La Liga - 2014/15

The ref might as blow his whistle. Granda passing the ball between their CB's for 5 mins now:lol:
 
I hope to see 5 Spanish teams in the champions league.
 
Granada are going to survive again. I hope they cost Atletico 6 points and a Copa del Rey tie next season.
 
Not sure why people are complaining about the head 2 head rule. The alternative is goal difference which results in the same situation really. If there's a 10 goal difference then it's the same as losing head 2 head really.
 
Actually I find H2H more fair than GD. You wanna pick who wins/stays in the league , look how they fared against each other, not at 10+ goals scored against the mighty Cordoba !!

Maybe if there was goal difference instead these small teams wouldn't bend over against Barca and Real and they will give them a game once in a while?

You think they bend over from the start? They'd still be 2-0 early on and would end up praying for just a 4-0.
 
The goal that sends Valencia into the Champions League. Fitting that it was Alcacer.

That Granada-Atletico match was enough to put any man to sleep. Painfully boring.

Still better than the current situation when after the big teams score the first goal they no longer give a shit and end up losing 7/8-0.

That's not what happens. They just have no concept of damage limitation so nobody parks the bus when they are only two down. On a good day you get back to 2-2 (like Deportivo today) or you win 4-2 like Real Sociedad did against Madrid. On a bad day you go 4 goals down and all you can hope for is a consolation goal or pity (and there would be no pity from Barca or Madrid if goal difference mattered)

Well if goal difference mattered then real Madrid and barca would just score even more. They are just far too good. They'd do the exact same to the English teams.

Don't think so. There's lots of La Liga games against Barcelona/Madrid where, when trailing, teams don't bother with damage control and go far more open because they know GD doesn't matter.
