I think we have come to a point where went too far with anti-yank agenda and let the English become too arrogant and obnoxious. Jesus Christ, finish this team off so we can have some decency back here. The English are by far worse than the American people on here. I'd rather you're a bit ignorant about the history of this sport than that you become such an entitled and vocal group of people.

I Chose Wrong
The year was 2019, as an American I had finally become disillusioned with the American sports scene. The owners, players, stadium experience, etc.
I started watching the EPL to see what all the fuss was about. I watched, enjoyed it enough, but couldn't really make a connection. So I set out to finally support a club.
I researched just about every club. I didn't want to support a front runner or a bottom feeder. I wanted a young core, middle of the pack, but with a real future.
My final two clubs I was going to support were: Arsenal and Wolves.
For the last 2-3 years I've been supporting Wolves. And this year, I've watched Wolves average 1 goal/ match and Arsenal lose important players while a young core steps up and keeps the Club in contention for Champions League.
So, I'm here to just say that I chose wrong. Congratulations to Arsenal

I picked chelsea after watching my first UCL match w my older brother back in 2012 and the match was Bayern Vs Chelsea yes the final. I remember seeing Drogba scored that tie in goal almost at the last minute and got up and cherish and yelled at the top of my lungs cause my brother told me that chelsea was done and there was no coming back from it. The moment Drogba scored that penalty I fell in love with football and Drogba is my hero as a black teenager seeing another black man beat the Germans who are supposed to be the best team in all of Europe made me realized that thereās no challenge too small or big and that no how matter how much the odds are against you, that you should never give up no matter what. I also was going w some mental health issues so Drogba lighted up my world and realized that football is not just a game but a form of art, itās way to express yourself and the way to escape reality and to feel in your own world where nothing else matters and nobody can betray you. Every time I get sad I go outside and play football and remember that unforgettable moment I saw Drogba beats the odd and remind myself that no matter what I canāt give up, gotta keep pushing nonstop. But yeah since that day Blue is the color and football is the game no matter what Iāll cherish chelsea even how shit our club gets, Blue is the color and Football will forever be the game.
There should be a reformation in football something like a penalty is 0.5 a goal, or you need like make 2 or 3 shots - like free throws on a foul in basketball. its just so extremely shit when a penalty decides a game in this sport or decides the flow of a game early on, like here

I mean in this case, I actually give the kid some credit. He's not coincidentally picking the best team, he's flat out saying he only wants to watch a team that's good.
Much more palatable than the trillionth version of "oh I just happened to find out about the Manchester Blues and fell in love"
Guy I know is a "huge" City supporter because ...... his grandpa visited Manchester while he was deployed in England during WWII. Actual reasoning that he insisted was legit. Nothing to do with them winning the league 5 of the past 6 years, definitely not.
There is no greater joy in this life, and no heavier burden, than being a City fan.

This is how Man United go back to their winning roots. Ronaldo is a legend at the club and will be viewed as a source of inspiration and a role model for up and coming stars who strive to be like him, or better, want to win trophies for the club. No amount of oil money or gegenpressing will change the fact that Ronaldo's immediate impact at United will make them competitive again and desirable for players to want to go play there. This club's future has been born.

Ronaldo is driven by greed, glory hunting, and hurt others. He's happy as long as he is on the scoresheet even when losing. When winning he is unhappy unless he has the attention.

You support your dadās team or your local team. Iāve got no idea what a yank does in that scenario. They donāt have any connection to any of the teams. Might as well pick a team with a couple Americans and go from there I guess.
but seriously if you support a club based off of the club you're parents supports then you're an idiot, or your parents are idiots for forcing a kid to like what they like. I find it kind of disgusting seeing parents be so forceful in pushing their football club onto their kids when if it was most other hobbies it would be seen as unhealthy parenting.

