Serie A This Transfer Window

This has been one of the most successful transfer windows in recent time for Serie A. Teams have been making good, solid signings for their clubs without over paying. Juventus brought in Tevez and Llorente for a bargain price and Fiorentina brought in Mario Gomez for what was their biggest signing in their history, yet still for a reasonable amount for a player of his caliber. In 2006, Serie A was easily the best league in the world. Countless, world class players came out of Italy. It was the golden age for Serie A and it led to gli Azzurri taking home the World Cup for a fourth time. However, nowadays, most everyone says the Premier League is the best or La Liga. The problem with the Premier League is that all of the best players are not even British. Besides the fact the English national team is overrated, there's really not any world class British talent in the EPL unless you count Wayne Rooney who isn't exactly showing his worth the past couple of seasons. La Liga is 2 horse race every year, however, I think it is the best league in the world right now. Yes, Barcelona and Real Madrid dominate, but there are other very quality teams further down when you look at Atletico Madrid, Malaga, Valencia and others. Unlike the EPL, in Serie A and La Liga, all the best players are Italian and Spanish. With the way Italian teams have been working this summer, I see Serie A coming back to what it used to be. Even with financial restraints, they are not only finding a way to lure high quality players to their clubs, but also players that actually fit into their system. Juventus addressed their striker issue and Fiorentina brought in a fantastic "replacement" for Jovetic and the pending departure of Ljajic. Milan have bought Andrea Poli to enhance the midfield and are looking to bring in Keisuke Honda from CSKA Moskva in January. Even with Edinson Cavani most likely leaving Napoli, the southern Italian club is finding cheap, but quality replacements in Callejon and Lorenzo Insigne finally getting some playing time. Italy is starting to make a comeback at the club level. I was able to see this for the past few months or year when the national team was coming back. Cesare Prandelli is revealing the kind of talent Italy has in not just Serie A but also B. Juventus is already a Champions League contender and Milan, Napoli and even Fiorentina are also very close to causing some damage in Europe. It won't be too long until we see an Italian team(or 2) in the Champions League Final.
