Their tourist fans. I can't go anywhere in the World without seeing them. I went to Sri Lanka a few years back, stopped over in Qatar on the way. In the airport I saw Chinese people wearing Liverpool fans and utterly despaired. Chinese people, in the Middle East, wearing tops supporting a team from Liverpool, England. The mind boggles.

Nah, not really true. Wait, it actually is true, but it's the same with ManU, ManCity, Chelsea, Arsenal. Lived in Ghana and went to Sierra Leone - guess what, fake jerseys of each of these teams everywhere in the streets. Liverpool is even in the minority, Chelsea is by far more popular.

Yeah, chelsea are pretty popular in africa in fact more popular than liverpool. I haven't seen too much of city, but the last time I went to africa was pre mancini days.

Liverpool aren't that popular anymore bar asia I think.

[Manchester United]

Anybody who says Barcelona or Manchester United are simply jealous. We can spend little amounts of money and remain amongst the best in Europe. We also have the biggest fan-base. How do you feel?

I can understand why some hate Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City. They spend tons of money. Although, Real Madrid play some of the best football and are the greatest squad on the planet at the moment.

As for me, I don't 'hate' any team really.

But I dislike Liverpool for a few reasons;

- Ex-rivals.
- They overestimate themselves, they're just a mid-table club really.
- The fans rely on their history because they haven't achieved anything serious in the last 6-7 years; since winning the Champions League.
- Condone racism and never accept the blame.
- Play boring football.

Ibrahimovich transfer, money wise they're a joke and don't they get bailed out by the government like madrid do, the tv rights money is a joke and that's the main reason why they do so well, it's not because of the academy, as they can afford to give players the best wages.
Bunch of diving cheats.
Arrogant *****, xavi being the worst of the lot despite the media saying he's respectful. People said spain play boring football and he went and slagged off every other team that faced them in the world cup. E.g. saying paraguay parked the bus, holland were dirty cheats and bla bla bla.


I don't have much to say about united beside the london armchair mancs and the fact that a lot of them are stupidly arrogant and think they have the best team in the world by far, but that goes without saying when you support a top team.

You've just proved my point. Jealousy.

Every club has 'armchair' supporters. You don't seriously think every single Liverpool fan goes to Anfield, or every Arsenal fan goes to the Emirates? They don't, you're just jumping onto some silly bandwagon, that is ridden by jealousy because we are the most loved team in the world. It's not our fault we're the best English team over the last 50 years.

We can play bad, get the most injuries, play over 35's, lose 6-1 to our rivals, get beat by the teams at the bottom, lose an 8 point-lead and still come join-top on points. Imagine what we're like on a good day?

As for Barcelona, they're not diving cheats. They just play strategic football. If a foul is coming, they play it. Although, I admit that Busquets is the biggest diver EVER. I don't think it's fair to ignore the wonderful football they play though.

[NDGAARONDI]

Franchise clubs. One way to show loyalty to your supporters is to abandon them by moving a stupid number of miles, sometimes different time zones.

Well, chelsea play strategic football. But everyone complains about how they played in the FA cup final or about drogba diving, let alone the CL, but they somehow forget about our napoli performance. Yet spain get remembered for great possession play, when people actually forget how boring the world cup was with spain 1-0 victories(even the media who bum lick their style of play complained).

I find barcelona's football boring if you ask me. I like real madrid or even united's style of play more(not the time wasting 1-0 type but the counter attacking man united)

Like I said before, you just agreed with what I said. The case that everyone has armchair fans when you support a top team. In fact all these arsenal fans are armchair, I live in east london, arsenal is in north london, yet somehow my mates all support arsenal with no affiliation to the club, granted some go to the games when they can and actually support them(like I do with chelsea) but they started supporting arsenal in the early 2000's when they were toe to toe with you guys.

I'm not jealous tbh, well done that you guys are very good. But I have reasons not to like barca, mainly because of what happened in 09 and the fact that all they do is complain when they don't win. Plus nearly everyone on the team is a cock bar puyol, pique, keita, adriano and messi.

Thank you for your meaningful input, I posted at 2am. I will go back and edit some of the 'embarrassing' mistakes.

I understand what you mean about the complaining, that is annoying. They should all be booked instantly when they run up to the referee and surround him. Although, they have stopped doing that now. In previous UCL games, I've had to switch the game off after 10 minutes because the referee would just hand Barcelona a win, but recently, it seems to be fair.

[Cannotbelieveit]

Liverpool and Celtic make my piss boil. Especially with their anti-British fanbase.

One thing for sure, barca have one bad season and people say it's now all over for them? Just like chelsea having 1 bad season and they're now terrible?
People seem to forget that bayern won **** all this season or last season, barely scraped into the CL last season but suddenly they were on par with madrid and barca this season despite being dortmunds whipping boys.

Tbf I thought real madrid were better than barca in the 10-11 season tbh, just that during crunch time and the crucial games vs barca real bottled it.

Now suddenly real madrid is the best team in the world according to everyone because barca have one bad season. Up until april barca were 'unbeatable'

Manufactured Atmosphere on the CL nights are a joke.

The most undeserving team to ever win the Champion League. They lucked their way through the entire process. The luck they had was beyond belief.

You're most likely a liverpool fan.
You got a goal which stood against chelsea that shouldn't have been stood, got battered by milan and were 3-0 down.
I'm guessing united got lucky in 99 too then?

Real Madrid are the best, they scored the most goals. 100 points. I lost count as to how many records they set this year.

They got knocked out of the Copa due to a very dodgy referee decision.
They got knocked out of the Champions League on penalties...

Next year, they'll win everything. They'll be unstoppable. You watch.

[IanDangerously]

I hate our main rivals - the unholy trinity of Liverpool, Manchester City and Leeds United.

I have a dislike (although not so much a hatred) for Ajax Amsterdam, AS Roma and FC United of Manchester.

Why do you dislike FC United?

As for Leeds, I really don't know why United supporters even bother with that anymore.

liverpool wont be in cl for a long time, chelsea are in cl next season. lfc have more chance of being relegated than being in cl for the next few years. esepcially with a manager who had one good season at pl.

all liverpool talk about his their history becaue they arent good anymore, if they didnt have any history, liverpool would just be some unkown team.

[manchesterunited15]

City, Liverpool and at times Real and Barca

[Alexx53]

Barcelona. Diving, moaning, constantly whining and surrounding the ref...etc.

[AbominableSnowman]

I don't really hate any team with a burning passion, but what really irritates me is the way that Manchester United fans accuse Manchester City of "buying success" when realistically much of United's recent success has been founded upon a smorgasbord of big money signings; Wayne Rooney, Phil Jones, Ashley Young, David De Gea, Dimitar Berbatov, Michael Carrick, Rio Ferdinand, Nani, Luis Antonio Valencia, Anderson, Juan Sebastian Veron, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Owen Hargreaves, Andy Cole, Dwight Yorke etc. It's a case of double standards if ever there was one.
Also I wasn't too fond of the media sensationalisation regarding Spurs this year, hyping the up to be title contenders, it was ridiculous at the time and I found myself mildly amused when they crashed and burned in the latter stages of the season.