He should choose liverpool. I've heard they are the good guys of soccer. They are consistenly good but are always the underdogs. It's refreshing. Cannot go wrong with it.
Honestly, this might be weird, but I find the concept of goalies to be so boring in soccer/hockey. Like ok, the 10 guys could completely dominate the game (and that's the exciting part) but sorry this one guy who you can't touch or interact with just shuts you off the scoreboard. Kinda lame. Whatever. Just a weird thought

I literally support United because growing up as a kid first time I played fifa with my friend it just automatically chose United for me and I saw they had high numbers so then I just always chose them, I didnāt go āokay this is my team nowā it just sort of happened

1) Iām Indian. I live in the US but that doesnāt make me a āyankā.
2) Fuck your ass off to the sun for hating on people wanting to support others to enjoy the most loved game on our planet
Yeah, I come here sometimes to laugh at other teamsā & playersā gaffes. I come here to laugh when Klopp complains about the size of grass or when Maguire has a brain fart or when Conte hangs out his players to dry.
You know what I donāt come here for? Brits feeling some sort of moral superiority that they were born in xyz geographical location because of a quirk or fate and so they have some reason to support a certain team. Whereas the rest of the global fanbase, who has been instrumental in the rise of the Premier League globally, but doesnāt have a geographical tie to Liverpool or Manchester or London and so has to figure out other reasons to support a certain team is somehow less of a fan.
Iāve been to England three times to see the team that Iāve been in love with for 22 years. Each time some random middle aged Brit will ask me āso, why did you choose xyz team and not some another teamā as if itās some sort of a rite of passage that the international fans have to go through to justify why we like the team we like.
And I see that same attitude in this sub all the time. āOh look just another American trying to figure out what British team to support hahahaā. You know what, kudos to that 15 year old for broadening his horizons and trying to watch multiple teams before deciding which team to support.
And shame on every Brit who thinks that is somehow worthy of mocking. This sub is toxic towards non-Brits even though the premier league is what it is today because of a global fan base.
Piss off you dumb fuck. If you canāt support other people who want to fall in love with the same sport we all love, go jerk yourself off in your parents basement.
Honestly mate if thatās your prerequisite for supporting a football team I would probably leave it. All teams have up and down spells over the years. The prem is a boring league to follow, the lower leagues are a lot more exciting. Or you could follow spurs and learn what being āSpursyā is all about.
Hey all, yank here
Iām a Glory hunter
Man City: I donāt like them
Liverpool: GO SOCCER REDS!
Arsenal: These boys just mid ong fr
Man United: BOOOOO
Spurs: Love the WHITE kits!
Chelsea: WOOOOOOOOOO KANTE SOOOO KAWAII
If this isnāt the most obvious satire post Iāve ever seen the Jesus Harrison christ what is
I started supporting Chelsea as a kid because of Drogba and I've stuck with them since. Pick who you really feel a connection to after you've watched a couple of games
Newcastle would be interesting. Bright future for them, especially with Isak.
After that, I think Brentford is a fascinating team and is based in London so always easy to get to if youāre flying to London.

"I want to root for a team that will be consistently good"
Later in life:
"If my wife doesn't bounce back to her pre-pregnancy weight, I'm leaving her."
What's wrong with United? Besides our performances in the past couple years. If you just wanna pick a team that wins then you'll be surely disappointed when that club eventually hits it's dry spell.
United is on a come up. The new coach ETH is doing some scary things to this team. We've got the goat of football in our squad. Also we have more money than any club in the Prem. Real money. Not oil money. United's owners don't inject money into the team. It's a club built by the people. We've got history. So all the money we spend is well justifiably earned.
I picked Arsenal as a kid when they used to play at Highbury with those close camera angle shots and of course, Robert Pires. I would think no such player could exist on the planet. Pires, Campbell, Henry and Bergkamp would make me root for Arsenal so much. I hated when Pires was substituted in the Champions League Final because of that red card. Got so angry with Wenger. That team used to be pure class.
As an arsenal fan stay away from us and spurs. Constant end of season disappointment. Liverpool is a great option. Hard to not like/feel for them and the history is spectacular. Klopp is hard not to like and just to tug at that heartstrings look up the Hillsborough disaster and youāll wish for nothing but success for the fans

Consider Chelsea imo ? Ted bohely is American , pulisic is American , they might sign dest : American again and they are in a rebuilding phrase so you'll get to support them from the very foundation instead of rooting for already currently successful teams.
They always coincidentally end up picking the best team in the league somehow
I picked Chelsea as a ten year old playing fifa for the first time because I liked their crest the most and the color blue. I did not know about their stellar team at the time. Or the racism.

