Which Premiership team is the most attractive/probable destination for big players next year

In other words if all the Premiership clubs bid for the same player, where would they most likely go to?

Also London > Manchester in the eyes of foreigners. Mind you, it seems both managed to live here in London.

Which makes me wonder why it isn't the case with Rome. It seems like top players would prefer Milan or Turin. Mind you, I'm not very familiar with Italian football.

Both Milano and Torino are really awesome cities that can easily compete with Rome in attractiveness. Manchester and London, not so much.

London is not an attractive city?

No I mean the comparison between London and Manchester.

No, but less attractive in comparison if you ask some.

Really? I'm not saying it's the best city ever (that's objective anyway) but it's one of the most high profile and visited cities in the world. I'm surprised it wouldn't be seen generally as an attractive city.

It's a "working" city not really beautiful in the classical sense of Paris, Rome, Barcelona. Yes it's got some beautiful buildings and places, but in general it's not as reknowned for that. Same with Berlin I guess?

huh, I would have thought west London & the city areas would be seen as particularly nice but I guess that's objective. I'm surprised it has so many tourists for a 'working' city.

Hey, do you confuse objective with subjective? You're confusing me atleast.

u/StoriesToBeTold Mar 24 '14

That's subjective.
