2011-2012 Swiss Super League Season Review

FC Basel easily won the Swiss Pro League by twenty points, they also scored 26 more goals than any other team in the league, 24 of them by veteran striker Alexander Frei. Although part of the reason for Basel success was off-field trouble for other clubs in the league including FC Sion being deducted 36 points for fielding ineligible players and both Servette and NE Xamax having financial issues which lead to Xamax being expelled from the league and their owner arrested for forging documents. With clubs selling players over the summer including Xherdan Shaqiri by Basel, it's hard to see the Swiss Pro League getting any better which is disappointing since they hosted the Euros in 2008.
