That's the thing.....
The competition is what makes this a tough league. Never mind if you don't see the most technical and aesthetically pleasing sides of the game here, what you do see are teams that will bring you down to their level. Effectively.

Err... so hold on, you think that Premiership teams were not doing that to ManU that had Rio Ferdinand, Vidic, Ronaldo, prime Rooney, Tevez, Giggs and Scholes because of the lack of TV money. Now that they have TV money, they have improved a lot and brought the otherwise great ManU side down to their level?
You think that it is not that Arsenal went crap since the days of Vieira and Henry, it's Southampton and West Ham improved so much so that now they can bring Arsenal down to their level? You think that Chelsea haven't massively regressed from the days of Terry, Essien, Drogba and Lampard, it's Swansea and Crystal Palace who can now bring them down a level?
Hilarious. The tough league is the reason why Moyes' and Van Gaal's ManU struggled then, OK.
