About Michael »

I'm a football-of-all-kinds fan. I have loved Barca for many years --ever since I began watching football. I care for the Dutch national football team, and I enjoy watching the Eredivisie as well, where Feyenoord happens to be my team. While I don't follow the EPL too often, I root for Arsenal over the rest of the topflight (with this in mind, I absolutely dislike Chelsea and Man U; the Barca win over both of whom were phenomenal and emotionally effervescing).

I also enjoy watching American football, where I've been a die-hard GB Packers fan since I was born.

I find baseball boring, and I hate the Yankees (for the very same reason I have grown a healthy new hatred for Real Madrid).

    "put in a superfluous performance" did you mean superlative?

    Hiya. I have written an article that questions if Arsenal has what it takes to win the title. Have a read, if you want.
