Top 3/5 teams you LIKE/DISLIKE

[Semi-Neutral]

In general, I'll pick Barca over Arsenal, both when they play each other and who to watch if they're both playing at the same time, but other than each other I'll root for them no matter who they play, because I love both clubs.

What does root even mean. Isn't it some kind of a plant?

Root is either what a plant uses to pick up water from the soil (typically known as roots), or it can mean your ancestors, or, as in this case, it can mean "to support".

I've noticed there are a few people on this forum who support multiple clubs. I find this a bit odd....I can understand maybe supporting your local team and then a bigger club but I don't understand this supporting multiple big clubs thing.

Is there an order you support them in?
If they were to play each other would you support one over the other?

Yup, Chelsea always comes first. Even though I got into Milan earlier I just, over the years, have had way more opportunities to watch Chelsea as the Italian and Spanish league games are usually on at a pretty bad time for Australians, I like to stay up late but the matches are sometimes on at 5am, EPL games, depending on daylight savings, are on as early as 10:30pm.

So yeah, for me my order is Chelsea, Milan, Atletico, Dortmund, PSV, though the latter 3 are more clubs I like the most from their respective leagues as opposed to supporting them, though Atletico would be the closest, I liked them from the Fernando Torres days despite how inconsistent they were 98% of the time. Milan I don't support as full on as Chelsea, but as I've been a fan since 1998 I cannot overlook them and just say they are a club I like as opposed to being a fan of.

By the way I'm not questioning people's support of their clubs I'm just curious as to how this works. There are clubs that I have soft spots for but it doesn't really affect me at all if they win/lose. At the end of the day it all comes down to Barca.

Depends on how you look at it. In their individual leagues, I like them all the same, as in I'm equally happy when one of them win & equally sad when they lose. So I do "love" them all.

The only time there's really a problem is if they play against each other in Europe, because yeah, you can't say "I'm cheering for both". If/when that happens, I would support them in the order I started following them (so for me, Liverpool > Barca > Inter).

Don't get why $$$ clubs are getting all this hate. . . Its obvious some people are just pissed of because "new money" are on the rise. I hate a club for being bullies,disrespectful and playing dirty. . . . The likes of Man Utd, RM,Bayern and to an extent Chelsea.

Well, R€al Madrid is still the richest club in the world and it is almost a decade and a half since they won something in Europe and that is an ecuation of a very very rich club with an extremely dumb management ( among many other negative things ) and that is what I call pure stupidity and no good identity / philosophy. It is easy to dislike / hate somebody who is both rich and stupid and ofcoruse proud of himself like r.m. is.

 

[tello]

Bayern are one of the fews clubs that can boast a winning record vs R.Madrid which makes me very happy. It makes me laugh that even Madrid's galactico squad couldnt overcome Bayern that often.

+1000 !

Anton and I and something in common blimey Although my fondness of Milan came in 1988 rather than 1998!!
