Dont see why? Germany was not to blame for WW1.
I won't get drawn on this. I wasn't around at the time.

Your statements that the Asians and Africans who support Man Utd do so because of some lingering inferiority complex handed down through the generations, and brought about by British colonisation is offensive. At best, it's a throwaway remark that hasn't been thought through.

They'll be Man City, Barca, Juve or Bayern fans in a few years anyway :)

On point - it's really down to the marketing, not the Colonisation. EPL is marketed like crazy world-wide and when that strategy begun Man U were head and shoulders above the rest of the EPL under Ferguson.

The Insufferable Red Cunts have been eliminated. What a glorious day to be a football fan. Losing to a mediocre team led by Montella :howler: :rofl:

Sevilla, Roma, or Liverpool (in that order) in the QFs please :baus: :tup: :)

Frank De Boer : "Mourinho might say I'm the worst manager in Premier League history, but tonight he's a manager who has spent nearly £1bn in his career and his teams play like that."
Is this a real quote? :lol:

lol @ Man Utd.

Congrats Juve, given tonight's performance the state of the EPL table and Utd's false and temporary placement, I would suggest you lot eliminated England's second best team.
:tup:

The only reason Spurs won't finish 2nd again this year is the Harry Kane injury. I'd have picked y'all to emerge from that 2nd-4th group. Clearly better than United imo, and your top level is above L'pool as well.

Why do you guys hate Utd? Fergie and his players always had great respect for us.

Their fans are premfaces, but that's about it.
The hate for United has only come about post-Fergie. It's this "world's biggest fanbase" spouting endless delusional nonsense about how great they before each season. I believe it's the fanbase most people hate. Hiring Mourinho does them no favours either.

It doesn't help that they have a very big fanbase with a lot of clueless fans. I personally like Mou, he's a hilarious personality and adds something interesting to the sport.

All the large fanbases seem to be full of annoying fans. Utd, Barca, Real.

And then there's Arsenal.

Also, there's a correlation between how attacking the team is and how delusional the fans are and their lack of footy knowledge. Arsenal, Barca, and now Liverpool.

Just because you werent around doesent mean you cant have the knowledge to know what happened back then, if you read about it and more. And offcourse I know marketing is the biggest reason many of them support an English club, I dont think you even get the point.

There for there is no point continue arguing this. Props to Spurs btw , a likeable English team :D

Most of those PL fans were colonized by the british, but suck their dick what fucking morons :lol:

But okay, its the same with South Americans and Spain. Still kinda sad when you think about lol.
It's whatever is on TV. Broadcasting and marketing.

Serie A was on in the 90s, I liked Del Piero, Zidane, Davids, and the Italy NT and Baggio, so I became Juve fan.

If I were 10 yrs younger, it'd have likely been a PL team or Real unfortunately.

Once you grow older, you know teams like Bayern and Juve are the most sensible, not when you're younger.
