Wenn denken Sie dass Tottenham sind gut, fur dich glaube ich das es ist gut, weil einen Spieler von Deutschland ver heisst Jurgen Klinsmann hat zweimal fur Spurs gespielt.

Aber hasse ich Spurs - warum? Ich weiss nicht.

Wilkommen nach der Premiership mein Freund.

Tevez will most likely be leaving West Ham in the summer.

At the end of the day, you're always going to find someone who dislikes another club for some obscure or valid reason.

Myself, for example:

I hate Southampton, Spurs, and the Big Four. I also dislike Bolton and Burnley.

Now then, I hate Southampton because Blackburn were relegated in 1999. Southampton stayed up at our expense.

Spurs - I hate Spurs because one time I went ot White Hart Lane with my father, who supports Leeds (ha ha!). We had seats for the Spurs end, and we both had to pretend to be Spurs fans. More to the point, when Spurs lost 2-1 to Leeds, we had to pretend to be upset all the way back to Seven Sisters (tube station). I felt sick pretending to be a cockney, hence my hatred for Spurs. Also, some of the people I knew in school and college supported Spurs and they were pricks - I made a generalisation, but on the whole, I still feel right.

The Big Four - I sneer at other clubs' success, but more so at their holier-than-thou attitudes. Jealousy is a big factor too, if I'm honest.

Bolton - Blackburn is close to Bolton, and the two teams dislike each other. I also disliked their style of play under Big Sam (long ball). Some people say, "Well now, Chelsea play exaclty the same way," and to that I reply, "I don't like Chelsea either."

Burnley - Apparently, if you're a Blackburn fan, you must hate Burnley, so I do, I guess. I certainly wouldn't go to Burnley, but that's not because I'm a Rovers fan, but more likely that Burnley is a hellish quagmire, full to the brim with the scum of the Earth.

Let's take a look at your possible West Ham fandom:

- Old club. A lot of history.
- Still in the Premiership, and probably won't go down in the next few seasons.
- Bobby Moore (England's captain in the World Cup in '66) and Geoff Hurst (hat-trick scorer in the '66 final, though you might dispute that!) played for West Ham.
- Fatty Frank Lampard, Jermain "The Enemy" Defoe, Joke Ole, Mike L Carrick and Rio De JaFerdinand all came from West Ham's youth academy, so there's a useful asset there.
- If you want to visit the club, it's a couple of tube rides from Thiefrow Airport, and you don't need to pass by Burnley.

West Ham is a decent club, but at the end of the say the choice is yours.

Choose Blackburn.

what do you guys think
1. West Ham good in the recent games, but not at the start of this season, i think next season they will not as good as their current performance

2. Tottenham too, they didn't play consistently, too bad. But everyone must admit, they have so many star players.

Myself is commited to Arsenal since 2001/02, when they became Premier League champions. The best show in the world is Arsenal 2003/04(when they unbeatable in 38 matches !!!), they played short passes very2 well, very2 quick, and very different from other clubs. Too bad now Pires is out from the team, and Henry is ruled out because of his injury. Hope for the best next season...

Plus they are cheats who should've had a ten point deduction and been relegated.

Choose Blackburn.

Es gibt nur einen Mannschaft in London...das ist Arsenal. Auch haben wir Jens Lehmann.

Sie sollen Arsenal unterstuetzen.

Koeln ist schoen...ich besuchte deine Stadt letzte Sommer waehrend den WM.

Jens Lehmann is the reason The Bum lost to The Loaner in the Champo Final of 2006. Ich finde dass er ist scheisse - entshuldigung. David Seaman war besser als ich, nein?

Deutschland gegen Argentinien...muss ich mehr sagen?

Das war fantastisch.

If that's true, then good riddance. He helped ruin Arsenal's chance of European glory, and he has hardly endeared himself to the Premiership faithful. I just don't get why he hasn't gone already. Honestly, what has kept him at Arsenal this long? Does he have photos of Wenger raping dogs, or something?

Oh please! If it wasn't for Jens, the gooners wouldn't have been in the CL final in the first place. He was the one who saved the last minute penalty against Villareal that ensured they went to the finals. He also performed well in the premiership and was one of the reasons Arsenal came 4th. They would probably have ended up 6th if it wasn't for him, Kolo, TH14 and Cesc. I honestly think last season he was the best keeper in the world for his club and country.

Plus the decison to send him off was a bit too harsh from the Ref.

Granted the referee was a fool or had been bribed (I put nothing past UEFA), but being good at saving penalties, and being a worthy goalkeeper are two completely different things. To me, Lehmann is a liability - I knew he was before the Paris final in 2006, and he hasn't done anything to prove me wrong - starting fights in almost every game is not what I watch football for.

JL tears your heart out. He'll make some great saves to keep us in it but then he'll do something stupid to cost us a goal. Bank on it, it happens nearly every game. He also flops too much for my tastes. Good keeper but a total head case.

Yeah, but you have to admit the sissy fight/flop fest between him and Drogba this year was some of the funniest television I've seen in a long time. :D
