Barclay's Premier League, Who's your team?

Anyone like Football? Lets talk.

 

For members outside of the UK this is Soccer ~ Stream

Oh, that football.

[Stream]

Love football but my team is only in the Championship not Premiership anyway it's the Canaries, Norwich City.

[LordOfTheFish]

Man U is my team, I'm glad to see there on the rise. I can't stand it when Chelsea is in first...

[Commander Obi-Wan]

I love watching international "football". The only "football" I've watched is the World Cup '06 and Euro Cup '08, but I thought it was great.

 

The only football I pay attention to often now is the Bundesliga, which is the German Soccer League. I'd have to say my favourite team is FC Bayern München.

 

I still kind of pay attention to the EPL, but I don't really have a team I follow.

You and me aren't gonna be very good friends then

 

Man U on the rise? Not a chance. It's a Chelsea year my friend, a Chelsea year. If only Ballack wasn't in the team...

Now there's something we can agree on.

Ballack is one of the most hated players in soccer, and i hate him more than anyone, but I can't stand the arrogance of Cristiano Ronaldo and Fernando Torres, it's obvious the best striker in the world is David Villa.

[LordOfTheFish]

Villa is good, but not as good as C. Ronaldo. Lets see... Ronaldo scored a whopping '42' goals last season.

I'll admit he isn't bad but he's still completely full of himself and arrogant, same as Rooney, in fact he's worse.

I don't follow football, but if I have to go for a team it's The Kop.

Yep, he's a good player, but he's far too arrogant for his own good, that's what I love about Villa, he's awesome, he knows he's awesome, but never is he arrogant, cocky etc. all class

[LordOfTheFish]

He is arrogant, but seriously... Who wouldn't want him? It's like your guaranteed 1 goal at least per game.

 

But I see where your coming from. He's top on the butt-hole list.

After Ballack, and just narrowly before F. Torres

[LordOfTheFish]

I don't really see Rooney that way. However, I do not like Dimitar Berbatov being on the Man U squad. He's just as bad as Ballack.

Not quite, at least, IMO.

 

I'd be rapped if Chelsea got rid of Ballack, we don't even need him.

[LordOfTheFish]

I suppose you hate Germany then?

You actually do.

Every team needs an a**hole. Some games can only be won with them. If Ballack insures an opposing team-member is sent of in the Champions League final I wont hear you complain.

 

Look at all the great clubs: Ac Milan- Gattuso. Manchester United - Ferdinand. Ajax - (used to be) Davids. Bayern Münich - Van Bommel.

 

Anyways, voted Liverpool. Although Arsenal is a personal favourite, Liverpools fans and stadium are just...jawdropping.

Yep, we beat 'em in the Euor though!

Good point, but Ashley Cole can fill in for that

Ferdinand? You mean Cristiano Ronaldo, and Dimitar Berbatov...

Ferdinand is a bit of an a**hole, I wouldn't say Berbatov is though...

[LordOfTheFish]

When Berbatov left the Spurs, they died....

That still doesn't explain why you think he's an a**hole.

And I don't think it's because he left that they're crap, what about Keane? He's a gun player also, and Spurs got Modric and Corluka, who's rated as one of the best defenders in the EPL, and they also got Pavluyichenko (sp?) who's a gun Russian, they would've been crap this year with Berbatov or without, probably not as bad, but still in relegation territory.

[LordOfTheFish]

I was just stating what was on my mind...

 

I'm surprised Stoke is doing so good. So I heard Chelsea won 4-0 today, who against.

5-0 against Middlesborough.

 

I'm upset though because in my EPL Dream Team, I had Lampard as my captain, but I changed it to Defoe because he's been dominating recently, and then this week Defoe does crap while Lampard destroys the game.

 

And I;m more surprised Hull is doing so good, top 4 I think.

[Ztalker]

Surprise effect of a recently promoted club.

 

Watch next year, they won't be so good. simple fact.

 

Teams like that play opportunistic, since they have nothing to loose. It's not easy to play against such a team. And you don't know the players and their skills.