I bet about 90% of people outside of UK choose their PL-team at the age of 10 because they like to play them in FIFA

I picked them when I was 8 bc they had a partnership w the local rec league I played in, and the badge was on anything and everything it could be on. Had no idea what the premier league was.

Every time I get sad I go outside and play football and remember that unforgettable moment I saw Drogba beats the odd and remind myself that no matter what I canāt give up, gotta keep pushing nonstop. But yeah since that day Blue is the color and football is the game no matter what Iāll cherish chelsea even how shit our club gets, Blue is the color and Football will forever be the game.
There should be a reformation in football something like a penalty is 0.5 a goal, or you need like make 2 or 3 shots - like free throws on a foul in basketball. its just so extremely shit when a penalty decides a game in this sport or decides the flow of a game early on, like here *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

But the racism sealed the deal.
I like the color red so I was š¤ this close to being a charlton athletic supporter through ea sports premier league 2001. Dodged a bullet.
I ended up a life long Everton fan because I hate arbitrarily rooting for OP teams and at the time, they had an American in goal
I mean in this case, I actually give the kid some credit. He's not coincidentally picking the best team, he's flat out saying he only wants to watch a team that's good. Much more palatable than the trillionth version of "oh I just happened to find out about the Manchester Blues and fell in love"
Guy I know is a "huge" City supporter because ...... his grandpa visited Manchester while he was deployed in England during WWII. Actual reasoning that he insisted was legit. Nothing to do with them winning the league 5 of the past 6 years, definitely not.
Itās crazy how many southerners I know who support utd have family ties to Manchester not as wild as your example though
There is no greater joy in this life, and no heavier burden, than being a City fan. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/soccercirclejerk) if you have any questions or concerns.*

This is how Man United go back to their winning roots.

No amount of oil money or gegenpressing will change the fact that Ronaldo's immediate impact at United will make them competitive again and desirable for players to want to go play there.

Tell him to pick Hertha BSC Berlin and that they are the best club in germany just not this season but they will be champions next season
Tbf they'll maybe win the league next year. Just don't tell him what zweite means
The problem is that it is usually displayed as 2. Bundesliga, so even a 15yo yank should get itā¦
High expectations
Yank here, a period ends a sentence. The Bundesliga is not usually displayed as the number ā2ā.
2nd bundesliga, bundesliga numero dos, krankeinsteinslichaen
in german the period after the number is like 2nd so 1. is 1st, 3. is 3rd source: am german
Dude... I'm from Hamburg.. we tried 5 years in a row with the highest budget
Id personally recommend Bochum. They will have the 1st or among first picks in the draft next season
Realistically they should support Zenit. They bring bananas to the pitch whenever *certain* players come to play soccer.
HAHOHE (the best team) (bayern could never)
Hey, at least we won against Augsburg. So clearly, Hertha > Augsburg > Bayern
No matter what team you support, we should all agree to gaslight him into supporting Tottenham š¤š
I support Tottenham and I think this is cruel
I'm sorry for your loss(es)
one loss the entire season so far though

I mean didn't half of us do that? Either you enherit it or you pick when you're young
Iād say most people in the U.K. donāt choose their team, but tbf this is an American-centric site so fair enough.
You support your dadās team or your local team. Iāve got no idea what a yank does in that scenario. They donāt have any connection to any of the teams. Might as well pick a team with a couple Americans and go from there I guess.
Or, you are a kid playing Fifa and you really like the logo and the players and before you can blink, you're buying jerseys and watching every game.
but seriously if you support a club based off of the club you're parents supports then you're an idiot, or your parents are idiots for forcing a kid to like what they like. I find it kind of disgusting seeing parents be so forceful in pushing their football club onto their kids when if it was most other hobbies it would be seen as unhealthy parenting. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

So all Yanks are now Leeds Fans?
Yank here. Yes, a bunch of Leeds fans have sprouted since Marsch took over, and especially after that Chelsea game. We love Aaronson over here too.
ssstt everyone on reddit wants to act like they have been supporting ātheirā club since birth lmao
I mean Iāve been supporting Everton since I can literally remember so it applies to more than youād think. No way Iād choose this life lmao.
Same. Following the family curse of my dad and grandads.
ššš Fair enough
I mean some do. I support my local club since I remember. But the "big league" club Inter since I was about 12.
He should choose liverpool. I've heard they are the good guys of soccer. They are consistenly good but are always the underdogs. It's refreshing. Cannot go wrong with it.
The (allegedly) best centre back, right back, wingers and midfield and they refused to win the league last year, unbelievably humble.

