My Formal Rather Belated Introduction!!!
in [World Football]

From: The Scrutineer on 6 Apr 2010 08:29 Sorry for wasting a thread, but I'm Daniel, born and bred Australian, with European heritage!!! 22 years old, currently a student, and a real passionate football fan, which I can easily say is by far the most interesting most loved thing in life for me (outside of the way a female is put together). As some of you may know by now , yes I am an Arsenal fan, and generally speaking have an interest in global football issues/leagues as we don't have the strongest football locally, that though hopefully changing one day, and maybe the best come here to play in a World Cup one day, (Which we can be ready for at any time!!!) I am relatively young compared to what I think some of you may be aged :), but it's refreshing to read all contributors comments, and value each of your opinions very highly!!! I know I can't always be right, but when I am, I'm generally modest about it, and when wrong, accept being so and value the correction highly. Hopefully it's not asking a lot, but I would like to know, if someone replies, a brief introduction about yourself, nationality, age, favourite team, and maybe even your favourite player ever!!! Hell even a World Cup tip!!! Nice to indulge in football chat with you all, and hopefully for a long time to come!!!

Well, Daniel, it's nice to chat with you too. My handle is my real name, and I'm born and bred here in Porto Alegre, Brazil. I'm an Internacional fan and also have a favorite club in several countries. I'm 31, married and have two little children and my favorite former player is Paulo Roberto Falcão (favorite, the best was obviously Pelé) and of the current crop, whoever is playing for Internacional. :-) Tchau!

I am a bit of a nomad/wanderlust and have lived at different times in Asia, Europe and now North America. My favourite team is Manchester United. I love football, and I try and go to games wherever I am in the world (and collect jerseys). This means I have local club 'favourites' from many countries, but when push comes to shove, I only really care about United. Favourite players from the past are Maradona and van Basten. As far as current players go, different players catch my eye at different times (Milla, Hagi, Baggio, Romario) and I consider myself lucky to have seen all of them play. Carlos Tevez comes closest among current players. Come summer, I'll be supporting Argentina, <daylight>, Netherlands, <daylight>, the Minnows. Sid

It's good to have another United fan on the NG.

Now, if I may, just how will Sandro cope in the EPL? Some really big money involved in his transfer to the bad half of North London :) so the pressure will be on, and can he compete with the established duo of Palacios and Huddlestone? |
