New to soccer/Need help picking a team
Posted on 12/27/13 at 3:07 am

I started following soccer, and it has successfully blown me away. I am all in. Even playing just about everyday since I'm on winter break.
I need help picking a team. I prefer EPL, because it's so easy to watch with NBC Live Extra. Also, there's just something about it that attracted my attention from the start.
If anybody wanted to persuade me to like their team with reasons, that would help a lot. I am open to listening to all teams. I'm going to bed now. Hopefully will have some bites in the morning. Tia
If it helps at all,

If you pick
Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Man City or Arsenal you will get called a bandwagon fan but its what ever.

Funny to see that Spurs are no longer on the list.

Should have jumped on Liverpool a year or two ago.

UB - you just need to keep watching. If you're enjoying it, you will naturally find a player, style, team, supporter energy, history, etc. that just calls out to you.
I actually enjoy watching quite a few of the teams, and have a "hierarchy" of fandom, though Liverpool, thanks to Gerrard when I first got into it, is my permanent number 1. But I like quite a few other teams, and its amazing how the addition of one player will raise the likeability of a team for me (or drastically reduce their likeability).
Or you may end up like my brother, who has watched for years like me, but has never picked a team. He cheers for the teams with the US Players, but otherwise just enjoys watching. Drives me nuts as I wish he'd just pick a team so we could trash talk.

Yeah. Just start watching Jozy with Sunderland or Tim Howard with Everton or Geoff Cameron with Stoke. If you don't pick up one of those teams, one of thier opponents will catch your eye.
Root for the Americans for now. That's easy to do, and should come naturally.

Arsenal, Everton, Southampton. My 3.

These two teams just happen to play each other Sunday. However, Howard will not be playing because of the red card last game.

UP THE VILLA!
Brad Guzan is the TRUTH.
The Unis are the perfect mixture of Classic Design and Trendy Brilliance.
Super young squad.
However they will rip your heart out, shite on it, and leave it in the sun for a few days; then somehow clean you up good as new and bring you to a steak dinner.
This year have wins against Man City and Arsenal...
But I can't even type some of the losses we have.

I don't understand why people feel like they need to pick a team.

Seriously, Clark?
It's a lot easier for me to watch a game if I have a rooting interest.

Play FIFA and find a team and player that you like then watch the team play
I like watching Swansea Newcastle Southampton and everton play and you might avoid the bandwagon title cheering for these teams
