Any league/competition City is in...so EPL, Champs League, Europa

Try to keep up on the Bundesliga and Ligue 1 as much as I can. I like the French league. Also try to pay some attention to the Championship because the race to get into the top flight is always fun.

England and Germany are my primary two. I typically catch at least 1 EPL and 1 Bundesliga match per weekend, and then get the rest via MOTD and ESPN's Bundesliga clip show. Enjoy the Champo, as those are typically the only matches I can afford to attend when in England, but will usually limit myself to a scan of The Football League show to get caught up on the table and the big games

Spain would be next, though since the games are typically late afternoon it either has to be a big game or a lazy day for me to tune in. Usually just watch Revista to get my highlights.

I stay up to date on most of the remaining big Euro leagues (France and Italy), while also dabbling in Holland and Russian soccer where I can. If there is an interesting soccer story, I'll read it. GOL also plays Mexican and S American soccer on the weekends, so I will put it in. Outside of Santos (Neymar + Ganso) and a few others, I couldn't tell you who is leading the league or at what stage of their various comps they are in

Kind of a meh week all around the world.

PSG took the biggest shit losing to Stadde 2-1 even tho having a 2 man advantage.

Every big Italian drew, Juve's draw was scoreless at that.

Dortmund won, Bayern drew. Just all around........meh

I like it, loads of playoff scenarios.

sounds pretty cool to me.

the splitting the leagues just after midseason from 12/12 to 8/8/8 is a rather interesting concept.
