Growing up Juventus was the team I mainly supported. I had some attachment to PSG due to Raí who I fancied. IFK Gothenburg because they were inspiring underdogs. Barcelona because of, well they had a lot of fun players but Koeman was one of 'em. When I started playing football I was small but could outrun anyone so I played as a striker because no one could catch me. Eventually as you grow older, others evolve and the game is more organized, so I was a made a right winger to make use of my speed (we played 2-3-1). I then found McManaman and grew very fond of him. Like him, I've never been the super-dribbler and relied on pace. So he was the guy to mimic for me with his very basic but effective skills. For the same reason I remember Overmars being someone I really got inspired by. But McManaman was someone I really looked up to so I had some attachment to Liverpool too. I was so sad when he left Pool for RM because I knew it was a senseless deal for everyone but Pool. Same could be said for Jesper Blomqvist in Gothenburg.
Anyway, interesting to see all the English defenders doing so well in Serie A. Quite many players overall here now if we include the Scots too.
Will be interesting to see where Kalvin Phillips and Modric ends up in January.
