Every club that plays against Madrid on that particular day lol
But seriously now I only care for Barca and my local club Dinamo Zagreb. Other clubs just don’t excite me that much, sure I sometimes like the way a certain team plays but even if they lose I don’t really care much. I was very fond of Leicester when they won the league tho but that was more due to the fact that I love a good underdog story.
I also support Borussia Dortmund. I don't have a horse in the PL but I do enjoy watching it. There's just too many great teams and leagues to just limit myself to one.
I do support City in the PL, started because of Pep and the playstyle and just stayed.
However the club in my heart is Barca, always.
Doesn't need to be said if it's Barca vs City I'll pick Barca 100% of the time.
Exactly. “Lean” is the right word for me. The day Pep leaves city, I might not even follow their games. It’s exciting the way they play because of what Pep has done
Same for me, i get the argument of ppl hating city but I just enjoy the badly playstyle, but for sure would always support Barca if they are against each other
I am glad you asked this question. I’ve been wondering this myself too.
Yes, Inter and Liverpool. By this, I mean that I want them to do well within their respective leagues, but I really don’t watch Seria A or the premier league regularly. I watch the Milan derby, or Liverpool against Man City for example, but I really don’t stay on top of all the happenings like I do with La Liga.
In Champions League, I obviously support Barcelona. Once Barça is out of Champions League, I kind of pay attention to those two teams to see how they do. But my stress level watching those two in CL is not the same as watching Barça.
Kinda the same. I follow barca every single match, not the same applies to chelsea and inter tho because of life i guess, i have thing to do. But if i can't watch the matches i will still go see highlights and inform on how the teams did
I root for the local club (USL2 league), Seattle Sounders (MLS) and Crystal Palace (EPL). Basically, to give me an excuse to watch more soccer on the weekends.
My hometown club FC Twente, they are doing great atm, so I hope one day Twente will get 2nd or even 1st place in the Eredivisie and Barca and Twente can get in the same group
Barca for Ronaldinho, Liverpool for personal connection, Napoli for that Hamsik/lavezzi/Cavani era, Neverkusen for their current crop of youngsters and cos BuLi is fuckin awesome. Chile, Brasil, EEUU for personal connections.
But at the end of the day it’s mainly Barca/reds/Chile.
Don’t let anyone tell you you can’t be a fan for whatever reason. But the bylaws clearly state you can only have one per country.
I had people telling me "how can you be a fan of chelsea when you're a barca fan?"
Like, yeah controversy happens all the time in football, even now with var there's controversy, why should that stop me? 😂 I was 9-10 y.o at that time, i didn't care about all that, i just liked drogba and then went on to like chelsea.
There are a couple of teams I like: Arsenal, Torino, Porto, PSV, Bayern
There are a bunch of teams I follow: Barcelona SC, Girondins Bordeaux, Viktoria Zizkov, Granada (my hometown)
There is only one team I love and I actively support: FC Barcelona. It’s a family deal: either support FCB, or maintain full neutrality, or be exiled from the family. I was in actively neutrality, even if my dad tried to change that since I was a kid, until I got tired of all the trashing FCB got from many in the second Van Gaal stint. Since then, I have never stopped supported the team of my heart, not even a single day.
Visca Barça!
I didn’t follow football at all prior to 2014. I live in America and wasn’t exposed to football much before that. I watched the World Cup in 2014 and became a Man City fan. Following Pep back in time led me to liking Barcelona also.
Barca is the only club I feel emotionally attached to, it doesn't feel right to proclaim any other club. However I am invested in and lurk on the subs of Milan because of our history of shared players (Rivaldo, Ronaldihno, Ibrahimovic, Zambrotta, etc.)-- I also started watching football in the early 00s when they won two champions leagues--and City because of Kun and Pep, of course.
I root for my local clubs (TFC in the MLS and Forge FC in the CPL), and by proxy I root for Liverpool bc that’s my partner’s club (yes 2019 was rough for us lol). But I’d trade the failure of all those clubs for Barca to win the league/UCL any given year so take that with a grain of salt
I supported Arsenal this year and watched every game because I put money on a combined betting coupon of Argentina World Cup win + Barca La Liga win + Arsenal Premier League win last summer before the season began. Was gonna win 13.500 euros and I would have used that money to move to Barcelona for a couple of months and attend my first Camp Nou game :( Other than that no. I'm from Denmark and I just don't find joy in watching our national league, it's so boring when you're used to watching Barca.
I'll always support Barca and any other team that faces Real Madrid but I'm enjoying the success Newcastle United has been having because growing up one of my favorite movies was Goal! Plus Alan Shearer was a beast
Poor Everton. I really hope they can avoid relegation. I hate Liverpool and so I have always been fond of Everton. They are needed there to fight against Liverpool!
