To me Serie A/La Liga/Bundesliga/Eredivisie matches are meaningless preludes to either a boring Juventus/Barcelona/Munich/Ajax championship or a slightly more exciting Milan side/Real Madrid/Dortmund/Eindhoven championship.

I feel like the EPL usually has five or six contenders each season, while the entire rest of Europe seems to have about 9 or 10 contenders spread across 5 leagues.

Ligue 1 seems more competitive to me now that Lyon is somewhat dethroned, but the teams outside of PSG and Marseille are also boring.

La Liga is getting more competitive, with teams like Atletico Madrid, Sevilla, Villareal, and Valencia at least making it a bit tougher on Barcelona and Real Madrid, but it's still a top heavy league. Across the globe it's very hard for up and coming teams to hold on to their players, and it's hard to stay competitive if you have to rebuild every other year. Don't know what the answer to that is.
