I always forget to ask, is this real?

"Supports: Watford, Everton, Real Madrid, AC Milan"

When I look at a City box score that's when I remember Kalvin Phillips "plays" for them.

I’m pulling for City to win since I **** with KDB and I’m a fan of Pep also. And I’ll be damned if I have to see Real hoist up another of these trophies too.

Wouldn’t mind if Inter won since I like Lukaku also.

Don’t really care about who’s more dirty, shady, etc. If I did, I damn sure wouldn’t be this invested into Oversea Footy, I know that much.

He has Bielsa to thank for some of his salary.

I am looking forward to the Milan derby.

I don't really care who wins though I am a big fan of Giroud, Leao and Maignan (who will now get to shine for France since Lloris has been put away).

It was more accurate when I first put it up 10 years ago, but yeah still real lol. Watford is my family/heritage club, Everton is the EPL team I adopted when I first started following football closely. Real Madrid is my actual #1 tho, if I'm going to live or die with a team (which I'm not that guy).

Are you asking in the context of: it's odd to support teams in multiple leagues globally, or it's odd to support multiple teams in the UK? Both are fair honestly, but I love following teams in leagues worldwide. I could have put my favorite Scottish Championship club and NWSL team too. But no one wants that.

They will just siphon more dark energy and figure out how to win. It's futile

It’s so annoying to see the biggest, winningest and richest club of all time play like this so regularly.

Also Carvajal is literally the Madrid version of Alba but somehow dirtier. He’s gotta be one of the dirtiest players I’ve seen.

Re: 2022-23 UEFA Competitions Thread

It is annoying but I will say this squad is not that good from an elite standpoint (they can't even keep up with an OK Barca squad in La Liga for a reason) so I see Carlo managing it the best he can.

Camavinga is not a left back. He plays it pretty well but his turnover was the De Bruyne goal.

Modric has moments of brilliance but even managing his La Liga minutes, he is old and just can't keep up.

Kroos is washed.

Valverde and Rodrygo and somewhat Vinicius and Benzema are so inconsistent.

Alaba and Rudiger are good but not great. Of course Militao didn't play this match.

The bench is total ****.

That pen never would have been overturned in the PL. The VAR wouldn’t have even had the ref look at it. Because there was “contact” so it wouldn’t be a “clear and obvious error”

Re: 2022-23 UEFA Competitions Thread

Hopefully Leao can play the second leg. If not, Milan is done.

Real Madrid always suck it up in league though, they bottle the league and win the champions league, it’s just what they do.

I feel pretty good. I typed all that out drunk off my *** and it came off relatively decent.

I should be happy but I’m not at all

Get absolutely bent Real Madrid lmao. Highlight of the night was Carvajal getting cooked by Grealish so badly they subbed him off.

Also seeing Carvajal the master wind-up artist get wound up by Grealish laughing off all his dirty late hits was cathartic.
