What EPL/English team do you support and why?
>liverpool
>because of the emotions when they sing You'll never walk alone
Barcelona, because I like their style of play!!!
Just kidding, fuck off back to facebook, you cunt.
kill yourself nemanja
>>67548587
>because of the emotions when they sing You'll never walk alone
it's shit and mega cringeworthy, the dumb scouse fucks always rush it and do it wrong as well
>>67548587
I'm British but I like Liverpool (they're not my team but I like them)
I don't really get why everyone hates on them, the fact of the matter is that all the top teams have odious, entitled, godawful, cunt fans.
>oh they're always going on about muh history
I don't care.
I really hope they win the Europa League. And I hope they win the league someday soon, they've had some great players over the last decade but never quite made it, so I feel like they deserve it.
>>67548647
You sound like a faggot
LESTER
Liverpool
Because I loved watching Stevie G dominate other European teams since the mid 2000's. Sadly he never won the League despite reaching the 2nd place 3 or 4 times.
Also because the city has a "working class" vibe which I'm part of desu
>>67548635
This is pretty much English autists on /sp/: The post. How many matches have you gone to this year?
>>67548587
Tottenham
I saw their fans in this video a week after I started watching soccer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PpJBR_rQJk
I'm a Cubs fan, so I admire this sort of thing.
>>67548635
I know what you're talking about (the "walk on, walk on" part is rushed), but you can't expect a crowd of normal people to sing as well as professional singers.
>>67548587
None, EPL is too plastic for me
I dont really support them, but my favorite team from the epl is Man U. That CR7 era was great.
>>67548587
>Reddit: The post
Fuck you, support your local team
>>67548711
Aston Villa also do this chant, why don't you support them?
>>67548587
Stoke
no idea why, just happened
>>67548587
Swansea
Yuropoors are obsessed with supporting the closest team to you and that would be Swansea
Arsenal because I rate Henry
>>67549870
>I only support a local team that I watch in person a few times a year
fuck off with this meme. sometimes sportS fans want to watch more than soccer and unless you live in a big city it is very unlikely that your local city has more than a couple of sports teams. I don't understand why people get so bootyblasted by outside fans. Sports hipsters.
>>67550150
I go to every game, what's your excuse for bandwagoning fatty?
>>67548587
It's hilarious how foreigners still buy into the whole the Liverpool mawkishness.
Everyone in this country is sick and tired of the sanctimonious cunts. We know it's cringeworthy bullshit.

>>67548587
Liverpool.
Started watching english football as a child as a neutral, but Anfield and the reds gave me goosebumps many times so i started to root for them for years now
>ABL is a mental illness btw
>>67548587
>liverpool
>because dalglish
I can't just pick a team and support them. It just doesn't feel right. There's no personal connection.
That said, being neutral has its many perks. I'll watch anything that comes on - although, I love watching the PL and La Liga especially. I watch more soccer than my friends that have arbitrarily adopted clubs like Arsenal, Liverpool and United. It's funny to watch their pathetic attempts at replicating the rivalry and their fabricated hatred for other clubs. It's so stupid.
I love being a free agent and able to slurp it all up. Truly the master race American divegrass fan
>>67556101
More respect for this guy than any other JF in the thread.
To be honest it's foreigner's money that skewed everything in favour of the big clubs so in general you can all get fucked.

Not round here m8. Fucking casuals.
Liverpool. They were the first team I saw as a kid when they did an American tour game in Pittsburgh.

Money wouldn't have come if people weren't buying into it.
Blame the fans?

