got frustrated at not being played enough and is on loan at Leipzig.

Look just don’t feed this clowns narrative which is Tosun is good enough to play in our league or for us. He isn’t.

We should be targeting players from France Italy Spain (yes I know Sandro failed) Germany not places like turkey.

Since there is no data to evaluate Cenk's performance at Everton, the topic goes way off to comparing leagues with each other. Wait till Cenk misses wide inside 6 yard box and we can all bury him together.
