Default Re: Anyone else rooting against ALL European team?

[ QUOTE ]
you can give me your opinion on what you consider to be european football, it doesn't change the fact that Israel and Turkey are as european as England or Germany in terms of football. Their teams play in european competitions, they qualify through UEFA.

100% true. All their top club teams play in the UEFA cup or the Champions League, their international players play in the European Championships, they are all European footballers.

It's true Israel are only there because there would be too much trouble if they had to play against other Middle Eastern countries, but that doesn't stop them being European. The "Football World" counts for a lot more than you would think.