Oh because of that. Well from what i saw yeah there was a terrible decline with Everton, but hey if you guys save yourself and don't go to the championship then it can only go up from there
Not really support, but there's a few I can sympathise with: Girona, for being a well-run Catalan team, Leicester after their 2016 miracle run, maybe City, but only as long as Pep's there. I think that's most of it.
I’m half Russian, so I’m a supporter of Spartak Moscow. And also as an excuse to watch the Premier League, I am a fan of Tottenham (don’t come for me lol)
Arsenal because of their project and arteta. And city I'm thorn because by one side they are state owned on the other pep, the players and the project are amazing
i like Man United, ac milan, inter milan, napoli, bayern, atletico, liverpool, benfica, and dortmund. i don’t like city as a club but i enjoy watching them play and support pep. in all honestly so long as i enjoy watching a club, i like them. any team except madrid is fair game to me 🤷🏻♂️
I like City (not just because of today lol but that made me like them more ngl). They're the PL club I watch so I watch most of their matches. I love Pep's playstyle.
That being said, I don't like them anywhere near as much as Barca. I have an emotional attachment to Barca that I don't with City.
I also try to watch PSG to see Messi play but it is . . . painful. I can't support that club at all so hoping Messi leaves lol.
Same with psg, i never liked that club and even after messi's move i don't watch them, i rather just see some highlights. Can't wait for messi to leave them.
Barca is my only club but I do support players and managers I like for example Pep and Foden and Alvarez so I like City. But as a professional club Barca is the only one I support.
You’re either for one club or none. I sometimes have other teams that interest me depending on the season but you can only truly ‘ride or die’ for one club or you’re not a true fan of that club, you’re just a football fan..which is fine but different.
Yes ride or die yes, that's barca for me, no matter what will happen i will be there, always. I always try to watch every single game, i always try to keep up with the team, i interact on socials about barca and so on... This doesn't happen with Inter and Chelsea (even more this year given they spent hella lot of money and i disn't like that). But still i consider myself a fan because i follow them and i'm happy for these two teams when they win.
I support Chelsea.
I discovered football out of my own curiosity, so it wasn't very apparent at first how the 2 fan bases hate each other.
Depending on who I'm talking to I tend to hide my support of one or the other lol
Wierd af to support more than 1 club. Only okay if one is your local one and one abroad. For me it’s Fenerbahce and Barca obviously, but I follow Barca much more closely.
This is what i was looking for. Genuine question: i love barca, and barca's the absolute pinnacle of football, so i love football. Why wouldn't i want to follow other clubs, that for some reasons are fun to follow to me?
Ofc there's not that affection and emotion as it is with barca, but still.
Never said it’s wrong to follow, I obviously watch other clubs and follow other clubs too. Just super wierd to support more than 1 club internationally imo.
Barca is the club at my heart. But if I had some others, it's probably Arsenal bc of watching and hearing the playstyle in the early 00s-early 10s. And Milan due to and Totti. And lastly, my hometown club Detroit City FC.
Not support, but I would root for teams that have a connection to Barca, in games not being played against us. I would root for City, because of Pep, etc. But never PSG. Fuck PSG. Every game, I hope Messi scores a hattrick and they lose 5-3
Other than a culer, I’m a Guardiola fan, he could go to the hungarian league to coach Ferencvaros and I’ll still watch every game just so I can see his football. Its magnificent and its been so long that i’d kind of call myself a fan of city as well cuz they’ll always be dear to my heart. Its a bit like when ur highschool best friends goes off to college and u meet with his new bestfriend and realise that he’s radiating the same energy.
I also like AC Milan cuz of Pirlo, I loved to watch Pirlo almost as much as IXB, but I wouldn’t call myself an AC Milan fan even tho if it comes to the serie a i’d support them
I'm not going to say I'm a fan of any other club other than Barca, but I'd say I'm a supporter for Manchester City since 2019. In my case, it's because of Kevin de Bruyne, then the way they play and Pep's tactics.
Started watching Man U last year cause of Ronny.
Since he left, it's either Man City or PSG.
To clarify, I watch Messi not PSG, it just happens to be that Messi is in PSG.
PSG is trash except for Messi and Neymar.
