Argentine league is streets ahead of Scotland. MLS probably is too.

Against who? You cannot be talking about one international game against Montenegro?

Auriemma explained: “Lazaro’s agent is talking to Napoli… The price is very high. Hertha Berlin asks for €30m, but for €25m you can take him away. There are Premier League clubs who follow him, particularly Everton and Leicester, who continually observe him during Hertha home games.”

The number of players we would definitely keep in the squad is still really low and shows the amount of work still to be done by Brands and Silva to rebuild what was one of the poorest most unbalanced squads in the premier league. The summer window was very good but still the amount of work to do is huge.
Keep:
Pickford, Virginia, Kenny, Coleman, Keane, Mina, Digne, Davies, Siggurdson, Bernard, Lookman, Richarlison, Calvert Lewin.
That’s 13 players out of 35ish who don’t have a question mark by them (although I’d personally question a few).
The definitely out list and the maybe list is therefore close to 2/3 of the squad including some of our first team players in Gueye (presumably wants to move if PSG come back) Gomes (loan) and Zouma (I don’t rate him but Silva does).
A huge amount of work to do before we get to the position where we have a stable squad of quality players with strength in depth who have played together for a while and can mount a challenge to the top 4 or 6.
Silva walked into a squad with the likes of Klaassen Williams Martina and Luke Garbutt in it and some fans expected him to challenge the top 6 immediately. Absolutely laughable.
Stick with the plan. If we kee recruiting like we did last summer then we’ll be better next season and better the season after both on the balance sheet and on the pitch.
5 years of rank recruitment under Martinez and Koeman has utterly destroyed us. Silva can’t carry the can for that.

I'd have it as:
Prem, La Liga
Serie A, Bundesliga
Eredivise
Ligue 1 (beyond PSG)
Portugal,
etc etc
I never get why Ligue 1 is considered in the 'big 5'. This is a league who historically are poor in European competition too, which makes it even stranger.
Thing is though, it's not that these other leagues are 'bad'. Thats what gets me about fans especially in the premier league discounting other leagues, it often comes across as snobishness, not ever league has the riches and finances of the PL but it doesn't make them bad. And the fact is, the ONLY other league close is La Liga, which means that all bar two leagues must be bad in the eyes some!
Problem is, a lot of players from continental leagues just don't adapt well to the style of the premier league, it often has little to do with where they have come from.
It's about finding the players who do adapt, rather than taking risks on those who don't. All comes down to great scouting, and a little bit of luck and risk/reward!
