Nothing's starnge about it. I don't like Milan, Inter and Manchester no matter what. Andy dislikes Manchester no matter what.
So i don't understand what's so strange about me disliking Barcelona no matter what.
But liking Barcelona no matter what implies that you are their fan or at least that you have a soft spot for them.
Now Andy and Fred both said that they won't like Barcelona if Barca plays shitty. Barcelona played shitty football last year but Fred still says they made some sweet moves and i know for sure that Andy was cheering for Barcelona against other teams last year even though Barcelona didn't play this breathtaking football.
Maybe calling them fans isn't appropriate. They don't love Barcelona the way they love Juve/Arsenal, but i feel that they have a soft spot for Barcelona and they had it when Barcelona played bad last year, just like they'll have it if Barca plays bad next year.
You see, you're making your own assumptions here.
Barca were poor last season but they were still entertaining. Contrary to popular belief, the two are not mutually exclusive. For example the 2006-2007 season, we played some of the most breathtaking football in Europe that season, i remember us playing almost every opposition team off the park, but we were wasteful, inconsistent and had a shit defense. Now we were poor overall that season, but we were damn entertaining.
The same could be said about Barca last season, sure they were inconsistent, sure they were contained by teams that parked the bus, but their short passing football is always entertaining, more so when its effective, but even when its not, i like watching Messi, Iniesta and Xavi pass the ball around.
He said Manchester way of passing throughout the pitch makes him vomit. So, if Manchester players pass the ball beautifully Andy will call it disgusting but if Barcelona do the same Andy will call it beautiful. It's not being a fan of beautiful football for sure. Neither for Andy and nor for Fred. Real used to show a very beautiful football at the time they had Zidane and Figo in their team but Fred says he hate them no matter what. Manchester is playing very beautiful many times yet Andy hates them. It's all okay in my opinion if Andy is a fan of Barca. In fact, what's wrong with this? But to say that he supports them because they're beautiful is a lie.
Yes i do, but i still loved watching them in that period, and i used to watch them week in week out, because i love beautiful football.