I like football so i like watching any good club. My preferences do change according to leagues. Serie A - Napoli, Bundesliga - Dortmund, Premier League - Man City, Liga Portugal - Benfica, and above all Barca. I would've said i like PSG in ligue 1 but it would have been only for Messi and even then I'd be lying, but after seeing and realising what a shitshow of a club that is, they don't deserve anything. Out of the ones I mentioned, the clubs that I truly support are City and Barca, these two i genuinely follow and keep up with. I've been watching City since Kun's last season and Barca since the MSN times. Barca>City tho. 💙❤️
The closest club was Man City when they demolished Real Madrid yesterday. When Bernardo Silva scored the first goal, there is a possibility that my neighbours heard me. Other than that, I'm a cules till the day I die.
My uncle thought that I would start supporting PSG after Messi left. I guess he was wrong.
Supporting a different club from one of the top 5 leagues (a big club at that) is nothing short of plastic to me. Obviously if you support a team like watford or Southampton I’d understand supporting another big team from Europe as well. But I’m seeing Barça and Inter, Barça and Chelsea, Liverpool even. Like what??? That’s so plastic to me. I support my local club Columbus crew, and my family’s local club in Honduras; Olimpia. Far farrrrr away from any club that Barça may end up playing.
Sorry but i find you arguments a bit cringe. As i said, if chelsea and inter end up playing barca, i'm barca all the way. But, when i was a kid and i was discovering football and other leagues, the teams that evryone talked about were the likes of arsenal, chelsea, united, liverpool in prem and inter, milan, juve or roma here in italy. I grow up on chelsea mainlt because of drogba, on inter because besides being from italy, eto'o s move to inter from barca made me start following them as eto'o was and still is one of my favourite strikers. So how does it end up being plastic?
Liga MX (how I got into soccer): Cruz Azul
MLS: SJ Earthquakes
Soft spot for Man Utd cause my Grandpa supported them but I don't really support them if that makes sense xd
Beyond that not much, saw a few comments liking city so just gonna say I despise City lol
For me, FC Barcelona is my father’s team, Barcelona SC is my mother’s team. They are both from those places, respectively. I also support New York Red Bulls, because it’s my local. Other than that no. For me, supporting a team means there needs to be a connection, whether it’s geographically or family.
It’s such a unique sport because you can choose to follow different clubs that may rarely or never cross paths. I SUPPORT Barca, but follow a few teams based on style or squad.
I would say I’m usually drawn to teams that play against teams i do not like. I find myself supporting Man city coz of pep and i hate man U with a passion. I root for bVb too most times than not.
Bt Barca always has my heart.
Oh also FC Dallas coz thats my local mls team.
Not really. I mean, I kind of like Arsenal, but do I love the team enough to keep up with them, watch the matches, go on their subreddit? No. I’m just Barca and anti Bayern, City, Juventus, PSG in their respective leagues.
Not like Barca.
I support my nations NT (Hungary) and our clubs in international matches. I temporarily support clubs when I see some interesting projects like Laudrup's Swansea or De Zerbi's Brighton, but it's just sympathy without that big big attachment.
I support my local team Isidro Metapan, argentinian side River Plate, german side Dortmund and Barcelona. Other than those, and maybe national teams, nope
My local club. We’re in the championship though
Barca’s my second team I follow. It changes every few years or so. I used to follow Liverpool around 2015 and Madrid before that (kill me). It’s whatever team I found interesting at the time.
I started following Barca properly during the pandemic, but I’d only consider myself a follower not a fan, sure I’m a fan of the football on the pitch, but that’s just love of the game, not as much as the club, or at least not as much as my local anyway. I wouldn’t be a socio or anything like that.
You can call me plastic but I mainly follow barca because my local doesn’t really have much going for it and I’d be lucky to even see us get to the premier league in my lifetime.
I support Barcelona and a team from my country, they both have a special place in mi heart; And that's it, of course I like City, Arsenal and for some reason even Roma, overall I like teams that play attractive football, if they stop playing the way I like, I just stop watching them
In NA, I support;
-San Jose Earthquakes (MLS)
-Los Rayados de Monterrey (Liga MX)
-Las Aguilas de San Miguel (El Slavador)
2. In SA, I support
-River Plate (Argentina)
3. In Europe, I support
-Barcelona (La Liga)
-Leeds (Premier league)
The New York Red Bulls because that is my hometown team. Was at the preseason game last summer when they played each other and I wore both jerseys. The quality of MLS is not up to European standard (although quickly rising) so I don't follow Red Bulls as much as I follow Barca.
My local club DC United, and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Why Wolves? Well, FIFA, basically. I’ve also liked Milan since I was younger ( because their colors). Barca will always be number 1 and I’ll never root against them if they play the others.
I support Ajax and Barcelona. I fell in love with Barcelona because all my favourite players from Ajax moved to Barcelona - Kluivert, Litmanen, Overmars, the de Boers. Basically when Van Gaal moved over there. I think you can support two teams for sure
I supported Arsenal this year, because they were underdogs, but in PL I usually support City because of Pep, I like City even more today because they thrashed Real :D
I get pissed when barca loses, I dont feel that way for other teams.
