1)
(a) I adore La Liga and I am interested in Serie A. Well, these are the leagues I follow, cause I have my favourite clubs there. I also like English Premier League, although I don't have a chance to watch matches there.
(b) Russian one.

2) They are changing sometimes. But as for now these clubs are Getafe, Sevilla and Internazionale Milano.

3) CSKA Moscow, Juventus, Osasuna.

4) I can name practically everyone in Getafe, but I adore Casquero, Cata Diaz, David Cortes, Manu del Moral (Getafe), Davide Santon, Francesco Bolzoni (I really adore this guy, although he doesn't play a lot, but he is a good person), Zlatan Ibragimovic, Esteban Cambiasso (Inter), Jose Maria Gutierrez Hernandez (I'll always support him)... And, yeah, you know my favourite footballer. ;-)

5) There are some, I am sure, but I don't wanna think about it. :)

Thank you!! That's awesome!

1. DO YOU LIKE ALL FOOTBALL LEAGUES?

(a) Which ones are your favourites?
My favourites are La Liga and the Argentine first league. I'm also following the EPL a bit (but mainly because so many people here do and you can't sneak away from it) and the Germany leageu (because that's what I get on TV, well, highlights of it).

(b) Are there any you despise or dislike intensely?
The French league... and I don't like the Italian much either, though I do follow Italian teams in international tournaments... well, as much as I have to.

2. WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE TEAMS IN THE LEAGUES ABOVE?
Real Madrid and Boca Juniors

3. IF YOU DESPISE ANY TEAMS, PLEASE NAME THEM.
FC Barcelona, FC Sevilla. And I'm often not that fond of Getafe FC but there are so many of our canteranos, that I can't say I despise them.
In the German league I totally dislike Schalke 04 and Borussia Dortmund. I can't say anything against Bayern Munich, because my bro supports them.

4. WHO ARE YOUR FAVOURITE PLAYERS ON EACH TEAM?
Oh dear...
Real Madrid: Gonzalo Higuaín, Iker Casillas, Fernando Gago, Miguel Torres. I do like Guti, as well.
Boca Juniors: Rodrigo Palacio. :D Martin Palermo. Because they ARE Boca. lol. Pablo Mouche is a cutie. And Javi Garcia is awesome, but he's not playing much. Poor boy.

5. ARE THERE ANY PLAYERS YOU DISLIKE? WHO ARE THEY?
Boca: I don't really like Riquelme and Figueroa is weird.
Real: Robben. Kaká. Heinze.

Yes, I think that's all. :)

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Fascinating answers! Thank you so much for doing this!

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

You really did it!

Let's start:

1a: EPL for ever!, Primera División Argentina, Primera División de México, La Liga and Copa Mustang (just a bit)

1b: italian football and all italian footballers except Alessa, USA football because they don't know what football is, they are calling the SHIT they are playing there soccer, what an ugly word for a beautiful sport, brazilian football

2: Liverpool FC for ever!; River Plate and Vélez Sársfield (some others too); Cruz Azul and Chivas Guadalajara; Sevilla (Atleti and Getafe if they are not playing against Sevilla); Millonarios

3. Manshit x 2, Chelsea, West Ham; Huracan, Lanus, Colon, Argentinos, Gim la Plata; no mexican team; Barca, Real (not the players but the fucking mamagement), Racing (they are playing like shit), no colombian team

4: Liverpool - all players, maybe Dossena and Lucas not that much;
River Plate - Falcao and all others too, except the fat one, Vélez - Leandro Velazquez and Sebastián Dominguez the most and all others too,
I adore Riquelme! he seems to be the only argentine with balls!, there are some uther players I rerally like;
Cruz Azul - Joel Huiqui
Chivas - Omar Arellano and Ramón Morales, the team
There is my alltime fav goalie - Oswaldo Sanchez playing for Santos and some other players too
Millonarios - Gerardo Bedoya, because of him I'm following the team as good as I can

5: TOO many! Like I said - the italians, the manshits x2, whole Barca team, many players from EPL, some argentine players like Bataglia from Boca and the fat one from River
I could make an endless list!

