In the early days, PL.was shown free to air in some Southeast Asian nations Slowly but it became a paid subscription sporta channel once a decade had passed as their popularity ensured a viable subscription model. The US model is just following an earlier marketing tactic.

Coming from an American that has been into soccer since I was young, we watch the premier league because it is on and the parody in the league. We are accustomed to relatively equal sports, so we have no interest in leagues like the Bundesliga. That is why Bundesliga and Serie A are no longer on a main channel (no free channels anymore) while the premier league grows in popularity and familiarity.

@@myownlilbubble English games used be shown abroad as early as the 1950s and what English teams have that maybe other European teams don’t have is several generations of hardcore foreign fans that are willing to pay a subscription to watch English teams. La Liga in the UK used to be on the same network as the Premier League for no extra cost. La Liga wanted more money and decided to move away from this network to another platform where you subscribe and La Liga has completely collapsed in the UK because people were only prepared to watch La Liga when it was available for no extra cost, but were not willing to pay a subscription for it because they were not hardcore fans of Spanish football. Think about this in the USA the Bundesliga was the first European league to be shown in America in the 1980s and in South America Italian and Spanish football was king there and the Premier League only started being shown in South America in the mid 1990s. Now in both South America and North America the Premier League has taken over as the most watched European league.

Your comments are always spot

The comments are true, but you all are forgetting one basic element: the United States Soccer Federation. Soccer made in Germany was the first program that carried European football with weekly Bundesliga matches. The Italian RAI used to broadcast Serie A (and Serie B when there were international breaks) matches. There were also occasionally FA cup matches. Telemundo and Univision would show matches from the Mexican league, Argentina and sometimes matches from the South American club tournaments. I was very fortunate to see an El Clásico between Madrid and Barcelona (Roberto Carlos was red-carded for a shoulder charge!! 🤬) All these matches were shown on over the air television on UHF channels 25, 31, 41 and 47 in particular. They were, except Spanish language games, broadcast by Public Broadcast System (PBS) which double as community/cultural channels. Those PBS channels had to pay fees to the USSF. The Bundesliga and the FA Cup were the first to disappear off the American airwaves. Italian matches would vanished during that league wide betting scandal. The other major factors were Sky and pay-per-view. In fact, families started buying satellite TV to watch sporting events across the country and around the world. Local bars and restaurants also gotten in the craze. ESPN started building sports bars/restaurants and fans would be able to see their favorite sport for the price of a good over-priced meal. And everyone had to "wet USSF's beak". During that time, if a player was worth his salt, he play in the Italian Serie A. Also the Spanish league was often called "La Liga de Estrellas". The English game was still playing "route one" 🙄 Since the United States didn't start that crap league, those folks who grew up watching German and Italian football, would get cable TV and pay for subscriptions for Dutch, Portuguese, Scottish and French games. The one thing that English league does better than everyone else, is marketing their teams. Chelsea, manu, Man City, etc, you can find their brand everywhere.

So the combination of history, prestige, England having the most globally relevant culture in Europe, language, being globalised many decades before the rest of Europe, diversity of players and fans, exciting football with the best players and coaches is why no other league came come close to the Premier League in terms of global popularity

Then how did Premier League become the most popular league in South America and Europe if it is purely down to language? It also down to style of exciting football played in the Premier League as well as the historical prestige of English teams too as the inventors of football. Even when English football was the poorest Western European league in the 1980s and 1970s they were still the most watch league in the world and have been globally popular since the 1950s.

@@ChrisMDi bragging about Real Madrid and Barcelona financially cheating for 20 years is ridiculous. Any teams would dominate the Champions League if you gave two teams 68% of the TV money for 20 years like La Liga gave Barcelona and Real. The truth is other Spanish teams have won the Champions League, proving without Real and Barcelona financially doping, no other Spanish teams would be capable of winning the champions league. That is why Real and Barcelona want the Super League because they can see English teams catching up to them financially despite them manipulating TV money distribution and they fear they will financially collapse when English teams will dominate the Champions League again.

Add that Britain also introduced football to alot of countries and you have a form of football imperialism where people see England as the home of the sport

Yes, because of colonization and capitalism. That’s why English is a global language.

@TY-sx3jb you missed the whole point of the video. The EPL money makes it impossible for others to compete. That's the only reason it's the most popular. Not because it's inherently better, it's better because even lower teams can outspend giants in other leagues.

😂😂😂

Wont happen because England needs its national team.

Yet In the same period we have seen the rise of Leicester and Spurs be able to compete at the top without having to spend exorbitant amounts of money or have rich oil sugar daddy’s. The Epl also has a fairer distribution of prize

I don’t think it is cycles. If you look at Italy’s success it was because Italy was the first country to have billionaires own teams so their owners could outspend all of Europe for the best players and dominate Europe. The Spanish dominations was down to La Liga allowing Real Madrid and Barcelona to take almost 68% of the total TV money for 20 years with false wealth to dominate Europe. Both models were never sustainable long term because the money being spent was not organically being made. When the Italian economy collapsed these billionaires didn’t have enough money to waste on football and Real Madrid and Barcelona overspending was making La Liga less competitive leading to the TV money shrinking. This is different to Premier League we’re they were simply monetising their global popularity. Even when English football was poor in the 1980s and 1970s it was still the most watched football in the world, because fans in Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, North America and Australia recognise England as the home of football and the England as having their most prestigious league as it was the original. This means the Premier League gets far more viewers worldwide than any other league in Europe by a massive margin and viewers worldwide equals bigger TV contracts worldwide and this is only going to get bigger during the streaming wars where companies look for content that guarantees viewers and of all the leagues in the world the Premier League does that. If you at the Bundesliga Fox USA spent over 450 million on the Bundesliga USA rights for 6 years. It didn’t deliver viewers in the USA so when the rights were up it only went for 150 million for 6 years because it lost value due to the lack of viewers, while the Premier League US contract went up from 500 million to 3.5 billion in the USA over that same period because it was delivering viewers in the USA

@@bigpud6833 still those two teams got more money than teams in the Bundesliga and LaLiga because they got rich owners.

I too watch UCL in night but only Barcelona matches just to get disappointed by Barca Defenders 😇😇

I wouldn’t agree that Real Madrid and Barcelona are the most followed clubs in India or Asia. There was a study done that look at the global viewership of the big European clubs per game. Liverpool and Man Utd were the highest at close 400 million global viewers worldwide per game. Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City and Tottenham were next with viewers over 250 million per game. Real and Barcelona when they were not playing each other only averaged 50 million well below the English teams. That is why English teams earn so much more from their international TV contracts in India and around the world. They are not giving English teams more money out of charity or historical connections, they simply look at the viewing stats and see English teams get far bigger tv ratings than other European teams in their country so pay them more for their TV rights.