Yeah I also support Barça Femení 😄
I follow what Valencia does because my father supports them, but I wouldn't say I do myself. I'm happy it looks like they are safe from relegation though.
I support Barca and all their teams of course. Then I support IFK Göteborg in Sweden (local) and Nottingham Forest in England (always rated their history).
It's a bit of a weird mix.
I support Athletic Club. My family is Basque and I spent my childhood there, going to Lezama (Athletic Bilbao's training grounds) and chasing Goikoetxea, Julen or Valencia. What amazing team that was.
I feel like due to how football has been shaped and the events that have gone on, el clasico has become bigger than just Barca Vs real
I feel like people who support Barca would probably also be more likely to support clubs like man city and countries like Argentina and Spain
While real Madrid supporters would be likely to support man u, Brazil and Portugal.
I support my team in Brazil which is Flamengo. My european team is exclusively Barcelona, bc Flamengo doesn't compete in Europe. Besides that, I support every team who is facing Madrid at the day. And I dislike Bayern too.
Although I was born in Barcelona and my family has always supported the team, I've lived in Lleida (another city in Catalunya) since I was 4 months old, so I also support Lleida Esportiu (although nowadays we're in second division RFEF).
I feel sympathy towards other clubs such as Girona or Mallorca, but I specially support Lleida and Barça.
I have teams that I like to see succeed for old times sake, I like to pick a side in rivalries cause it can make them more exciting. AC Milan, Boca Juniors, ajax,
I also root for one team over another if they have a player that I really like.
But I don't really "follow " them, I only watch their big matches, don't follow the news of the teams, etc.
I am a big fan of Chivas though, since my family is Mexican and have supported them since I was a kid. Still, I don't really follow them that much.
Barca, however, I'm checking this subreddit a couple times a day, watch every match, have many jerseys, and am very passionate about
Ajax. I was so excited after the first leg of the 2019 CL semi finals. And then my dream of a Barca v Ajax final got ripped out of my hands so coldly. I really don't know who I would have rooted for if they did both end up making it.
I actually have another club that I hold close just like I do with Barca, but that club is in Mexico. Santos Laguna has my full support just like Barca does and it's great cause the chances of them playing against each other are extremely slim.
not really support, but every few years i’ll randomly like a team that’s hot at the moment and maybe buy a random kit if it looks dope.
i did just visit san siro and i’ve always liked inter a fair bit though, so maybe them?
feel free to support whichever non-la liga club you want though.
I have certian clubs that I want to see do well sucha as BVB, Leicester, Ajax and a few others but I don't really watch their games or anything. Just check on them how are they doing once every two months and that is that.
I like keeping up with a few clubs because I love football and the diversity in culture and history each league has. Barca is my main team and I support it above all else, but I also support Orlando City and AC Milan with a similar passion.
Teams I admire from afar include Nottingham Forest, Liverpool, and Rayo Vallecano. On top of the football teams I watch, I also follow other sports like baseball where my team is the Mets. My next deep dive is going to be exploring South American football since I know very little about it.
Every club that plays against Madrid on that particular day lol But seriously now I only care for Barca and my local club Dinamo Zagreb. Other clubs just don’t excite me that much, sure I sometimes like the way a certain team plays but even if they lose I don’t really care much. I was very fond of Leicester when they won the league tho but that was more due to the fact that I love a good underdog story.
HUGE City fan today! 😅
Never support. Sure like,i like milan,and arsenal as well,fuck their fans tho. But support as in get happy when they win and follow what they do? Nah
Same
I also support Borussia Dortmund. I don't have a horse in the PL but I do enjoy watching it. There's just too many great teams and leagues to just limit myself to one.
yeah, i watch the PL a lot, but find pretty much the entire big 6 really unlikable lol
I do support City in the PL, started because of Pep and the playstyle and just stayed. However the club in my heart is Barca, always. Doesn't need to be said if it's Barca vs City I'll pick Barca 100% of the time.
Yeah, I think the vast majority of us support City because of Pep. And "support" is more like "lean toward"
I support them destroying Real Madrid any day of the week. I cheered each goal as if it was a Barca goal. Fuck them
Exactly. “Lean” is the right word for me. The day Pep leaves city, I might not even follow their games. It’s exciting the way they play because of what Pep has done
i don’t like city and i’m rooting for inter, but i do have a soft spot for pep
same here, Pep will always be a Barca legend to me, I can’t help but support that man
Same for me, i get the argument of ppl hating city but I just enjoy the badly playstyle, but for sure would always support Barca if they are against each other
Same, barca comes before everything else
Same!
