Lol. I feel you. I am also a die hard Barcelona fan but most times I find myself watching liverpool's highlight and checking out their page on Facebook, all because of Sadio mane (my second favourite player in the world after messi). I don't care if liverpool win or lose a match as long as sadio scores, I'm good. I love Barcelona but there's nothing wrong in having a side club, liverpool.
go away jor. Liverpool is no one's side chick.

The classic champions league finals in 2005 between Liverpool and AC Milan made me admire Liverpool and eventually started supporting the club!

Not just because they won the UCL but for the fact that they refused to surrender in the face of adversity!

If you are 3 goals down in first half against a star studded AC Milan team,it was best to just play safe and hope you don't concede more...but not Liverpool!

They refused to give up....I can still remember Steven Gerard scoring the first goal in the second half and the way he gingered his team mates and the already humilated Liverpool supporters in the stadium was so emotional for me!

When Liverpool finally got the equalizer,I was jumping as if naija had won the world cup for the first time! grin
Its been all about Liverpool since then... kiss
Liverpool is an idea. They never give in. It's special. Who thought a team like Liverpool could win the UCL that year with the stars that filled all the big clubs?

Wow, The Rothmans football show on NTA in the mid 90s to early 2000s made me fall in love with SIR ALEX FERGUSON, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Dwight Yorke, Andy Cole and the whole team and club as a whole. WHEN MANCHESTER UNITED WAS MANCHESTER UNITED.



A club full of legends and heroic moments.

Real Madrid. 1999/2000 UCL. Can't remember if it was the round of 16 or Q- final round against Man Utd. First leg ended 0-0 in Madrid. Man Utd fans didn't allow us rest about how they would defend their title as they were the defending champions then. 2nd leg in Manchester, before we knew what was happening, Man Utd was 0-3 down. Game ended 2-3 I think. Man Utd was out of the UCL. Fell in love with Real Madrid from that day for silencing the Man Utd fans for us then. And one highlight in the game was the turn that Redondo did on Hernan Berg (if I still remember the name well) before passing to Raul Gonzalez to score... Magical.

I lived close to the old Arsenal stadium. It was naturally to start supporting them especially at a period when Kanu was at his peak and the club was a delight to watch

My Dad was an ardent Ac Milan supporter( during the says of Gullit, Rijkaard and Marco Van Basten) but surprisingly I chose Man Utd in 1993 after watching Dennis Irwin bombard the left channel for the whole 90mins. Dennis Irwin is a defender(no3) for those who don't know him.

Am a staunch Manchester City supporter and I started supporting the team in 2009 because Robson Sousa popularly known as Robinho.


Although am a Rossonerri faithful + Ac Milan) but because of the fact that Italians doesn't make their post with English I was not really enjoying following them online on their social media pages. Therefore I develop much love for Manchester city

I was seeing a match between Liverpool and Manchester United...I was fascinated by the way Fernando Torres played and being the 'scoring machine', lol..there and then, I became a Liverpool fan.
The match ended in favor of Liverpool...4 goals to 1 or so.

Most people thought because I'm a lady that I'm supporting any club because of a man. So sad...
Anyways,
my first club was monaco because of fernando morentes (around 2003)
Second club was Arsenal (2006) cos of henry, and i continued supporting arsenal cos of players like cesc fabregas-i enjoyed watching him as a midfielder, making those passes. Such a wonderful playmaker, van persie, giroud
2008...Alongside arsenal,i was supporting Ac milan because of shevchenko
I kept on supporting arsenal till around 2018 when giroud left
2018...i supported chelsea cos of giroud ( i see him as a striker that brings class to his game). I noticed kante too and i liked the way he played. Keeps the ball calm and defends it well. I also noticed marco alonso.
2019...i supported chelsea because of hazard. That guy is exceptional. I just love the way he carried chelsea that season
2020...i supported chelsea because of pulisic (he was great that season too)
I also supported liverpool because i knew how hungry they were for the league title and i felt they deserve
I also supported Bayern for the championship title because i saw their determination and hunger and because of kimmich (i so love that guy passes and control), thiago alcantara (such a marvelous player to watch...I'm always happy when he has the ball . I love this long passes), Alaba (i swear this guy is good...he will be missed next season), lewandoski (a hungry striker...nothing special but i see his hunger for goals and i like it)
2021...after watching a few games i decided to support:
La liga- real madrid cos of hazard, modric (so good in that centre midfield. I hated last night champions league game cos i felt zidane didn't utilize him well. I felt he play him out of position), kroos (i love his long passes), vasquez, sergio ramos (though a rough defender but a good passer. I love the way he moves forward to attack and backward to defend), varane (i see him as a secret weapon in madrid defense. You wont know he's there until he dispossess his opponent without losing control)
Serie A- Ac milan cos of zlatan ibrahamovic
Premier league- I'm really indifferent. All i know is i don't want liverpool to win the league title, though i perp in to watch their matches just so i can see thiago alcantara and robertson. I still support chelsea once in awhile when i see giroud or pulisic or ben chilwell (i enjoy watching him play so much)
Champions league -Bayern munich. I still see the hunger though not as strong as last season.

It was in 08/09 that United won 1-0 at Anfield and Liverpool won 4-1 at old trafford