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Thanks for your in-depth answers! (LOL @ your icon. It's great! Who is that?)
I knew most of the answers already!
LOL. I can't believe I got you watching the Copa Mustang! But it's awesome. I need more people getting interested in Colombia! Once they find out how good the football is and how hot the players are they would watch it! LOL. I think if Colombia got into the WC more ppl would notice them!

LOL @ endless list!!!!

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

Hahahaaaaaaa you don't know the guy on my icon? Strange! I thought you would love him too and that he is playing the harmonica makes him even hotter!



I'll watch the Colombian Copa Mustang more with the start of the new season and I hope Millonarios will play better!

Colombia played WC but already but they were not successful. Best what they archived was the Copa America win in 2001!

I remember Carlos VALDERRAMA!
They played 1998 in France - third place in group (lost against England and fucking shit Romania, won against Tunesia)
1994 in USA - fourth in group (lost against fucking shit Romania and fucking arseholes from USA, wom against Switzerland) poor Andres ESCOBAR!!!
1990 in Italy - third in group (lost against fucking Yugoslavia, tied with Germany and won against United Arab Emirates)

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

OMG! Is it Gerardo Bedoya? I still can't really tell because he is covering his face! I LOVE the banner! It's HOT!

Yeah, the Colombian team's history is very interesting! They have had their share of great players! Do you remember also the 'Scorpion King' Rene Higuita? He is still playing! A player-coach for Pereira in Colombia. He's a bad guy though, friends with Maradona. He's been in prison and has tested positive for cocaine. Quite a past!
I remember the WC 1998 but not before that! 1994 sounds like a bad year - I'm glad I forgot about that one!!! Hahahaha.

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

The candidate has 100 points!
I found the pic and OMG! I loved it from the first view!
I guess the banner will stay for a very long time on my LJ! At first I had a smaller one but I had to made a bigger one... that's love.
Colombians have some crazy players. I have heard about Higuita. I loved Valderama for his 'craziness'!
When I heard about Andres Escobar I thought that couldn't be possible. But I heard more about Colombia and there is anything possible.
We don't know much about the life in Colombia and I guess it is not that simple to live there. I always complain about my shitty life, but really it's like heaven if you see how other people have to live.
Somehow I always loved the country and I remember watching football at the WCs.
Now with i-net and all the streaming I should be a very lucky person!
Let's watch, enjoy and love the wonderful football they are playing!

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

I love that banner so much can I use it for the 4colombiafooty comm?

Oh yeah, it is easy to forget all about the colourful history of Colombia, but they do play beautiful football. On Sunday when I watched the Cali-Junior game and then watched Lanus-Velez, the difference really struck me. Both Colombians and Argentines have players that can run very fast. But the style of Colombian football is much smoother and more relaxed. In Argentina it is more wild and crazy. Both are passionate, with passionate fans, but the Colombians are still more laid-back than the Argentines. It's so very interesting.

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

You can use ALL my stuff! You make me proud *smiles and huggels*

I totally agree with your words. The Argentines are playing 'harder'
We should know more about Colombia.

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I want to add some newer banners to ALL my comms! *smooches*
I cannot wait for the final Copa Mustang game to see who wins (well, it will be two-legged) and for the new season to begin!

I went to the Millonarios site to see if they posted pics of their new kit but nothing was there since their last game! They usually have great pics of the new kit, with Bedoya one of the models! And that tall young guy with the interesting looks - Rafael Robayo.

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

I always go to their site!
But I didn't know they are posting pics of new kits. Do you where I can find some older pics with kits?

Have to google the boy!

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Yes! Here is a link to the site, and the galeria with the 'nueva camisetas' or 'new shirts' page.

http://www.millonarios.com.co/galeria_ver.php?id=24

You can click on the purple link near the top left where it says 'ver todas las galerias' to see all of them! There are some really nice, HOT pics of Bedoya. (And I like Robayo too - the tall skinny one with long, dark hair.)

