Re: English Premier Division + European Champions League

The English premier division is my favourite league in the world, even ahead of La Liga. Although it's almost always decided by four teams (Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool) it's still a great league.

I'll be honest, the actual title race isn't what's interesting me this season, it's the F.A. cup. With all of the big boys out on their arses, the cup is anyones. I suppose if pressed I'd back Portsmouth, but in all honesty the teams still in this competition will go into the ties with a "do or die"; "nothing to lose" attitude, and that's when the best and most exciting football gets played. I'd even give West Brom a cheer, even though they're managed by Mowbray (ex-hibee :disappoin ).

This could happen here too, I hope Partick dump Rangers out of contention for the Scottish cup, then the ties will be worth watching for once.

As for the Champions League, Liverpool all the way, baby. Big Liverpool fan here, I can't disqualify them from this kind of title or setting. Even though I've lost money on them (backed them for the Premiership, they've been nothing short of ****) I'll see them through to the final.

I'd be delighted for them to beat Arsenal and Chelsea, moreso Chelsea, because Liverpool have been their jinx for two seasons.
