Good to see you on here, WM. Torino has a problem with staying up, but it´s important they stay topflight. Juve needs it (as does Torino).
You too Dandy.

Yeah, Torino really struggled the past decade but recently they've been doing well. They're managing to replace the stars they're selling with some great youth (the young striker Andrea Belotti is blowing up) and use the money for quality mid-table players that are moving from bigger clubs (like Adem Ljalic, Iago Falque, Joe Hart, Leadro Castan etc etc) with a keen eye for team building.
They're also renovating their stadium.
Seems they'll be around challenging for Europa League spots into the near future.
Really good to see.

The second division of the English tier, the Football League Championship. S and Brave's teams are stuck down there.

The epicenter of the beautiful game. Where Leeds can win 2-0 despite only 22% possession. If a Tuesday night trip to huddersfield doesn't get your competitive juices flowing then you're in the wrong sport, buddy boy. Nothing like starting a Saturday morning with some earl grey, a biscuit, and the view of a 66% sold out Ashton Gate.

Ok. That's what I figured but he threw me off when he said Swansea was getting "promoted" next year.

Premier League...AFC Bournemouth. If you like Cinderella stories, this is the team for you. A few years ago, this team was in the lowest leagues and about to go under. In Eddie Howe, they have a young manager that plays a style that's fun to watch and has been incredibly successful. I also enjoy the fact that they play in one of the world's top leagues in Dean Court, a stadium that is below 12,000 capacity.
Yep. I picked them to follow starting last season and I don't regret it. They aren't great by any means but generally are entertaining. I love the back story too

Eddie Howe is an awesome manager.

If you like attacking, goal scoring football than Liverpool is your team with Klopp right now. A bonus is that this also holds true for their opponents as well.

It was my high school's color loser.

And I'd rather be a City fan than be like every other neckbeard I see walking around in a United shirt.
Bournemouth are a great freaking story. Still crazy how they dropped to league 2 after the 17 point deduction and wouldn't have been relegated at all had that not been handed down.
