[Photo/Agencies] As we get down to the business end of what most people agree is the best World Cup in living memory, the Premier League feels a long way away. It’s not: in 45 days, the whole crazy circus that England’s top flight begins again. So what can the Premier League learn from the brilliant World Cup? And how will this World Cup change the Premier League? 据《每日电讯报》报道，大多数人会认同这样一个观点：最好的世界杯将永远留在人们的记忆中，而英超联赛还有很长一段路要走。这并不是说在45天后，疯狂的英超联赛又将拉开序幕。那么英超联赛可以从这届精彩的世界杯身上学到什么呢？这届巴西世界杯又将会怎样改变英超联赛呢？ There’s no substitute for true quality 1.世界级球员无可替代 England did pretty well against Uruguay, but the one world-class player on the pitch, Luis Suarez, scored two goals. At least he didn’t bite anybody. Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t have a tournament to remember, but did deliver a brilliant cross to keep his side in the World Cup against the USA.
