    What English Premier League Team do you have most confidence in?

    And which team is the most exciting to watch...?

    i am just curious bc i dont know much about it but i am going to try watch some soccer this weekend. They only play 1 game per week right?

    They play one Premier League game a week but in between some teams play Champions League and FA Cup matches and very frequently you don't know if key players are even going to play; tread carefully.

    Chelsea and Man City are the most exciting to watch by far. Newcastle is always fun to watch and so is Liverpool, win loose or draw. As far as confidence, obviously Chelsea are most likely to win, but the line reflects that. For good value, I like Newcastle and West Ham ML or line.

    It's true thoughthe only other team you could even put in that conversation is Man City.

    I do make decent money off our games. I probably would make more if I could ever bring myself to fade us but I can't. In that sense it's good to support a good team cause you rarely feel the itch to fade.

    Man City -111 this weekend looks good.

    United are the most entertaining by far. Can't defend, score outrageous goals, calamity when up two goals etc. etc.

    Chelski would park the bus when up by half a goal if the could. It's typical Mourinho so far aside from the incredible form of Diego Costa, but he's breaking down physically because of all the horse semen he ingests.

    Honorable mention to West Ham, City and Southampton so far this season.

    Chelsea such a fun/exciting team and players but their coach is such a bitch.......Hard to root for him, always crying about something when he has much better players than most teams

    The worst was Mourinho calling out West Ham for parking the bus and drawing 0-0 last season when he is well known for that in past Champions League matches

    It's all part of the act. Don't take anything he says too seriously.

    He wants to be hated by everyone and loved at his club. He brings that "us against the world mentality" to his teams.

    I hope its an act because some of his post game interviews/comments are ridiculous.....I don't know but from afar it's hard to sympathize with his garbage and complaining when he has the clearly superior team in most league matches.....But like you said, could be an act

    Definitely a good coach though

    Also not saying you are at all, but lots of English football fans say that Chelsea has a lot of "plastic" supporters, true or false?

    I'm pretty sure it is an act.

    Definitely plenty of plastic supporters. Most big clubs have them.

    I'd say the Emirates, Old Trafford, and Stamford Bridge are probably the 3 worst atmospheres in the league.

    Our away fans make a lot of noise in most games we go to though. Typically people who will bother spending 10 hours on the road in a day are real fans. In 90% of games in England the away fans make more noise than the home fans anyway except in the 2 minutes that follow a goal by the home team.

    Yes, this is true. I've been to City away with Chelsea fans two seasons in a row now and the Chelsea fans were great. What pretty awesome being there when Chelsea took the lead then Lampard of all people equalised 10 mins later!

    It's obviously not a guarantee but usually a ticket sitting in the away stand pretty much anywhere is good fun.

    That game was a fun atmosphere yeah. Loved when both sets of fans were singing the "Steve Gerrard he slipped on his fukking arse" song lol.

    Our fans gave Lampard a very good reception but I personally didn't. I mean obviously I still have a lot of love for him, would be mad not to given all the years and great moments he gave our club, but somewhere I will always hold this departure against him and do feel betrayed by it. I would've expected this of Drogba for instance and funnily enough consequently would've felt less betrayed in that case, but really never thought Lampard would do it.
