And honestly, they're not wrong."},{"host":"Liam","text":"The gap between England's top flight and the rest of Europe is getting embarrassing."},{"host":"Marcus","text":"It's the money. The Premier League's financial strength means even mid-table clubs can outspend giants."},{"host":"Liam","text":"But it's not just money. Bournemouth played with real intensity. Milan looked shell-shocked."},{"host":"Marcus","text":"Milan's squad depth is nowhere near what it used to be. That's the real story."},{"host":"Liam","text":"Come on, you can't blame depth for a three-goal loss at home. That's a mentality problem."},{"host":"Marcus","text":"Mentality? They're playing in a league that can't compete financially. The talent gap is real."},{"host":"Liam","text":"So every English club should just expect to win? That's not how football works."},{"host":"Marcus","text":"It's how it's working this season. Premier League sides are dominating across the board."},{"host":"Liam","text":"One result doesn't prove dominance. Let's see what happens in the knockout rounds."},{"host":"Marcus","text":"Fair.
