Everton- my closet epl team while leeds is full retard

Heart of Midlothian- my mom's team when she was growing up in scotland

River Plate- loved watching aimar, saviola and d'alessandro in the early 2000s

FC Nürnberg - The first game I went to in Europe was to see them get promoted.

AFC Ajax - I lived in Holland for two years and they were the most fun team to watch.

I don't have an EPL team but would like to start following. My allegiance is up for grabs.

Liverpool - What can I say. Most exciting team to watch in the world right now, IMO.

Arsenal - When they are healthy and act like they want to be there, they can play some beautiful stuff (against bad teams at least).

Everton - Martinez has proved his worth. Outside of his 2 fullbacks, Mirallas, Lukaku, and Deulofeu, there's not a lot of talent there.

Dortmund - They just continue to replace great players who are sold with no name guys who become great under Klopp.

Real Madrid - CR7, Bale, Benzema, Di Maria, Modric, Isco. Ridiculous attacking talents. When they break on the counter, no one can keep up with them. I have them winning the Champs League.

Citeh - It's too bad they lost Aguero for so many games this season.

Atleti - They play with so much fight and passion. It's hard not to pull for them.

PSG - Zlatan, Cavani, Lavezzi, Lucas Moura. Fun to watch.

Roma - I watched most of their games when Bradley was there and a few more here and there since he left. It's cool to see them back playing good football again.

Sunderland - LOLOLOLOL. Poor, poor Jozy. God, I hope he gets sold so I can stop watching them play in hopes the next game will be his breakout.

Chelsea - Played defensive back my whole life and started following John Terry a long long time ago. Fell in love with the Bridge when I visited back in 03 and have been going back ever since.

West Ham - The working mans club. First game I ever saw live and the fans were very acceptive.

Arsenal- Started watching Henry early on and fell in love with the game and the club. Been a gooner ever since.

Flamengo- Went to Brazil on a mission trip when I was 15 or 16 and all the kids in the area supported them and hated Fluminense.

Other than that I just like to watch teams with good play styles that promote through their youth academies and don't splurge on the transfer market every window

ETA: been trying to find a good MLS team to support but I don't know where to start. Guess Ill support Atlanta FC or whatever they are going to be called

Was an Ajax fan because my youth coach lived in Amsterdam for7 years and always talked about Ajax. Fell in live with a few players, now an arsenal fan. Mainly because of bergkamp. Also why I liked barca, kluivert and overmars.

You can enjoy watching both teams without liking both teams.

Swansea - started following BPL during their first season back and liked their style and the history
Spurs - brother in law's team. Follow them for soccer conversation with him. Loved watching Bale as well

FC Dallas-We'll be an unstoppable force this year (until mid-June, of course)

Bordeaux-No reason really

Stuttgart-Ibesivic

USA

Chelsea - because I played winger when I started watching the EPL religiously and Chelsea had Arjen Robben, Damien Duff, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Joe Cole at the same time.

Other than that - anywhere that an American international (past, present or future) is playing.

Spurs - Just got into following soccer a few years ago, started a manager mode and wanted to choose a good team but not a top 4. After playing loads of Fifa with them, I followed them the entire following season and have since. Plus Bale made it pretty easy to watch their games.

Liverpool - Really like watching them play. Exciting football. I don't really take issue with Suarez. If not Spurs, I probably would have tried to latch onto Liverpool.

Juventus - I'm a fan of the Italian National team, and when it came to choosing a Serie A team to follow, they were easiest to identify with because their presence on the Azzuri. That being said, I don't really have disdain for any Serie A teams yet.

Real Madrid - Just so much talent and explosiveness, always fun to watch. I am a fan of both Bale and Ronaldo.

Dortmund - Really fun to watch, Klopp seems to be one of the most personable and dedicated managers out there.

I'm a big fan of Gareth Bale as well. Don't really care for any of the three teams he's played for, but it's hard not to root for the guy.

- Manchester United: Been my favorite team and my dad's favorite team since I was a kid. Bandwagon, yes. Video game-aided, yes. But I've been a fan since my early middle school days and have stayed true to United ever since (which has been really easy except for this year, but the Moyes nightmare is over for now).

- Real Madrid: CR7 is my favorite athlete of all-time, and I would him and his team off a cliff. I also like Mourinho a whole lot, so it's been fun watching them play these last few years. I wouldn't call myself a RM fan, but I watch a good bit of their games.

- Everton: They have been fun to watch this season. Really wish they could've won today so they would end up in the UCL, but I think that's over.

- Seattle Sounders: Sucked in by the gigantic crowds and Fredy Montero. I've watched a lot of MLS these last few years, but I would say this is my favorite team to follow.

- Sheep's Answer of Wherever American Internationals are Playing

(I used to watch a lot of Inter Milan and Celtic when I had Fox Soccer Plus and before beIN took over the Serie A rights, but that has died over the last few seasons.)

Newcastle United- fanbase was described to me as most similar to LSU's. Single club city with a great stadium. Extremely high pubs-per-capita. People also nicer in the north of england than the south.

Schalke- similar to Newcastle. Awesome, awesome fans. Great stadium as well.

PSG- because Paris is so amazing. Lost some luster for me after they were bought out by some questionable characters. Still like watching them but don't consider myself a "fan" per se.

Portland Timbers- I'm holding off on claiming an MLS club in case Austin gets one or I move somewhere that has a team but Portland is my placeholder. Great fans, great city. Everyone wants to like Seattle so the hipster in me wants to oppose that trend.

Rangers- because frick TN Bhoy
