Does anyone watch football here, preferibly the english premier league. If so who are your favorite teams? My dad is from Middlesbrough, so they are my favorite english team, but im from Aberdeen, Scotland, so they are my Scottish team. I am interested in seeing your views.

too many stars, too many different personalities, it's hard to gell
just look at them 2-3 years ago, when they didn't had all those players, they were much better. anyway, i'm happy to see them losing, they're like the lakers of the nba :p

yup, thats why chelsea is so much better. They have basically the same funds as real, but they actually do scouting and get players that will help them win.. not pbig stars that will help them get attendance.

do you have fox soccer channel? (formerly; fox sports world) they play a lot of arsenal games, and a lot of review shoes to recap all the games. That channel is a life saver, at least fox did one thing right

Chelsea 1 - Barcelona 1

Barcelona beats Chelsea in 2009 UEFA Champions League.

The next step is Manchester United in the final. The date is May 27th in Rome.

Let's go Bar?a to our third Champions League.

i picked man u to repeat at the beginning of the season.... what a game between barca and chelsea the ref blew it for chelsea was hoping for a rematch of last year

To be fair, the ref was a disaster, Chelsea have reasons to complain.

But Bar?a was the only one trying to play, this thing happen when you just think of defending.

true after being up a man they should have put more pressure on barca so i guess they deserved what they got

I support Barca as all of you might have guessed from my sig. The Chelsea game was one of the most incredible upsets i have ever witnessed, well apart from that 99 champions league Final betwen Man U and Bayern. To be fair Chelsea deserved it more than we did but than again luck helps the strong. :)

Against Man U i believe it will be an awesome match. Two teams that play a very attractive football. (Yes FOOTBALL :)) I am a little upset we will miss Abidail, Marquez and Alves in defence but Pujol is vack so we should be able to contain CR7 and Co.

Can't wait. :)

Manchester United all my life. My dad came over from Bristol but he was a dead set Red Devil fan, probably cause his mum was Arsenal.

I cant see Man Utd losing the final, Barcelona's defence is not that great but missing 3 key defenders for the final only helps our cause. Dont think they will be able to contain Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez and Berbatov.

Hopefully we can go back to back and further stamp our claim as being the best club in the world

well we are reigning European champions, current World Club champions, reigning EPL champions and set to win it again.

Did Barcelona win their league last year?

Did i say we are the best club in the world? NO
And till it is set and done you are not the best club. That will be settled in Rome. We are about to win the Primera Liga and you are set to win the EPL. We are both in the CL final and til' may 27 you are just another british team. We already kicked out the best of them in Chelsea. Your midfield is old with Giggs and Scholes.

Need i remind you we scored 4 to Bayern, 6 to Madrid in the last month?