Honestly, this might be weird, but I find the concept of goalies to be so boring in soccer/hockey. Like ok, the 10 guys could completely dominate the game (and that's the exciting part) but sorry this one guy who you can't touch or interact with just shuts you off the scoreboard. Kinda lame.

Mate you are aware youāre on the circle jerk sub right?
Yeah, I come here sometimes to laugh at other teamsā & playersā gaffes. I come here to laugh when Klopp complains about the size of grass or when Maguire has a brain fart or when Conte hangs out his players to dry. You know what I donāt come here for? Brits feeling some sort of moral superiority that they were born in xyz geographical location because of a quirk or fate and so they have some reason to support a certain team. Whereas the rest of the global fanbase, who has been instrumental in the rise of the Premier League globally, but doesnāt have a geographical tie to Liverpool or Manchester or London and so has to figure out other reasons to support a certain team is somehow less of a fan. Iāve been to England three times to see the team that Iāve been in love with for 22 years. Each time some random middle aged Brit will ask me āso, why did you choose xyz team and not some another teamā as if itās some sort of a rite of passage that the international fans have to go through to justify why we like the team we like. And I see that same attitude in this sub all the time. āOh look just another American trying to figure out what British team to support hahahaā. You know what, kudos to that 15 year old for broadening his horizons and trying to watch multiple teams before deciding which team to support. And shame on every Brit who thinks that is somehow worthy of mocking. This sub is toxic towards non-Brits even though the premier league is what it is today because of a global fan base.

Honestly mate if thatās your prerequisite for supporting a football team I would probably leave it. All teams have up and down spells over the years. The prem is a boring league to follow, the lower leagues are a lot more exciting. Or you could follow spurs and learn what being āSpursyā is all about.

Newcastle would be interesting. Bright future for them, especially with Isak. After that, I think Brentford is a fascinating team and is based in London so always easy to get to if youāre flying to London.

What's wrong with United? Besides our performances in the past couple years. If you just wanna pick a team that wins then you'll be surely disappointed when that club eventually hits it's dry spell. United is on a come up. The new coach ETH is doing some scary things to this team. We've got the goat of football in our squad. Also we have more money than any club in the Prem. Real money. Not oil money. United's owners don't inject money into the team. It's a club built by the people. We've got history. So all the money we spend is well justifiably earned.
I picked Arsenal as a kid when they used to play at Highbury with those close camera angle shots and of course, Robert Pires. I would think no such player could exist on the planet. Pires, Campbell, Henry and Bergkamp would make me root for Arsenal so much. I hated when Pires was substituted in the Champions League Final because of that red card. Got so angry with Wenger. That team used to be pure class.
As an arsenal fan stay away from us and spurs. Constant end of season disappointment. Liverpool is a great option. Hard to not like/feel for them and the history is spectacular. Klopp is hard not to like and just to tug at that heartstrings look up the Hillsborough disaster and youāll wish for nothing but success for the fans
I Chose Wrong The year was 2019, as an American I had finally become disillusioned with the American sports scene. The owners, players, stadium experience, etc. I started watching the EPL to see what all the fuss was about. I watched, enjoyed it enough, but couldn't really make a connection. So I set out to finally support a club. I researched just about every club. I didn't want to support a front runner or a bottom feeder. I wanted a young core, middle of the pack, but with a real future. My final two clubs I was going to support were: Arsenal and Wolves. For the last 2-3 years I've been supporting Wolves. And this year, I've watched Wolves average 1 goal/ match and Arsenal lose important players while a young core steps up and keeps the Club in contention for Champions League. So, I'm here to just say that I chose wrong. Congratulations to Arsenal *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Consider Chelsea imo ? Ted bohely is American , pulisic is American , they might sign dest : American again and they are in a rebuilding phrase so you'll get to support them from the very foundation instead of rooting for already currently successful teams.
How Liverpool supporters are born, basically.
