So, the champions league final is RS vs spuds and Europa league final is looking like chelski vs the arse.

Are we going to see the premier league teams dominate Europe for the foreseeable future?

All about them dollar$
 
Maybe for another year or two, looking at how much rebuilding is needed at the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG and Bayern Munich.

England should win the Europa League every year, though, seeing as the 5th and 6th placed teams have bigger wage bills than the vast majority of Champions League clubs.
 
I think this year's good showing by English clubs is more of a fluke than the start of a period of domination.
Looking at the league form of Tottenham, how on earth have they reached the CL final? Are they really that good? They only just scraped through the group stages! (As did the rs).
Arsenal have hardly performed brilliantly in any competition and they just can't play away from home. How are they within 90 minutes of a final?
You could almost say the same about Chelsea.
I'm happy to eat my words if we have the same scenario next season but I just don't see it happening.

Wouldn't surprise me if we've beaten Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea in the last few weeks come Sunday.

Weird season.

The RS have lost 4 games in the CL this season, I think Spurs have lost a few too. I think this season is a quirk rather than domination

Interesting point about those lost Liverpool games, away from home in the CL they have been awful.

It's just English teams not under-performing for once. There should be 2 English clubs in the semis every year given that the Spanish and German leagues have 2 teams max.

Our own league has been a mess up until recently, it wasn’t too long ago that a random mid-table team won it.

Bundesliga is on its arse.

La Liga is becoming a one horse race subject to Real’s decline.

Serie A has been a one horse race for about 8 years.

Ligue 1 - LOL.

Any decent Eredivisie side will just get picked apart by the vultures as soon as they appear on the radar.

The likes of Liverpool I can’t see losing any game against any team in the world over two legs. City were only knocked out by a fellow PL team. The Premier League could well be set to dominate for the foreseeable future.
 

One team is punching above themselves, Chelsea , arsenal have been really poor at times , Tottenham have looked like Tottenham, looks like they are all in a European final, says a lot about the big clubs in Europe at the moment, not a good defensive side anywhere.
 
The money is really starting to show in the premier league you have genuine quality teams in the top 6 and Spme very good players playing for teams in the bottom half
 
I think so. Watching the two semis, I've realized how much fitter PL players are than players from Europe.