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

Thanks! *huggels*

Halftime! Watching the colombian match! Junior has another guy Teófilo Gutiérrez!

Thanks for the link!

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

OMG the match! I forgot to watch! *runs*
Yes, I uploaded some pics of Teofilo for another picspam!
Thanks for telling me! *runs to watch*

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

I hope you have seen second half! It was THRILLING! Good for Juniors was the GOAL! YEAH!
They have some 'nice' players there!

Colombians are very good to watch!!!

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

I was confused! I ran to the TV, had forgotten about the Confed Cup game, then when I saw what happened I was glad I didn't watch it...looked for the Colombia game but it wasn't on! Because GOLTV was showing the Spain-USA game. Then I realized that the Colombia final (first leg) wasn't on until TODAY! But when I checked the TV listings I saw that GOLTV is going to show the Brazilian fuckers game TONIGHT and the COLOMBIAN game tomorrow night! *facepalm*
So I will find out result tonight but not be able to see the game until tomorrow! It doesn't matter what happens, Junior can come from behind like they did with Cali, and the second leg is at Barranquilla.

So what game did you see last night? Was it the Cali-Junior game?

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

Once Caldas vs Junior Barranquilla!!! I have seen it via TVU player - GOLTV!

I guess you know the result! Junior can do at home!

(you cannot imagine how I hate all the shit USA football)

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Stupid GOLTV here messing us around!!!!

Yes, Junior can do it at home! Let's hope!

OMG how could GOLTV bypass the Colombian game in order to play the same shit USA team result over and OVER and OVER!!!!! again!!!!
(I understand exactly how you feel!!!)

[aglaiya.livejournal.com]

Sometimes football is like big shit!

Colombians are better!

Very interesting answers to the meme! thank you!

Ahhhh, it's so lovely to see another fan of the Portuguese league! If only everyone could go to see Benfica at their stadium and just soak up all the atmosphere there! It truly is an experience like no other!♥

[micholover.livejournal.com]

ํ1. yes, i think so.
(a) Bundesliga, English Premiere League
(b) nope

2. FC Bayern Munich the only one :)

3. Manchester United (for now)

4. Martin Demichelis :)

5. John Terry and some other in Chelsea, C.Ronaldo and sometimes Lionel Messi.

:)

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Great! Thank you for doing this! It's going to help me when doing picspams! You gave some very interesting answers!

[txorakeriak.livejournal.com]

Oh! This looks like fun! :D

1. No. There are a couple of leagues that just don't interest me.
a) EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga.
b) I don't dislike or despise any leagues, but I find the Serie A, the Ligue 1 and the Süper Lig pretty boring.

2. Liverpool, Real Madrid, Villarreal, Athletic Bilbao, Bayern München

3. Werder Bremen, Manchester United, AC Milan, Juventus, Sevilla FC, Atlético Madrid

4. I like nearly everyone who plays for my team, so I'll just mention my absolute favourites:
LFC: Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher, Pepe Reina, Álvaro Arbeloa, Xabi Alonso, Fernando Torres, Dirk Kuyt
Real Madrid: Iker Casillas, Miguel Torres, Gonzalo Higuaín, Lassana Diarra
Villarreal: Santi Cazorla, Diego López, Gonzalo Rodríguez, Joan Capdevila, Marcos Senna
Athletic: Javi Martínez, Fernando Llorente, Gorka Iraizoz, Aitor Ocio
Bayern: Martín Demichelis, Philipp Lahm, Miroslav Klose, José Ernesto Sosa

5. I don't care much for Pepe, Heinze, Robben and Lell, but that's mostly because they keep making mistakes that lead to goals. If they stopped that, I wouldn't mind them so much. I don't like van Bommel because he's not that good a footballer and thinks it's a good idea to compensate that with excessive fouling. He's completely unsuitable for captaincy and I wish Bayern would get rid of him.

