December 12, 2011 09:12:20 UK
Cesc Fabregas grabbed the final goal in Barcelona's 3-1 win over Real Madrid on Saturday to demonstrate why the Spanish game is so different to the Premier League.
The former Arsenal star was in dominating form in midfield but in an entirely different style to the one he experienced with the Gunners.
Barcelona are now 34.00 to win the La Liga title while Real Madrid can be backed at 1.005.
Discussing the differences between La Liga and the Premier League, Fabregas said; "At Arsenal I could go anywhere, here I need to be more in sync with the team.
The difference between the two leagues for me is colossal. I didn't expect it.

"I'm not saying one league is better than the another but the mentality is very different. I always thought English football was the best to watch because there are more goals, more excitement, more chances. But now that I'm back in Spain I understand why there are more goals and more chances.
"It's much more crazy, out of control in England. It's everyone attacking, pouring forward. The fans push you on and in your head there's just one idea - go forward. Sometimes in England it feels as if you don't have time to think.
"The English are more warrior-like in their approach, their hearts are racing and their mentality is harder, faster."
