It's because the EPL has attracted a lot of investors as a result of its world wide fame which has made it competitive as hell, this is why Leicester despite having a wayward season still made a decent run in the CL, it's good anyway as it strengthens the league.
I remember the heated rivalry between Chelsea, Liverpool and Barcelona, these 3 teams just always used to clash, United that era were spectacular I hold the opinion that the team then is the strongest they've ever had even Arsenal had some good runs back then. I like how the only team to stand up to the EPL was Barcelona off the back of Messi and Ronaldinho in the same line up but it lead to some fantastic games.
