But as those subjective judgements accumulate, you can on balance of probabilities label something as the best.
- 5 out of the top 10 clubs with the most fans are in the EPL*
- 6 of the top 10 clubs with the most money are in the EPL*
- 5 out of the top 10 clubs who are watched most around the world are in the EPL*
That's a pretty strong argument for "best" and I don't even watch football.
Another way of looking at it is to ask someone like me how many teams they can name in the major leagues. I can name quite a few in the EPL, two in La Liga and one in the Bundesliga. I suspect that this would be repeatable in many countries around the world.
*Although this is only 50% or 40% the remaining teams are split between La Liga, Bundesliga and the Brazilian league.
Person in England knows more English teams than foreign teams is one of your metrics?
Having the most money does not make the Premier League the best league. That nakes them the richest
Ditto for most watched
Ditto for most fans.
Sheff Wed took 50,000 to Wembley for play off and have an average home attendance higher than Bournemouth and Brentford & even Luton. It doesn't make them better than those teams. Indeed Bradfird in L2 have a higher average crowd than Bournemouth, Brentford & Luton.
My club Newcastle United have one of highest average crowds in England over last 68 years, but have not won a single domestic trophy in that time. Hardly makes them one of best clubs
You may think those nettics prove which keague is better, but that is your subjective view.
Please point me to a universally agreed objective set of metrics for determining the best league?
The fact that there is not such a thing is because such judgements are subjective and not objective.
So as I say what is the best league is a subjective not objective claim.
Spanish sides have won 6 of the last 10 Champios League Finals, compared to 3 English sides
Spanish sides have won 7 of last 10 UEFA/ Europe League Finals. English clubs have won2
The head to head in terms of success seems to show different to your chosen metrics
I'm not sure what is controversial in saying a subjective choice is subjective
If you believe League A is the best, then great. That is your subjective view and no one can disprove your subjective view. Similarly you can't disprove someone else's subjective choice.
