I'm pleased to see Ligue 1 doing better. God knows the French league needed some competition to spice everything up.

ligue 1 and serie a were the best to watch. la liga obviously real madrid vs barca as usual.
roma spanked juve yesterday. can take away our 6th scudetto.
monaco and psg were in a chase till the end.
epl was decided since december/january. chelsea was going to be the winner.
bundesliga? lol

Great thread, the only thing I disagree is on 8 and 9. Personally, I'd swap them, but other than that I agree.

I'm slowly being sold on Ligue 1. I'm starting to think I should watch them more than the Premier League. Some very good quality football being played in France.

@Gonzi I don't think Roma can take away that from you since Juventus only needs 1 win from the 2 games. Maybe if Crotone would play to death, because they will be playing not to relegate, they can make a surprise which is still unlikely.
But Bologna has nothing to play for. It would be a miracle for Juventus to throw it away.
Edit: I don't think Juventus cared for Roma game to be fair.

Great thread!! Very insightful too.
I haven't enjoyed League 1 as much except the top 3 clubs are definitely interesting to watch.
La Liga's quality is relatively high as usual but Real and Barca's dominant is as predicted.
Serie A is definitely way more interesting to watch compare to previous seasons and I cant wait for them to get back like 15 years ago.
EPL is to me the most interesting one purely due to the fight from 2 to 7. Even Chelsea might win it comfortably, it's always unpredictable when it comes to face the other 5 behind them. Outside of those 7, I agree with Emerecan the quality is quite low and sometimes look rather headless.
Can't say much about Bundesliga, hasn't watched much, but in those few games I watched, too boring.

Then you propably didn't watch much of Marseille and Lyon, they doesn't alway play too good, but when they do, they rip their opponent apart. :)
Nice to see Spartak Moscow winning it for a change in the Russian Premier League, still hope Rostov will manage to get their hand on the trophy at one point. Russian Premier League is alway underated though imo.
Juve rested some player against Roma before Copa Italia final no doubt. They will need to be at their best against Lazio who have become good again it seem. ;)
Anyway, great thread your made there Emre, your the best (one of them at least) bro. ;)

Good to see some different opinions because I was having doubts about the 4th and 5th place. Still could not convince myself for putting Serie A at 5.

@Emrecan Gonna be sincere, Serie A and Bundesliga, its hard to chose one of those two to be over the other. Would say they are tied in fact for me. ;)

@Emo: you are right, I haven't watched enough of those indeed.
Although, isn't that what they do till now even before this season? May be I am a bit bias toward Serie A, I tend to adore Serie A's tactical ability and technique than the old simple League 1. I might definitely change that after this year though.

@tuan_jinn I also feel a bit bias toward serie A, not for the same reason, team just seem to have so much more history when compared to the Bundesliga and there is also many decent team in there that just seem a bit more interesting in term of player. I mean seriously, Lazio, Atalanta, the two Milan, Fiorentina, Torino and even team like Sampdoria, Udinese and Sassuolo just end up leaving much more of an impression on me. :)

@Emobot Yeah considering the history and the names, Serie A is of course at higher places. But I've only considered this season in this thread. Also what I want to mention is; before the season, I had some expectations for Sassuolo but they've disappointed me big time. That's actually my biggest dissappointment for Serie A.

@Emrecan I get you about Sassuolo, considering last year and the quality of their player, they could have aimed for Europa League this season. Instead, they are stuck at the fourtheenth place. :(

For me PL turned boring except the derbies. La Liga was always boring for me. Don't know why but I just don't like it. I enjoy Bundesliga and Serie A the most, then PL and then Ligue 1. La Liga is last amongst top 5s league. And then there is Eredivisie. However by success it's completely around - La Liga 1st without a doubt, then Serie A/Ligue 1 and PL also. Sadly Bundesliga didn't have club in European semis but was undoubtely close to.

Monaco for the win! Great to see someone other than PSG win Ligue 1 for once. Actually, I wouldn't mind if ligue 1 would become a 2 or 3 horse race, its alway better than Bundesliga and Serie A who aren't been very competitive in a long time. :( Tough, it would be even greater if we could have even more team than Monaco and PSG compete for the first place next year. :D

I did not know there was a relegation play-off in Bundesliga for 16th place. I feel so ignorant right now.
Edit: It seems like there is a relegation play-off in Ligue 1 too.
Lorient vs Troyes
Wolfsburg vs Braunschweig

@Emrecan Lorient vs Troyes should be interesting, no matter who win, it will be a team who have been in Ligue 1 already recently (Troyes was in ligue 1 last season if I'm not mistaken).
Also, pretty sad about Wolfburg. Hope they remain up. Still Emre, what terrible karma for Mario Gomez, I mean, he leave you guys last summer and now look at the situation, Wolfburg fight for relegation while Besiktas are looking set to win another super league. Not saying that what he deserved and that he should regret it but still, the irony is real.
Also, Anderlecht are propably one of the most impressive Belgian team in the world Imo, too bad they are still inferior to other top team in europe though. :(

Well, after a long term run for 16-17 season, a couple leagues have decided their respectful champions.
Champions
Bundesliga: Bayern Munich %100
Premier League: Chelsea %100
Primeira Liga: Benfica %100
Russian Premier League: Spartak Moscow %100
Ukrainian Pari-Match League: Shakhtar Donetsk %100
Eredivisie: Feyenoord %100
Ligue 1: Monaco %100
Jupiler Pro League: Anderlecht %100
Serie A: Juventus %100
Almost Champions
*Will be updated.
European Success
My Top11
(Competitiveness, European Success, Good Football)
1. La Liga
2. Ligue 1
My surprise prediction: Monaco, Lyon and PSG in Europe and Nice in the Ligue have raised their ranks this year for me
3. Premier League
Chelsea won the league with relative ease, Manchester United has reached the Finals who are 6th in League and Leicester played in Quarters while playing not to relegate. But mostly boring games between mid and low table teams.
4. Bundesliga
I would actually consider Bundesliga and Serie A as equals but teams like Leipzig, Hoffenheim etc being so persistent makes Germans 4th
5. Serie A
Juventus reached the Finals, Napoli was eliminated to Real Madrid. Juventus was comfortable in the league as always. They got a little bit too comfortable on latest weeks. But teams other than top3 being too inconsistent makes the League 5.
6. Süper Lig
Beşiktaş obviously. And Başakşehir are still in the competition which makes the league more entertaining. Osmanlıspor finished first in group while they were below mid table in Turkey. Fenerbahçe finished above the Finalists in Group Stage.
7. Eredivisie
Ajax are the Finalists yet they couldn't won the league. Feyenoord started the League with an amazing run. And the champions weren't decided until the last week. Entertaining
8. Belgium Jupiler Pro League
Their teams' Europa League run have been awesome. Even Genk-Gent played against eachother in Europe with surprise results.
9. Russian Premier League
I would actually put the Russians in higher place but could not find a place.
10. Primeira Liga
11. Ukrainian Premier League