I think I'm going to steal this meme for my LJ! It's very interesting indeed! :D

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this idea just came to me, although I've wanted to do it so I can filter certain teams and players for my picspams! I am simply running out of space to constantly be uploading so many pics all the time! I am trying to be more selective, and this is one way of doing it!

Great choices! I knew about most of them anyway, if not all. LOL.

Yeah, steal the meme! It might be good for you icon-makers to know which ones your flist would be more interested in! One question I could have added if I'd thought of it last night is: "Who Is Your Favourite OTP?"

[lhuneldaiel.livejournal.com]

1. DO YOU LIKE ALL FOOTBALL LEAGUES?
(a) Which ones are your favourites?
(b) Are there any you despise or dislike intensely?
I have my favourite leagues that of course interest me more than others.
a)Primera Division, Eredivisie, Argentina Primera Division, EPL, Serie A.
b)I'm not that interested in the Bundesliga or Lique 1, but its not a dislike.

2. WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE TEAMS IN THE LEAGUES ABOVE?
Ajax, Real Madrid, Boca Juniors, Arsenal, AC Milan.

3. IF YOU DESPISE ANY TEAMS, PLEASE NAME THEM.
PSV, Barcelona, Manchester United.

4. WHO ARE YOUR FAVOURITE PLAYERS ON EACH TEAM?
AJAX: Luis Suarez, Darío Cvitanich, Gregory van der Wiel, Kenneth Vermeer.
Real Madrid: Fernando Gago, Sergio Ramos, Iker Casillas, Mahamadou Diarra, Miguel Torres, Wesley Sneijder, Klaas Jan Huntelaar, Gonzalo Higuaín.
Boca Juniors: Rodrigo Palacio, Javier García, Martin Palermo, Pablo Mouche, Facundo Roncaglia.
Arsenal: Cesc Fàbregas, Robin van Persie, Gael Clichy, Bacary Sagna.
AC Milan: Paolo Maldini *weeps* Clarence Seedorf

5. ARE THERE ANY PLAYERS YOU DISLIKE? WHO ARE THEY?
CRon annoys me. I dislike most ManU players. And the freckled pasty blonde you know who ;-)

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Oh, I like your picks!

LMFAO @ the very last comment!!!! *sniggers* *snorts*

[lady--croft.livejournal.com]

1. I love La Liga and Serie A. I keep an eye on EPL but don't watch it religiously. I can't say as I watch too much of the other leagues but there is no league I dislike.

2. Real Madrid and Juventus are my favourites. Inter would probably be third choice.

3. I don't really despise any team...okay, ya, I do - Barca. But it is a sort of love/hate relationship. I need a team to loathe and they just happen to be the mortal enemies of Real Madrid so who better?

4. On Real: Higuain and Gago; on Juve: Amauri; on Inter: Ibra and Jose Mourinho (do coaches count?)

5. C-Ron: again it is a love/hate relationship. When I need someone to mock, he just happens to come along and do something completely annoying or ridiculous. I can't help but hate him. We'll see how it goes now that he is on Real.

Thanks for the meme!

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your answers! It's interesting that some of us from this part of the world are not as 'militant', for want of a better word, as some of those who are more closely connected with their teams (and leagues) and feel much more a sense of the rivalry that exists between certain of those! Thus, like you, I don't hate any other leagues, although I can't say I am fond of the Brazilian NT or Barcelona FC either!

Yes, coaches count! For instance, I should hate Lanus of Argentina but I can't NOT love their coach, Luis Zubeldia!

Awwww...yeah, C-Ron! He is SO annoying, but that could be the fault of the press! His antics on and off the pitch are sometimes laughable, but then I feel that I LOVE to make fun of him, therefore I probably love something about him! I have this odd feeling that once he is playing for Madrid I am gonna jump the fence and become a big fan!

You're welcome!
