He's a boyhood Everton fan, so he could go there.

It seems as if most scouse footballers support Everton - Rooney, Barton, Fowler, Carragher, McManaman ect.

It's pretty tight at United and everyone get's on (there's no factions like at Barca).

Pique said when he joined Barca that the dressing room is completely different. At United it's one big group whereas at Barca you had the French guys, the Spanish players ect.

He did say though that the dressing room is even at Barca. At United there is/was a hierarchy.

edit:

"Even though we're really tight at Barca, there are different groups. There are the Catalans, who are the captains, the home-grown players with the club in their blood," he is quoted as saying by Uefa.com.

"In Manchester, there was more of a hierarchy. The senior players were greatly respected, and it was taken for granted that the likes of Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes were in charge."

In the last 5 minutes about a thousand people on twitter have said United have accepted a 19M bid for Berbatov from PSG.

Source is The Mirror.

manure fan will your kid will also follow your club?[serious question or you are going to give him freedom]

I won't believe twitter, FML hope Berba doesn't go :cry:

19 million would soften the blow but still

Where would he play in PSG? Not undermining him, but they already have Pastore, Menez, and Gamiero...all who they bought THIS year.

Even if the kid's born and raised in another city (excluding Liverpool/London/Leeds)? What would be the harm in them supporting someone like Sunderland?

Of course there are groups of friends on the team, different that and suggesting everyone doesn't get on because of that

he also said his opinion was taken straight away when before it was certain players who were in charge, which makes the friends thing seem even less important..

Nothing against Sunderland, but supporting United goes back generations.

I once thought about what I'd do if I had a child with someone who was with someone else at the time of birth and the boyfriend was a heavyweight boxer who was a huge City/Liverpool fan....

I hate your unborn child.

I've solved this dilemma by promising myself that I'll never live in another Scottish city for any length of time.

What if they support Peterhead or Brechin City?

Calum1903 · Aug 2, 2011

This reminds me of the time my wee brother (who was about 4 at the time) claimed to like Rangers. He got a hiding from his brothers, and when he complained to our dad about it, he was told he'd be living in the shed if he didn't sort himself out.

He doesn't like football now. Partial win.

She'll probably arrange for your wedding to be on the same day as Aberdeen face Rangers in the Scottish Cup final.

I'll never live in Peterhead (shitehole populated by Rangers-supporting fishermen and junkies) or Brechin (closer to Dundee than Aberdeen), so I don't understand the question.

This 4-2-fantasia stuff always crack me up.

Btw where it started? It was Leo himself who coined the term?

Here in Brazil nobody uses this terminology. At least not while trying to look serious.

Calum1903 · Aug 2, 2011

You're all forgetting that PSG's flair will be balanced out by this tower of partially-sighted strength.

I do genuinely loathe Peterhead. It started when I was up there watching my brother play and some bigger kids stole my ball. After that, they were the only under-14 team I know of that's been forced to move to a neutral venue due to crowd trouble. And despite that, their parents still spat at me and they still threw chairs at us in the dressing rooms. It's the type of place I imagine Stoke to be.

As for Brechin, they have a fucking hedge running along one side of their pitch.
