spanish football is amazing, they always have high scoring match, you just don't really see any 0-0 finishes. as if the whole league doesn't know what defending is!

la liga is fun to watch but i read on soccernet that the bundesliga was the most watched league last season is that true?

Liverpool are doing well but right now doesn't count for anything, the premier league actually starts after Christmas break.

bundesliga was prolly the most watched attendance wise, like how many people buy tickets.

and liverpool has had two problems in their previous seasons. 1: they've sucked in the beginning, 2: they never beat the best teams
so far they've had a great beginning, and they've beat united and chelsea.. chelsea has still been more impressive overall this season I think, and I still think they're the biggest favourite for the league championship, but liverpool looks strong as hell.

game was good but made me sad
go down 2, get a break with the redcard, goes up 4-2 and then precedes to play lazy in last 10 minutes.

p.s. Villarreal, use Jozy Altidore more or loan him plz.

The most popular international soccer forum is http://www.xtratime.org/forum/ . Bigsoccer is probably 2nd but it's mostly full of americans and doesn't have team forums.
There was once a dream that was Esports. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... Now is the time to make that dream a reality!

Really? BigSoccer seems on par with activity in terms of number of topics/posts.

True, it's much more American Centric but they do have full team forums; at least for the EPL and MLS(yes, some people do watch ).

Anyway, like most Americans I used to just casually watch (World Cup/Euro Cup/Champions League) but recently I've gotten more into it from a friend.

Anyone know of any good beginner books in terms of player positions/formations/tactics? Is there such a thing? Google is failing me.

You gotta support your own league no matter how bad it is currently or it'll never get anywhere
Plus, not like I'm going drop what I'm doing for a day to fly to London to watch an Arsenal game. On second thought...

it's really hard to follow soccer in the us without fox sports world or espn latino whatever, if you don't have at least one of those channels you get, one champions league game every two weeks and if your local fsn network feels like it, a re-run of a manchester united or arsenal game from two weeks ago. However if you have one of those two channels you get like eeeeeeevery game from every league worldwide constantly on except for the english premier league. I'm not sure what channel broadcasts epl games now but I believe you have to order a special package which is quite costly.

I don't dislike the msl, they are good players, but I just have no interest in it whatsoever, especially the commentators who try to announce it like an american football game, being all brute and stuff, it immediately turns me off, they don't understand football/soccer is a game of class.

Altidore doesn't fit in Villarreal right now. Too young and doesn't know how to use his head yet. They have enough forwards as it is. They should loan him to competitive second division team for 1 year at least and then get him back a see what he can do.

O, I know. Just like when he was in NY, he wanders around the pitch without any purpose. Like most Americans, his off the ball movement sucks major ass

Still the most promising American I can think of though, with Rossi choosing Italy and all. Funny how they're on the same team.
