I have no doubts that Italian football is successful, you just have to look at teams like Juve, AC who have won (or got to the final) in the last 10 years, and also the international side... The problem isn't with their success, it's the way they get it. They're boring to watch...

Of cource, I'd sooner see United play rubbish football, and win. But if they did this week in, week out, I woudln't be interested, because I'm a fan of football, and not just the results it gives. I want to watch teams playing exciting football, but for all the stars in the Italian league, they don't get the chance to shine under such a dull style of football.
