So, I'm a football columnist, and the beautiful game is my life. Want to know if anyone else shares the same passion.

Show your support. I want to know your favorite club, local club you support and the national team you support. I'll start.

Favorite club: Real Madrid
Local club: New York Red Bulls
National Team: Costa Rica

I'll be driving to Connecticut in a few hours to cover the USA vs. Costa Rica Gold Cup match. Should be fun.

    Trust me, as a Red Bulls supporter, I know what it's like to root for England. We lose in ways I never thought possible too.

    I find Man united the most interesting and likable of the "top" teams, I think you'll do fine without Rooney, his attitude stinks and the team is strong without him
