Man U, and Napoli. As well as Larchmont United and Lamberts Point United, ok a little bias since they are my teams that I coach. ;-)0

HUGE FAN of my daughter's U11 team0

I love footy! I've only been a fan of the sport for around a year and a half, but it pretty much fills my weekend mornings now
(it's on early in America). I mostly watch EPL, and I pay attention to a few teams right now.... Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Aston Villa, Man U, oh and also LA Galaxy.
American fans need to branch out from liking mostly Man U and Real Madrid

Those 2 clubs have a rich history and attract the best players in the world. Plenty of other clubs now have money to spend but they can't buy the prestige that Real Madrid or Man Utd has to offer. And they never will.
Besides, ain't nobody got time to watch Aston Villa on a Sat. morning no less (LOL).
The quality of the EPL has been shoddy lately. Can't see an EPL team winning the Champions League any time soon.
Do you have BeIN Sports? You should watch La Liga... good quality from top to bottom.

You're getting a bit carried away now...
I have an obvious vested interest being a Man City fan, but it is surely reasonable given the available choice and quality out there, to expect American fans to delve a little deeper and cast their net wider than Man U and Real Madrid!?!?!.....trying not to be biased Bayern Munich? Barcelona? Juventus?....can't quite bring myself to name another EPL team!!!
It wasn't that long ago Liverpool was spoken of in the same reverential tones.
Whilst I wouldn't go as far as saying the EPL is any better than the others, I wouldn't say it was worse either. I think its a bit silly that the top European leagues attempt to claim that somehow their league is better than the others. They're all watchable in their own way...
Anyone who supports Aston Villa at the moment should be given a medal. A true footie fan right there rather than some superficial glory hunter!

I think hubby is a Man U fan and we are from the States. We have a home team (DC United) and they've done fairly well. Some day we will see a game in the UK. Are tickets hard to get?0

Huge FC Barcelona fan here.
Have to wait until next week, but I am pretty sure it is going to be Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Championship game. Rooting for Atletico in the final, but I still have hope that FC Barcelona will pull it out and capture La Liga this year.0 -
HUGE Chelsea fan. Come on You Blues! We underperformed this season no doubt, but with Conte coming in next year, the future is bring. Our Youth Teams are dominating their age competitions having just retained the FA Youth Cup, and won the Euro Youth Cup as well. If links to Naingolan (Roma) and Bonucci (Juventus) are well-founded, and if we can keep Hazard for next season, then the sky is the limit.
However our immediate brief is to beat Spurs next Monday and ensure that Leicester (with its Chelsea alumni of Ranieri & Huth) win the title.
And oh, I hope Athletico Madrid go on to knock Bayern out in the 2nd leg of the CL semi-finals, and win the final too.
Finally, I am looking for football mad MFP friends. Feel free to add me, whatever your affiliation!
Come on You Blues!!! Pride of London!0 -
Congrats to Leicester!!! Happy to admit I was a doubter and have been proven totally wrong! Thoroughly deserved!!! 1