>>67556101
This man.
Dont know why more people dont have this attitude. I hate pretty much every team in the epl and cl and still watch happily

>>67557145
That ship has sailed, bro.
>>67548587
I started supporting liverpool in the early nineties because I was going through a Beatles period. so, yeah...
Liverpool
Because when I first played Fifa, my friend already chose Man U, Liverpool were a highly rated team, they wore red, and I had heard of Liverpool because of the Beatles.
That's about as deep as I went with my decision.
>>67556400
don't worry anon, you made me laugh
City, because Oasis
I don't support any team besides my own but I like Liverpool.
Proud history, biggest english club, always entertaining, great stadium atmosphere, team with heart and grit, less plastic than any club in the EPL, and they have Qtinho (I like him a lot since he's a product of my club).
Southampton
Scrappy underdogs who aren't scouser cunts buying top 5 finishes with oil money
>>67558197
neither scouse clubs have oil money
neither scouse clubs finished in the top 5
>>67558197
>scouser cunts buying top 5 finishes with oil money
Everton and Liverpool don't have oil money, and neither of them are in the top 5.
>>67548587
>Supporting a team from a country I don't live in
I don't fucking understand why people give such meaning to sports and then allow this shit
>>67550150
>not getting it
So do all you football supporting Americans have MLS or other U.S teams you support as well as watching the premier league?
I always root for the underdog. No matter what sport or league.
Arsenal
I love there free flowing football like Barcelona FC.
Everton and I have no idea why
>>67559997
No, MLS is shit and most American soccer fans don't care about it. I have American teams in other sports though.
>>67561775
>watching sports for the quality
fuck off
Sheffield Wednesday
I picked them in FIFA 11 for Career mode simply because I liked the badge and I thought the name was very unique, but I ended up falling in love with the club IRL, especially during the time of their second promotion to the Championship in 2011-12. I learned how they used to be one of the bigger teams, and about their strong fanbase, and I simply want them to be back in the PL where they belong. Hopefully, they'll be back for next season, and I'll certainly watch all of their matches. Maybe they could even pull a Leicester if they return, who knows. They've also got a Thai owner after all.
>>67562728
alright mr. /lifelong/
wednesday get a slight sniff of the premier league's fart and you're already putting your work in just in case they become lestah 2.0
liverpool
becuase ive always liked their players specially gerrard, i like them more than my local club and have supported them for many years. even if they dont win a lot of titles these days i always try to keep up to them
>>67548587
Liverpool.
Several reasons no one cares about.
>>67548587
>Living in Miami with no local team to support
>Originally from Uruguay
>Grandfather said he played for Liverpool when he was younger
>Idiot 5 year-old me assumed he meant LFC of England

On the bright side, I witnessed both Istanbul, Stevie's FA Cup miracle, and Dortmund; plus I went to their home opener v Bournemouth this year. Its been a great ride
>>67550394
They probably are the most working-class out of all the big clubs, yes
>Working-class
>Scousers

Pick one
>this bindipper lovein
you people make me sick
>>67563957
And not the most only credible reason
Liverpool. My first memory of them was scoring against them in the Europa semi final. That conditioned me to failure and made every success sweeter.
>>67564515
*forlan scoring
>>67563551
If you're implying that I'm bandwaggoning, don't you think that it would me more realistic to bandwaggon for Hull, who just got relegated from the PL and could potentially yo-yo back? I've genuinely been following Wednesday for 5 years now, and things looked bleak for the club during the first couple of seasons after they came back to the Championship.
Of course I would absolutely love it if they could do something similar, but more realistically, I hope that they finish mid-table if they do get promoted. Actually, right now I just wish the promotion thing happens. I don't want to see Hull failing at the top again, or Derby being a disgrace just like the last time they were in the top. Wednesday has been a top team for most of their history, and I want them to get back to that status.
>>67548587
I don't "support" any of them
As an American it's just weird to identity with an English team
I just like watching good matches.
Unfortunately most EPL games are early in the morning and I can't catch them

Been trying to watch every game I can since I came back from that trip. Never had the chance to watch another game with him after I came back.
Pretty sure he'd be disheartened as fuck given the current state of UTD.
Chelsea because I like the color blue. Not even lying. I picked them about 5 years ago. Was cool watching them comeback to give >Lester
the cup.
Manchester City
Because Claudio Reyna was on their roster when I started watching soccer.
The Hammers, because I'm violent white trash
Chelsea because I like Diego Costa and i wanted to "support" a team that i could watch in the champions league.
>b-but you should support your local team
My nearest team is 200km away and isn't even in my state, liking them would also be arbitrary so might aswell go for entertainment value.
>>67550234
>>67550234
>I go to every game
But of course you understand that means nothing at all. Nothing. Heh heh.
You need to get familiar with the term "spurious relationship".
It describes things between you and "your" team.
>>67565580
Tells beautiful story about spending time with his grandfather...turns into some shit commentary on the team.
quitwhileyoureaheadm80.png
Tottenham because they had Dempsey and Arsenal fans are annoying as fuck.
>>67548587
Arsenal.
Because they're the default first team you can pick out in FIFA.

