The Final Team Pick list

Here it is. These are the teams that I'll be following this soccer season.
  • Argentina - Racing Club, River Plate
  • Bundesliga - Bayern Munich, Hannover 96
  • English Championship - Crystal Palace, Leeds
  • English Premiership - Arsenal, Everton, Reading
  • Holland - Ajax Amsterdam, PSV Eindhoven
  • Italian Seria A - Palermo, Roma
  • La Liga - Atletico Madrid, Villareal
  • Mexico - Guadalajara, America
  • MLS - Chicago Fire, Chivas USA
  • Portugal - Benfica, FC Porto
  • Scottish Premier League - Celtic, Hearts
Notes: I wanted 2 teams for each group just because I'm knew to this, but I couldn't narrow down the Premiership to 2. I just couldn't choose between Cesc and Bobby! Crystal Palace and Leeds won on Saturday. Hearts just beat Celtic 2-1 today, which was deserved especially after one of their goals was called offsides even though the guy was clearly not. Guadalajara fielded their 2nd-string team which probably would have been killed more than 1-0 against Toluca if it wasn't for the goalkeeper. I hope their 1st team (playing a friendly against Barcelona) is a lot better. MLS All-Stars won their friendly 1-0 against Chelsea. Chelsea just looked tired, dead, and not sharp. They'll probably be fine once the season starts. And also, Michael Ballack was tons better than Frank Lampard.
