I thought a while back the TV deal was being straightened out? The problem is a lack of consistent parity as I do love the football in Spain, but getting closer to the big two is very hard and almost impossible to sustain over a period of time. Obviously the big two are amazing teams, always among Europe's best 3-4 but I feel the league is designed to keep it that way from financial set up to favoritism from officials. I can see that being a turn-off for some folks. I would love it to get back to the late 90's/early 00's when Depor and Valencia were right there with the big two almost every season for a stretch of 5-6 years.I do watch it. But not matches featuring Real Madrid or Barcelona because it's pointless.
I lived in Spain in my 20s and attended nearly every Getafe home game for a season. So I am entitled to my opinion.
I used to speak with locals there and they were sick of Real and Barca as well. Everyone is apart from the Real and Barca fans of course.
The league needs restructuring and the share of tv revenues need to be addressed. But La Liga fanboy like you won't accept this as long as you get to see your heroes like Ronaldo and Messi scoring 4 goals in a game against the likes of Real Volcano and FC Ibiza every weekend.

There was a clause that no club gets less than they were getting before so the difference between Real and Barcelona and the rest of the teams is still huge. The base has been set higher for the rest.It is
I really like what I've seen so far from Ben Yedder, good finisher and positioning in the box.1-0 Ben Yedder.
Well, at least this year, the team that used to receive less had a 60% increase in their share.There was a clause that no club gets less than they were getting before so the difference between Real and Barcelona and the rest of the teams is still huge. The base has been set higher for the rest.[/
Pretty much despite the result. Have yet to play Real, Barca and Atlético away.That's it for Seville.
Need to look over their shoulder now. Atletico are only 7 points behind.Pretty much despite the result. Have yet to play Real, Barca and Atlético away.
? They're probably going to continue with this so long as it works this season, but the only reason Luis Enrique did it was because he had no RB offering width, Messi plays in the middle and the midfield gave the defence no protection. It was a matter of finding a way to fix thing with the personnel he hasQuestion for the Barcelona fans.
Do you think the 343 diamond formation is a long term one or was it just a short term fix being trained specifically for the PSG game? If it is, what right winger do you see the club targeting? Mahrez?
Pep tried to use this the first season Cesc came in but truly lacked the right LB to pull it off. It's been employed at different times since then to help penetrate defenses that try to overrun Barcelona's midfield and starve the attacking outlets. In an ideal world, Barcelona would shift back & forth from the 4-3-3 to 3-4-3 but again this depends on having the right pieces to make it work.Question for the Barcelona fans.

Seville down to Leganes after just 3 minutes.
Seville respond with Sarabia. His shot is just off the bar.
Oh christ! Leganes wasted a big chance to make it 2-0.
Leganes dangerous again. I don't think this 3-4-3 formation works for Seville.
Jo-jo! 1-1!
Seville have started well the second half.
Sampaoli is a joy to watch on the bench. He keeps on moving
1-1 FT. Seville have given up on the title.
They have done above expectations this season. It's normal they are having a little dip in form atm.To be fair, they were racking up points they had no "right" to earlier in the season, so it's not that surprising they're dropping them now. They're on a poor run at the moment, which leaves me thinking they really should've put away the game against Leicester in the 1st leg, because it's just got the feel of old Sevilla in the CL: in 07/08 and 09/10 they topped their groups with some devastating football to only then throw it all away themselves against relatively easy opponents in the round of 16 (Fenerbahçe & CSKA). Hopefully they can be pragmatic about it.
It is quite amazing how far they’ve come from the abysmal displays week in, week out during the first half of the season. Not that they’ve been brilliant tonight or anything, but they’ve fought pretty damn well against Atlético. Not created as much, but still.Granada have settled in again.