>>67548587
Liverpool, because the first CL final I saw was 2005 at Istanbul.
Liverpool because when I was a kid both our best players Litmanen and Hyypiä were playiing for them.
>all these foreign liverpool supporters
You literally have no idea what the club and the fans are like. Supporting Liverpool is a mental illness. If you disagree you need to be hospitalised.
>>67566348
lmao from a foreigners perspective all english football fans are the same scum. stop acting like you're any better because you're not.
>>67566393
At least you being ignorant explains why you support Liverpool. Truly knowing the club and still supporting them is actually worrying
>>67566439
I can't tell you I know what the club stands for, or what kind of shady shit they might do. Except the whole buying neighborhoods around the stadium and evacuating residents and shit.
But what I can tell you is they seem to keep acquiring players I really enjoy to watch

Arsenal. Because all memeing aside, they're actually my local club and I'm a lifelong fan.
Liverpool. I had a friend from there in prep school and he made supporting the club look quite fun. All the scarfs and old kits and stuff.
And /sp/ has this absurd hatred for them. When I was growing up, United were the most hated because of they had the most fans in every class. Even the teachers supported them. I still have no idea why the ABLism is so concentrated here.
>>67556511

I support whichever team won recently. The team logos look kick ass on adidas tops. Soccer is pretty fucking gay tho t.b.h. lads.
>>67548587
The big English clubs all strike me as extremely unlikeable, be it because of their fans or something else. I guess I'm rooting for Liverpool a little bit since they have Klopp now.
Aside from that I root for the underdogs, especially Newcastle.
>>67548587
Spurs
My grandfather played for them.
>>67548587
Middlesbrough because they had some ausfags playing for them way back when
Manchester United.
It started out when I was a kid, and they had three Norwegians in their first team: Berg, Johnsen and Solskjær. I didn't have a clue about history and them being totally dominant at the time, so not really on the bandwagon. Then, as I payed more attention, I liked their other big profiles. Wathing their games was fun. Winning all the time didn't hurt. Then it was a habit, and I was locked into the team forever.
It hurts nowadays.
Wolverhampton, because I like their name
Wigan. I forgot why though and its nothing too serious
MUH HERITAGE
>>67548587
Forest and Pompey. Both due to student exchanges in high school.
>>67566760
>I still have no idea why the ABLism is so concentrated here.
It's only really became so bad the past year or so here, /sp/ has become a self parody really. Every thread is just repeating the same 1-2 jokes about each team over and over and over.
Sperges need to direct their impotent rage somewhere, and Liverpool became an easy target. None of them would actually have the balls to say any of it in real life, so I find myself feeling pity for them rather than anger
Manchester United
Started getting into football seriously around the 2002 World Cup because Korean parents and at that time United had the Class of 92 still going strong and it was all Arsenal or Manchester United in the Australian media, playground etc. and I guess I chose United on the basis of first impressions, they were entertaining to watch and I just gravitated more towards them as a club than Arsenal. United were also the team I played as most in FIFA 03 and some of my favourite players like Park Ji-Sung, Carlos Tevez, Cristiano Ronaldo and Dimitar Berbatov (even irrespective of their United careers) have played for them. Imo that mid-late 2000's United team were incredibly unlucky to have been formed around the same time as Barcelona's GOAT squad, they played some incredibly entertaining, slick stuff.

How little you know.

Was taken to my first game when i was 12 and i cant even imagine supporting another club.

Nah. It was always bad, and it reached a peak in 13/14 partly because of the rampant Irish shitposting. Whether that was people falseflagging or not is another discussion.
It's just strange to me when I compare /sp/ with people IRL.
Spuds because my dad is from London and we always woke up early to watch the games on the weekend when I was a kid.
