He's absolutely right. Here in Germany, managers always complain about Premier League buying their best players - five minutes later, they sign another talent from Stade Rennais...

Carra: "the best players in the woeerld" 😂

[elijahknox]

"the power of the premier league, money, why do you think I'm here speaking English on tnt?"

[KarlSkorger]

"The Dutch are not there anymore"

Flashbacks of Guilit, Davies Ajax 😢

[dafeng]

Agreed. French clubs and Netherlands clubs struggle to keep star players due to lack strength of financial.

[Mr_Linka]

There’s only one answer to Carragher’s question…
MONEY! 💷💶💷💶❗️❗️❗️

[adrianyoyo]

I would reverse the question, why does England has the best league in the world but the national team has never won anything

[barca.fan_]

Dutch's not there anymore, I remember prime modern Ajax, which was immediately dismantle as plyers were sold to big clubs

[Erwanca]

So true
PL fans blaming and calling PSG a money club while completely plunder other countries by buying every wonder kinds with millions is quite ironic.

[clemsi]

Spot on. And people complain psg just have money. How else were they meant to complete with the rest of Europe.

[Lnk]

French clubs got some of the best young players in the world, problem is as they said they all go playing in other, more competitive leagues.

[aidygooner]

It's unfortunate that Lyon and Marseille cannot be as competitive as PSG and bring more excitement and respectability to French football. 😢

Carranger:”the best players in the woäæəërld”

[delta]

France actually has some really underrated teams but england, spain, germany and Italy are just too huge powehouses. The best teams in these 4 are just a step( some 2) above the best french teams.

[WaltuhUlbricht]

Brazil has historically had some of the best players in the world and yet they have no teams there to compete with the european ones.

[nottestellata]

In italy we have the opposite problem. Almost no one is abroad. I think it's good to make both experiences

[GBO]

Don't forget that before 1995, every club in Europ could only have 3 foreigners in their team. That Bosman law has been the game changer for the poorest championships. And France is one of them for 2 reasons : lack of supporters (for any comparable city, there are 2 or 3 times more supporters in Germany or England), enormous taxes.

[Theoneswholive]

They Dutch and the Italian leagues ruled in the 80s n 90s

[parmentier]

The Netherlands were good until the late 90's.
