La Liga 2016/17

Boom, Barca have kicked off the season in style. A 6-2 win over Real Betis and a hat trick for Suarez. Hope he returns to the Premier League one day.

Real Madrid have got it all to do tomorrow to match that as a statement of intent!

Well, this thread kicked off, eh?

Guess not many followers of La Liga on these forums these days.

Granada have been relegated after a 2-1 loss away at Real Sociedad. Tony Adams doing about as well there as most expected!

Can British managers hack it abroad anymore?

I suppose Adams, G. Neville and Moyes are not our best representatives!

I do tend to follow a lot of La Liga, among other European leagues. The El Clasico last week was breathless and I do see Barcelona fighting until the end but Real Madrid have a fairly easy run in bar Sevilla at home.

As far as English managers are concerned, I do perhaps think the 'English' style of manager and their methods are pretty outdated which is why no English manager has won a top flight title since Howard Wilkinson, 25 years ago.

Be nice also to see Leganés stay up. Also Eibar, what a season they've had for such a small team.
