Do you think in England we play too many games?? Its often a pretty good excuse for our teams failing in Europe but I dont think the FA treat us fairly when it comes to Euro competitions. It always happens with all the top clubs seeking success, its happened to Utd, its happened to Arsenal and this season its happening to Liverpool. Having to play something like six games in two weeks how can any club from England realisticly have success abroad with fixture congestion like that!! A lot, maybe too much is asked of our players - Other countries seem to respect their clubs wishes when in Europe and they dont play anywhere near as many league games as we do.
Unfortunatley though there isnt really much we can do about it unless we cut the Premier league down to about 18-16 teams and ditch the League cup, which many will oppose against.
I can understand manager's frustration about this yet whenever anyone comments about it they are just slated and disrespected. Its a difficult situation and hard to find a fine balance!! What do you think??

well, i think its what makes the english league great. Man utd proved it is possible to win it all in 1999. Liverpool are finding it tough this year but they are still grinding out the results. i dont think the league cup should be ditched as teams who dont take it serioiusily can just play their reserve team, its still somthin for the smaller clubs to play in. Maybe all the teams who qualify for europe should not be entered into the league cup?
