The former Real Madrid midfielder recently made it clear that he thinks that the Premier League is not only more competitive but also tougher to play in as a player as compared to its Spanish counterpart despite the presence

Rafael Van der Vaart has come out and stated that the English Premier League is much tougher than La Liga despite the presence of Real Madrid and Barcelona in Spanish football. In recent years, Spanish football has been seen as
the pinnacle of world football with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011’s victory in the 2010 FIFA World Cup but the Dutchman says that the Premier League is more competitive and tougher as compared to the Spanish league.
Tottenham’s midfielder has not hit the heights that were seen in his first season at the club but he has played an integral part in their bid for UEFA champions’ league qualification as Tottenham are currently fourth in the Premier
League standings. In recent weeks, Spurs have lost momentum and thus some points as well but now Harry Redknapp will hope that his team can come back from this slump.
He added, "The English league is by far the toughest in the world. I can judge that personally. The Premier League is stronger than Spain. In Spain, Barcelona and Real Madrid could have a tough match when they visit the teams at
the bottom of the table. But that's because every Spanish club has a couple of good individual players.”
He added, "In http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 all the away games are difficult due to the pace, power and working spirit from the first minute until the last. At the away game at Stoke I thought about walking off the pitch after 25 minutes. They didn't
do anything but bashing, tackling and using the long ball. Totally not my style, but they are getting results with it.”