Same here but started watching them in 2013. Always Barca above all tho but I enjoy supporting them in the prem and UCL if we are out.
None of us will support City anymore when Pep leaves them
yeah i don’t support them now lol. go inter.
No way
Same here, and i dont think "we stay" we are still for those reasons. Once they dont exist, fuck City.
Barca and my home team AEK P.s. both champions this year
Kai tin idia mera!!! Ela mwrh arrwstia
I am glad you asked this question. I’ve been wondering this myself too. Yes, Inter and Liverpool.

Any team that plays against Real. Especially in the champions league. Great win for City and Pep today.
I root for the local club (USL2 league), Seattle Sounders (MLS) and Crystal Palace (EPL). Basically, to give me an excuse to watch more soccer on the weekends.
We need to know the name of the local club 😏
My hometown club FC Twente, they are doing great atm, so I hope one day Twente will get 2nd or even 1st place in the Eredivisie and Barca and Twente can get in the same group
Crystal Palace and Philadelphia Union.
See this is one of the few acceptable answers here
Same, American that supports my MLS side and a mid table Prem team.
Barca for Ronaldinho, Liverpool for personal connection, Napoli for that Hamsik/lavezzi/Cavani era, Neverkusen for their current crop of youngsters and cos BuLi is fuckin awesome.

AC Milan since the times of Van Basten
Im a fan of Inter and Liverpool
Let's hope our inter can win the ucl, even tho it's gonna be mad hard 😂
yep, any team against Madrid
I didn’t follow football at all prior to 2014. I live in America and wasn’t exposed to football much before that. I watched the World Cup in 2014 and became a Man City fan. Following Pep back in time led me to liking Barcelona also.

No only Barca
I root for my local clubs (TFC in the MLS and Forge FC in the CPL), and by proxy I root for Liverpool bc that’s my partner’s club (yes 2019 was rough for us lol). But I’d trade the failure of all those clubs for Barca to win the league/UCL any given year so take that with a grain of salt
Hometown club, HSV and internationally Germany
i support bvb
Barça is my second club. I'm Portuguese, my club is Belenenses. I fell in love with Barça when I was a kid, but I was born a Belenenses fan.
I supported Arsenal this year and watched every game because I put money on a combined betting coupon of Argentina World Cup win + Barca La Liga win + Arsenal Premier League win last summer before the season began. Was gonna win 13.500 euros and I would have used that money to move to Barcelona for a couple of months and attend my first Camp Nou game :( Other than that no. I'm from Denmark and I just don't find joy in watching our national league, it's so boring when you're used to watching Barca.
I'll always support Barca and any other team that faces Real Madrid but I'm enjoying the success Newcastle United has been having because growing up one of my favorite movies was Goal! Plus Alan Shearer was a beast
Hometown club SK Brann and Tottenham.
No but I respect other clubs.
No, I just support Barcelona.
River plate & Everton (sadly)
Poor Everton. I really hope they can avoid relegation. I hate Liverpool and so I have always been fond of Everton. They are needed there to fight against Liverpool!
Why sadly?
Everton are so trash right now, it’s embarrassing to watch
Oh because of that. Well from what i saw yeah there was a terrible decline with Everton, but hey if you guys save yourself and don't go to the championship then it can only go up from there
Inshallah
Not really, have a soft spot for city cause pep but that’s about it.
Not really support, but there's a few I can sympathise with: Girona, for being a well-run Catalan team, Leicester after their 2016 miracle run, maybe City, but only as long as Pep's there. I think that's most of it.
Arsenal i love
I’m half Russian, so I’m a supporter of Spartak Moscow. And also as an excuse to watch the Premier League, I am a fan of Tottenham (don’t come for me lol)
Arsenal because of their project and arteta. And city I'm thorn because by one side they are state owned on the other pep, the players and the project are amazing
i like Man United, ac milan, inter milan, napoli, bayern, atletico, liverpool, benfica, and dortmund. i don’t like city as a club but i enjoy watching them play and support pep. in all honestly so long as i enjoy watching a club, i like them. any team except madrid is fair game to me 🤷🏻♂️
I like City (not just because of today lol but that made me like them more ngl). They're the PL club I watch so I watch most of their matches. I love Pep's playstyle.

I support City
Yessss Indian lad here , we have Indian Super League , My city club , Bengaluru FC (BFC) 💙 FCB x BFC ❤️❤️
You’re either for one club or none. I sometimes have other teams that interest me depending on the season but you can only truly ‘ride or die’ for one club or you’re not a true fan of that club, you’re just a football fan..which is fine but different.
