Really? The league they're playing in is several steps down in terms of quality, without even going into all the scandals and resulting loss of integrity of both the league and that particular club.
Several steps down? With posts like that as well as number of posts saying that PL is on another level to La Liga you'd think Premier League was the NBA of football leagues. Sure it's better than Serie A right now but Serie A is still a top league, one of the five best in the world. It's not like he moved to Austria or Poland. Teams might not be as good as they were but with Inter, Milan, Juventus, Roma, Lazio, Napoli and Udinese in the league you can't say it's a poor one.
