Their strikee could compete with Danny Welbeck for 3rd choice striker and that's about it. Arsenal have much higher quality everywhere else.CSKA have a lot of experience and some nice young talent, they can still finish easily 2nd in Russia and even maybe 1st, they have a very solid 11 but no depth so if they come to the Arsenal games with everyone healthy I fancy them. Arsenal are a one man team at the moment.
Their midfield is their big strength, if healthy they can compete for sure.Their strikee could compete with Danny Welbeck for 3rd choice striker and that's about it. Arsenal have much higher quality everywhere else.
How far did a Russian team make it in Champ's League?CSKA just beat Lyon
Lokomotiv just beat Nice
PSG was a joke again.
PSG is build to win the CL. Major difference.
Zenit can't even dominate their own league. At least it shows the Russian league is competitive...

And once upon a time Hungary was the runner up in the World Cup. What's your point? Are you willing to say Russia is worse than Portugal?Spain17 England6 Italy3 Portugal3 Germany2 Russia2 Ukraine1 Holland1 Turkey1 Those are facts.

CSKA just beat Lyon though...
Wow missed that.
WHO THE **** ARE YOU TO CALL ME RACIST?
The only guy that trolls every thread about other countries is you.
Now SHUT THE HELL UP.
Well those aren't the rules you established for comparing the RPL to league's above it.Well Portugal has one more trophy and a bigger one this millenium. As far as the uefa rankings I think they traded places a lot of times in those years. So Portugal has achieved more yes of course. But I would say Russian league is more interesting to follow because there's more teams capable of winning...
Portugal is easily the most underrated football domestic league on the planet. I get that RPL has just one less trophy, but that would be a huge losing argument to try and explain how Russia is better than Primeira Liga. I do think RPL is somewhere above Netherlands and perhaps below Belgium. Definitely top 10 which was very good in about a decade ago, but has dropped off lately.Well Portugal has one more trophy and a bigger one this millenium.

It just shows that Zenit aren't as good as PSG. They want to be built for the CL, but they can't even build a good enough team to dominate their weaker league *shrug*...and the RPL is weaker than Ligue down the line, the worst teams are a lot worse, and the "good" teams aren't as good.