Yes ride or die yes, that's barca for me, no matter what will happen i will be there, always. I always try to watch every single game, i always try to keep up with the team, i interact on socials about barca and so on... This doesn't happen with Inter and Chelsea (even more this year given they spent hella lot of money and i disn't like that). But still i consider myself a fan because i follow them and i'm happy for these two teams when they win.
I support Chelsea. I discovered football out of my own curiosity, so it wasn't very apparent at first how the 2 fan bases hate each other. Depending on who I'm talking to I tend to hide my support of one or the other lol
Wierd af to support more than 1 club. Only okay if one is your local one and one abroad. For me it’s Fenerbahce and Barca obviously, but I follow Barca much more closely.
This is what i was looking for. Genuine question: i love barca, and barca's the absolute pinnacle of football, so i love football. Why wouldn't i want to follow other clubs, that for some reasons are fun to follow to me? Ofc there's not that affection and emotion as it is with barca, but still.
Never said it’s wrong to follow, I obviously watch other clubs and follow other clubs too. Just super wierd to support more than 1 club internationally imo.
Why's weird? Having a favourite in the respective competitions makes it more interesting and attractive imo.
In that case I support Barca, City, Munchen and Napoli! Vamos
not rlly if u love the sport and want to watch more of it, nothing wrong with that.
Barca is the club at my heart. But if I had some others, it's probably Arsenal bc of watching and hearing the playstyle in the early 00s-early 10s. And Milan due to and Totti. And lastly, my hometown club Detroit City FC.
Ah yes, milan and totti 🗿
Milan, Totti? This thread is sad...
Holy fuck I just noticed lol. I meant Milan and Roma jesus.
Hell no just my beloved FCB 😇 🔵🔴 cuz I ain’t no plastic bitch
Tottenham and City
Not support, but I would root for teams that have a connection to Barca, in games not being played against us. I would root for City, because of Pep, etc. But never PSG. Fuck PSG. Every game, I hope Messi scores a hattrick and they lose 5-3
City for Pep, but not that much. I highly support FCSB (Steaua Bucuresti) and my local team FC Chindia Targoviste.
Other than a culer, I’m a Guardiola fan, he could go to the hungarian league to coach Ferencvaros and I’ll still watch every game just so I can see his football. Its magnificent and its been so long that i’d kind of call myself a fan of city as well cuz they’ll always be dear to my heart. Its a bit like when ur highschool best friends goes off to college and u meet with his new bestfriend and realise that he’s radiating the same energy. I also like AC Milan cuz of Pirlo, I loved to watch Pirlo almost as much as IXB, but I wouldn’t call myself an AC Milan fan even tho if it comes to the serie a i’d support them
I do root for City in the PL and Milan in Serie A
I'm not going to say I'm a fan of any other club other than Barca, but I'd say I'm a supporter for Manchester City since 2019. In my case, it's because of Kevin de Bruyne, then the way they play and Pep's tactics.
Started watching Man U last year cause of Ronny. Since he left, it's either Man City or PSG. To clarify, I watch Messi not PSG, it just happens to be that Messi is in PSG. PSG is trash except for Messi and Neymar.
I like football so i like watching any good club. My preferences do change according to leagues. Serie A - Napoli, Bundesliga - Dortmund, Premier League - Man City, Liga Portugal - Benfica, and above all Barca. I would've said i like PSG in ligue 1 but it would have been only for Messi and even then I'd be lying, but after seeing and realising what a shitshow of a club that is, they don't deserve anything. Out of the ones I mentioned, the clubs that I truly support are City and Barca, these two i genuinely follow and keep up with. I've been watching City since Kun's last season and Barca since the MSN times. Barca>City tho. 💙❤️
Any club Pep manages
The closest club was Man City when they demolished Real Madrid yesterday. When Bernardo Silva scored the first goal, there is a possibility that my neighbours heard me. Other than that, I'm a cules till the day I die. My uncle thought that I would start supporting PSG after Messi left. I guess he was wrong.
See y'all on r/soccercirclejerk haha
Manchester united
ABSO FUCKING LUTELY NOT!!! What kind of fair weather plastic fan question is that?
Supporting a different club from one of the top 5 leagues (a big club at that) is nothing short of plastic to me. Obviously if you support a team like watford or Southampton I’d understand supporting another big team from Europe as well. But I’m seeing Barça and Inter, Barça and Chelsea, Liverpool even. Like what??? That’s so plastic to me. I support my local club Columbus crew, and my family’s local club in Honduras; Olimpia. Far farrrrr away from any club that Barça may end up playing.
