Well I’m not only a Prem fan. I regularly watch Serie A and the Bundesliga too, and watched La Liga before all the scandals in Spanish football in the past several months left too much of a sour taste in my mouth. So I root for Liverpool first and foremost and want them to win, but if they go out I still like Napoli, Monchengladbach (not in Europe, but still), and Atletico Madrid. And other teams to a lesser extent, like Fiorentina and Union Berlin. It’s all a matter of degree. The only other Premier League team I really follow much is Palace and they’re never in Europe so it doesn’t matter there.

But no, I don’t just root for people of any one league, and no I don’t root for rivals.

I don’t care for them at all. While it can occasionally be interesting, fundamentally I dislike international football. The only thing the break is good for, for me, is it gives me a chance to watch replays of games I missed on streaming that I want to see. But I’d rather there just be no breaks and have the players need to play fewer games and in a less congested schedule.
