Serie A may be interesting as a Table, but its incredibly dire football these days. Honestly just watching Serie A games can be enough to make me fall as sleep, terrible football on display and its gone the way of the Italian national team too.

yo.... just letting you guys know that I finally managed to pull myself out of the ground after I was buried alive. ;_;

Next World Cup, I'm going on vacation somewhere were football ain't such a big deal. Russia most likely.

Well Premiership isnt in a any better setup either. Out of 20 teams, 15 use the same tactic of "punt the ball as far as you can and hope the dude there catches it".

At least the race goes about 5-6 clubs as opposed to the 3-4 in Serie A

Thats not even true anymore at all. Occassionally the tactics revert to that, but only 3-4 teams in the prem actually play "hoofball" tactics anymore, and they are usually the 3 that come up from the lower division (although recently they play nice football too) accompanied by stoke (who have started to limit their hoofball too, a bit).

Serie A is just boring to watch, which the prem, la liga and bundesliga arent.

Prem - Exciting title race, unpredictable

Bundesliga - Best football, exciting matches (high scoring) but ultimately its between 2 teams for the title, and probably just one from now on

La Liga - Best players (at Real/Barca), slick football

Serie A - Boring football, racism, players are starting to lack pace and are all getting older, best young players go to bigger and better clubs.

Premier League 2013/14 season average goals per game: 2.7

La Liga 2013/14 season average goals per game: 2.7

Serie A 2013/14 season average goals per game 2.7

lol @ players getting old starting to lack pace. Italy are investing massively in youth, but ofc. it's easier to label something you don't watch as boring, old and racist.

Yes, except I do watch it every week, its the only football I can watch on the weekend during the season as I work on saturdays and sunday so miss all the good football.

My super saturday consists of the Italian early kick offs, and I barely ever enjoyed a match.

Oddly enough, I feel as if the Italians are incapable of playing on Saturdays as literally every game I watched on that day sucked dick.

In retrospect Bundesliga Fridays werent that far off from that effect as well.

As for hoofball...well since you mention it, Tony Pulis made sure to ingrain that game into all of Stoke players.