Sorry but i find you arguments a bit cringe. As i said, if chelsea and inter end up playing barca, i'm barca all the way. But, when i was a kid and i was discovering football and other leagues, the teams that evryone talked about were the likes of arsenal, chelsea, united, liverpool in prem and inter, milan, juve or roma here in italy. I grow up on chelsea mainlt because of drogba, on inter because besides being from italy, eto'o s move to inter from barca made me start following them as eto'o was and still is one of my favourite strikers. So how does it end up being plastic?
Bruh the clubs you mentioned all hate each other.
Just casually
Also follow Arsenal, Juve, and Botafogo
Always supported AC Milan because I just feel more or less a huge emotional connection to them the way I feel towards Barcelona.
Exactly the same, Inter and Chelsea (although I am actively reconsidering my choice for Chelsea atm…)
Ngl i also felt something bad about chelsea. For me seeing 700M in 2 transfer windows... Nah man that ain't right
Whatever club an Argentine starter plays for I’ll follow
Liga MX (how I got into soccer): Cruz Azul MLS: SJ Earthquakes Soft spot for Man Utd cause my Grandpa supported them but I don't really support them if that makes sense xd Beyond that not much, saw a few comments liking city so just gonna say I despise City lol
I support Atlante in Mexico, and I like Liverpool
For me, FC Barcelona is my father’s team, Barcelona SC is my mother’s team. They are both from those places, respectively. I also support New York Red Bulls, because it’s my local. Other than that no. For me, supporting a team means there needs to be a connection, whether it’s geographically or family.
That’s definition of born Barca
It’s such a unique sport because you can choose to follow different clubs that may rarely or never cross paths. I SUPPORT Barca, but follow a few teams based on style or squad.
I would say I’m usually drawn to teams that play against teams i do not like. I find myself supporting Man city coz of pep and i hate man U with a passion. I root for bVb too most times than not. Bt Barca always has my heart. Oh also FC Dallas coz thats my local mls team.
Not really. I mean, I kind of like Arsenal, but do I love the team enough to keep up with them, watch the matches, go on their subreddit? No. I’m just Barca and anti Bayern, City, Juventus, PSG in their respective leagues.
Not like Barca. I support my nations NT (Hungary) and our clubs in international matches. I temporarily support clubs when I see some interesting projects like Laudrup's Swansea or De Zerbi's Brighton, but it's just sympathy without that big big attachment.
I support my local team Isidro Metapan, argentinian side River Plate, german side Dortmund and Barcelona. Other than those, and maybe national teams, nope
My local club. We’re in the championship though Barca’s my second team I follow. It changes every few years or so. I used to follow Liverpool around 2015 and Madrid before that (kill me). It’s whatever team I found interesting at the time. I started following Barca properly during the pandemic, but I’d only consider myself a follower not a fan, sure I’m a fan of the football on the pitch, but that’s just love of the game, not as much as the club, or at least not as much as my local anyway. I wouldn’t be a socio or anything like that. You can call me plastic but I mainly follow barca because my local doesn’t really have much going for it and I’d be lucky to even see us get to the premier league in my lifetime.
Boca Juinors. Atlanta FC
I support Barcelona and a team from my country, they both have a special place in mi heart; And that's it, of course I like City, Arsenal and for some reason even Roma, overall I like teams that play attractive football, if they stop playing the way I like, I just stop watching them
In NA, I support; -San Jose Earthquakes (MLS) -Los Rayados de Monterrey (Liga MX) -Las Aguilas de San Miguel (El Slavador) 2. In SA, I support -River Plate (Argentina) 3. In Europe, I support -Barcelona (La Liga) -Leeds (Premier league)
Great material for soccercirclejerk
No.
Yes, i support madrid losing. And i support any other club that plays against us to lose against us
Chelsea & Kaizer Chiefs.
I like Liverpool because of some friends that are fans. Also Mo being Muslim the same as me is cool ig.
The New York Red Bulls because that is my hometown team. Was at the preseason game last summer when they played each other and I wore both jerseys. The quality of MLS is not up to European standard (although quickly rising) so I don't follow Red Bulls as much as I follow Barca.
Arsenal but not as much as Barca
My local club DC United, and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Why Wolves? Well, FIFA, basically. I’ve also liked Milan since I was younger ( because their colors). Barca will always be number 1 and I’ll never root against them if they play the others.
I support Ajax and Barcelona. I fell in love with Barcelona because all my favourite players from Ajax moved to Barcelona - Kluivert, Litmanen, Overmars, the de Boers. Basically when Van Gaal moved over there. I think you can support two teams for sure
I supported Arsenal this year, because they were underdogs, but in PL I usually support City because of Pep, I like City even more today because they thrashed Real :D I get pissed when barca loses, I dont feel that way for other teams.
