I got the games wrong, last month, they played the same, but only because Madrid had the play in. And you're absolutely right the real issue is the end of the year, imo the FA thinks the island is the whole world

There is always a debate in Spain about the comparison between La Liga and Premier League concerning the matches around Christmas and New Year. Many people think that we should follow what British do and schedule more matches during the Holidays. It's going to be great from a fan and business point of view, though I am not sure the same from players' point of view.

Perhaps being off peak at the end of the year and beginning of the new year may end up with better performance later on the year.

I think it's nuts, La Liga schedule benefits them in the European stage, and let's be honest, you have a really "easy" competition in Spain.

Premier League pace and physical demand is absurd, they need to understand that and balance better, otherwise they'll keep pretending UCL ain't that relevant

I agree, we have 2-3 top teams and the rest of them struggle when match gets physical. Most of teams are also struggling with the financial side of business which means worse signings. Finally, how money is distributed in Spain is not as fair as in England. There is a huge difference between top teams and middle and low teams.

There's a huge gap now within Barça and Real, it's really astonishing how shit went south at Catalunha.
