    Most dis-liked teams in prem?

    in Other Football

    Posted · Edited by tommo

    1. Man United  97% (growing up with a class full of their gloryhunters (edit: in Lichfield!) in the mid to late 90s is something I just can't shake. So much so that I would like Liverpool to take a 20th league title just to spite them and become unquestionably the most successful English club (which they kind of already are apart from league titles) or even Man City to dope their way past them with another decade of utter dominance.)

    2. Chelsea 1% 

    =. Man City  1%

    4. Liverpool  0.5%

    5. West Ham  0.2%

    6. Newcastle  0.1%

    =. Tottenham   0.1%

    8. Arsenal  0.5%

    =. Smaller London clubs that have usurped well-supported provincial clubs because of the capital effect. 0.5%

    I would probably have Leeds and Birmingham at 0.1%, but they don't fit the criteria.

     

    Emiliano Buendía

    I'm worried about Buendia - I can sort of see there's a serious player in there. There were glimmers against Wolves and it was a decent finish against Brentford.

    He doesn't have the benefit in my eyes of having watched him previously that much. Because I more or less only watch Villa I can only compare him to two players so far: Jota and Carles Gil, due to their high skill set but low physical stature. Jota had some ability but no pace or physical presence, and who since Villa has disappeared from the sport. Buendia has a £40m price tag and he is in Jota's ball park currently for me. Gil on the other hand, came from nowhere, more or less every touch was gold for Villa, and has since disappeared (at least from Europe). Buendia barely looks half the player of Gil.

    I hope things work out for Emi, and they probably will in some way. I made the Jota comparison with my dad and said he didn't look fit to lace Voldemort's boots after the first few games and checked myself immediately, but today vs Arsenal... woah, not too far off.
