On the contrary.. If you look all over the world, everyone loves Manchester United. In England, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool fans hate Manchester United because they have been so successful in the past. Just like Chelsea is hated now.

As a football fan who doesnt support chelsea or man u , i think people slag drogba off either because he looks a bit ungainly, or basically coz they are jealous. Yes hes doesnt move like a traditional kinda stiker but he is a class player. Anyone slaggin him coz he is black should just grow up. He is a footballer not a terrorist. Personally i dont think he is a good all round as rooney is ( im not a man u fan ) rooney has the potentional to be the best player the country has ever seen but for me the best player in the world at the moment is Mr vavavoom , Thierry henry, sorry chelsea fans but nobody has the composure, skill, vision and just all round genius of thierry.

Manchester? You must be refering to City. They won the title back in 1968. \n\nOr are you one of those glory-seeking twats that live half-way round the globe, and claim to support United?

The problem is not that Americans butcher soccer (they are ranked 5th in the world and the MLS is not a joke anymore). The problem lies in the fact that Americans HAVE butchered the real meaning of sport. Look at the professional leagues in the States for Baseball, American Football, Basketball, etc. They are plagued with player strikes, horrible and inconsistent officiating, and horrid marketing schemes. It's not about tradition, winning, or entertainment. It's about making money. The Brits want eternal glory for thier team. The Russians are not nearly as likely to undermine that, in fact they are as passionate about sport as the Brits are with football. The British fans are upset and they should be. They believe Americans don't know the first thing about football as it's played over there, and they don't. The game is different, the players are different, and most importantly the FANS are different. I BLEED Arsenal Red, I don't simply root for them. There's also the way he's threatened the existence of Manchester United by incurring debt, using the team to secure £265 million, or $490 million, of loans as part of his £790 million takeover price. The man also hates sports. He was once seen rooting for the opposing team when he attended, which is a rare occurance, a game of his NFL team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He knows nothing of pride, traditions, and the importance of soccer. That's why the Brits are pissed, not simply because he's a Yankee.

Manchester United is by far the best club in the English game.  When Liverpool, Arsenal or Chelsea lose arguably the greatest team ever assembled (1957-58 team), and within 5 years start crushing everyone again, then those jokes of teams can speak in the prescence of a Red Devil.  The 1958 Munich disaster 'stole' what would've been the start of a dynasty.Liverpool at least has the kind of history that Manchester United has, where for the players its pride at stake, and a privilege to pull on the red shirt.  While Arsenal is just a bunch of foreigners (not that there's anything wrong with that, its just that while Arsenal are filled with the French, and Chelsea are filled with whoever likes money), Manchester United builds players from the youth level.  They have local lads in the squad, and that's something that they as a club, have always believed in.  I know that this next little topic was on another board, but Chelsea will win the Champions League within the next 3-5 years.  Roman will not give up, and will keep pumping his green machine until he gets the European Cup.  Then he's likely to sell the team, so Chelsea fans can remember what it was like to play in the UEFA Cup through most of the 90's, when Manchester United was winning everything.  That's the loyalty that surrounds other clubs, Abramovich will sell the club, because he's not loyal, something that has clearly rubbed off on him since buying the blues.  8 Premiership titles in 14 years, a handful of FA cups, a couple of League Cups, a few Charity Shields, mixed with a Inter-Continental Cup, and the glory of the European Cup, culminating in the almighty domestic treble?  Who the hell is better than Manchester United anyway?\n\n*1999* - The Greatest Year of our lives - Eat your hearts out Europe! - And Giggsy, with the greatest ever goal scored in the English game...no doubt.\n\nWhen football fans think of the English game, and contemplate on who were the greatest players ever, no doubt that most will have worn a wee Red Devil over their heart.

It's kind of like baseball in America.  Most everyone hates the New York Yankees even though they're the most decorated team in baseball history.  (Obviously they do have fans, but many are considered bandwagon jumpers and many don't acutally live in NYC) We just can't stand the way they are able to "steal" players who will "sell out" for the very large amounts of money that the Yankees can offer and no other team can match.  I'd say it's the same with Man U at least.  I don't know about Liverpool or Arsenal, but seeing as I've heard of both of them, and I'm neither English nor a faithful follower of the Premier League or Soccer in general, it must be the same thing.

In short... they are insanely jealous of our footballing skills. Their team is poo and ours is not.  It's all nonsense and banter. Say for example the swedish were invading our shores what would the Scottish do?... They'd get their act together and come and batter anyone trying to invade England... They love us really & most of us these days have a relation from one of our neighbouring nations.. \n\nIts all crap and to be honest, you should hold your head up and high fly your St George Cross with pride. Make them even more envious.. muhahahaha

Am and always will be.\n\nManchester United has everything: drama, controversy, action, scandal, excitement, talent, blood, grit, guts, hope, and most of all, FOOTBALL. They REPRESENT football around the world.\n\nNo other football club around the world is as fascinating and blood-pumping as Man Utd, whether you look at the bad or good side.

This kind of question really pisses me off, apparently it's only England fans that fight and cause trouble is it? Totally blinkered. The so called "ultras" of Italy and Holland have been making plans for violence for ages, as have the Turkish.\nThe Germans also have a hardcore of hooligans who will be active at home and the Polish hooligans have actually been quoted that they are going to target England fans at every opportunity.

Beckham is the most overrated player in football. Rio is piss poor.Crouch is the sorriest excuse for a football player i have ever seen,rooney is a thug,Owen is past it,Lennon is an unknown,the coles are average,Robinson is ok,Carragher isnt england class,gerrard,lampard,terry and rooney are the only players who i rate.

Man Utd look as if they have the bit between their teeth this season. They are playing very well and have very important players hitting form such as Rooney, Ronaldo and Scholes. Above all Giggs is playing out of his skin. Now they have their noses in front they will be hard to overtake. Obviously the games between Man Utd and Chelsea will be crucial but I think United will get something out of these games. At least it makes for a more interesting season.

Wenger is an arrogant twat. He is the reason people dislike Arsenal, despite the good football they are capable of.\n\nI'd take George Graham's boring football over Wenger's any day.
