Brilliant question: Answer I think is 1. Culture of Spanish as same as other Spanish speaking countries helps to get the best players who are used to a style more close to Spanish football 2. Quality of football is better in terms of Artistry 3. Two of world's current best player are/were in Spain 4. Legacy of clubs like Barca, Real and Atletico

English premier league might be the best league in the world but they are not just that competitive when it comes to European are if you look at it in the past ten years only three teams from premier league has won d ucl and those teams finished among the top four even Seville that finished Seventh a time where able to win the Europa league when the likes of Liverpool Dortmund and benefica were there... The champions league on the other hand is considered as one of the best competition in the world it's that point that English teams do not have the advantage that's why Spanish teams always have the edge over them I wouldn't be surprised if next ucl and Europa would be won by another Spanish team...

Laliga teams dominate Europe because Real Madrid is the best team in the world followed by Barca and teams in Laliga have to step up their game in other to compete against the toppers, by so doing they've gained so much experience over the years the truth is the Laliga teams are better(tactically) in the aspect of play EPL teams just play and run,the shoot and a little richer than Laliga.

It is the style of the league, the English League is considered the best league in the world for a variety of reasons 1 of those being its popularity around the world and the money that is being brought in through TV deals and sponsorship. However, the Spanish League is a different animal.. La Liga teams are very technical and sometimes tactically they are very astute whereas the English league is a league where a lot of teams depend on pace and tough tackling but on the technical front? Not so... That is why you see Spanish teams dominating the continental competitions.

Here we have to say Real Madrid and Barcelona dominating rather than Spanish teams and as for English, we can generally say EPL due to changing teams appearing in Europe. 1. First, Real and Barca got well balanced and superior teams than any other teams in the world. 2. FA is so money oriented that English teams have to play too many games; EPL, League Cup, FA Cup and in Europe. And among them, except for beginning of the cups, they always have to play first team, well if they want to win. 3. Other leagues got winter holidays where as there isn't much break for English teams. Even they start strong, injuries, tiredness keeps players out during crucial time. 4. Big English teams don't want to fight for Europa league as they want to play UCL and going through Europa is too risky. 5. There are 1 or 2 teams always coming every next year which makes them not so comfortable playing all over Europe opposite to Real and Barca. They always are there gaining experience whichever the part of Europe they might face. P.s. It's my personal view so it might not be exactly the perfect reasons but they are major issues.