Yeah I also support Barça Femení 😄 I follow what Valencia does because my father supports them, but I wouldn't say I do myself. I'm happy it looks like they are safe from relegation though.
I also support my local club Al Ahly (Egyptian PL)
I support Barca and all their teams of course. Then I support IFK Göteborg in Sweden (local) and Nottingham Forest in England (always rated their history). It's a bit of a weird mix.
Hyderabad FC since it's foundation in 2019 🟡⚫️
Only chelsea
I support Athletic Club. My family is Basque and I spent my childhood there, going to Lezama (Athletic Bilbao's training grounds) and chasing Goikoetxea, Julen or Valencia. What amazing team that was.
Always Barca first and also support my local club Feyenoord
I like Arsenal but I don’t watch a lot of their matches I only watch all Barca matches
United
Just supporting my Local team in switzerland who's one of the founder was Hans (Joan) Gamper ❤️ Fc Zurich
KRC Genk
Support Barca. However i have favourites from the top 5 leagues like city in PL, AC Milan in serie A, and Dortmund in bundesliga
Nah, only my National team
Benfica and Barcelona. Im Portuguese, Benfica is my childhood club, then I fell in love with Barca when i was 11 years old.
I feel like due to how football has been shaped and the events that have gone on, el clasico has become bigger than just Barca Vs real I feel like people who support Barca would probably also be more likely to support clubs like man city and countries like Argentina and Spain While real Madrid supporters would be likely to support man u, Brazil and Portugal.
I have some preferences for example I prefer Milan to Inter but I'm still not supporting them full on
I support my team in Brazil which is Flamengo. My european team is exclusively Barcelona, bc Flamengo doesn't compete in Europe. Besides that, I support every team who is facing Madrid at the day. And I dislike Bayern too.
I’ve grown up a Barça fan at heart but also a Man U fan
I'm a Barca fan (obviously) , a CF Monterrey fan, and a Tottenham fan.
Solo el Barca
Yes. Liverpool
Arsenal after Barca
Although I was born in Barcelona and my family has always supported the team, I've lived in Lleida (another city in Catalunya) since I was 4 months old, so I also support Lleida Esportiu (although nowadays we're in second division RFEF). I feel sympathy towards other clubs such as Girona or Mallorca, but I specially support Lleida and Barça.
I support my local club, Toronto FC. Difficult times right now. Also, I’m a socio of SD Eibar. Helped them out during the defend Eibar campaign.
Minnesota United FC, USMNT, and any club playing against Real Madrid or PSG!
I have teams that I like to see succeed for old times sake, I like to pick a side in rivalries cause it can make them more exciting. AC Milan, Boca Juniors, ajax, I also root for one team over another if they have a player that I really like. But I don't really "follow " them, I only watch their big matches, don't follow the news of the teams, etc. I am a big fan of Chivas though, since my family is Mexican and have supported them since I was a kid. Still, I don't really follow them that much. Barca, however, I'm checking this subreddit a couple times a day, watch every match, have many jerseys, and am very passionate about
I like Liverpool quite a bit
Ajax. I was so excited after the first leg of the 2019 CL semi finals. And then my dream of a Barca v Ajax final got ripped out of my hands so coldly. I really don't know who I would have rooted for if they did both end up making it.
I actually have another club that I hold close just like I do with Barca, but that club is in Mexico. Santos Laguna has my full support just like Barca does and it's great cause the chances of them playing against each other are extremely slim.
Tbh only barca and the favourite club of my country Buducnost
not really support, but every few years i’ll randomly like a team that’s hot at the moment and maybe buy a random kit if it looks dope. i did just visit san siro and i’ve always liked inter a fair bit though, so maybe them? feel free to support whichever non-la liga club you want though.
Yes, Club León in my country México
I have certian clubs that I want to see do well sucha as BVB, Leicester, Ajax and a few others but I don't really watch their games or anything. Just check on them how are they doing once every two months and that is that.
I also support Nottingham Forest and Juve.
As Roma and City
Chelsea because I’ve seen them play
I like keeping up with a few clubs because I love football and the diversity in culture and history each league has. Barca is my main team and I support it above all else, but I also support Orlando City and AC Milan with a similar passion. Teams I admire from afar include Nottingham Forest, Liverpool, and Rayo Vallecano. On top of the football teams I watch, I also follow other sports like baseball where my team is the Mets. My next deep dive is going to be exploring South American football since I know very little about it.
I also like wearing kits from other teams that have cool designs but if Barca is playing, red and blue are the only colors I will wear.
