Wtf, that’s 50 mil in epl fantasy budget. And Salah at 12.5 m (1/8th of budget) is already a pain to work with Edit: that leaves you with an average 3.57 mil per player to fill the remaining 14 slots. Goddamn I’d never touch Messi or Ronaldo if they were really that expensive.

I like how you gloss over the fact Leo has more balondor, more FIFA player of year, more golden boot, goal scoring in a season world record. Oh but you ignore the fact Ronaldo utterly failed domestically and also endured horrendously embarrassing defeats. Not to mention he ghosted every final of the 3peat. You live in your own head, Messi has every individual award possible more than Ronaldo and has also won more. Gerd Muller is a better striker than Ronaldo, much more impressive goal scoring. Let's not even mention messis playmaking ability, he's on par with xavi in that regard when you statistically analyse his passing. You got absolutely destroyed unfortunately here in this debate. Cry more at the next balondor ceremony mate ;)

[@saifchowdhury3581]

If you take out Messi and Ronaldo from Laliga then the highest goalscorer is on par with those in premier league. Even benzema and forlan at their best had tallies equal to the strikers in the premier league. This shows that laliga isn't actually easier than premier league. The bottom six teams in premier league concede more goals than those in laliga. The middle 10 also concede 1 to 3 goals every game. Only the top 6 in the premier league is overall better than the top 6 in Laliga. Even then these top teams are susceptible to conceding many goals against the likes of city and Liverpool which are counterparts to Barcelona and Real Madrid of laliga
