Where do you live? ESPN shows La Liga and EPL now and there is Fox Soccer and Gol TV that shows tons of club games. I can't wait until the club season starts in August.Originally Posted by JOE CAMEL SMOOTH

I'll agree that the World Cup is the bigger and more legendary event, but in terms of quality: knockout stage of the Champions League > World Cup The knockout stage of the World Cup can offer some great clashes as well and some games of very high quality, but as far as I can count, only 5 games where soccer giants played against each other occurred in this World Cup's knockout stage and maybe a couple of more in the group stage. There is way more quality in the Champions League, not to mention the fact that the knockout stage minus the final has 2 games for every time two teams meet. World Cup is great, but there sure are some boring and low quality games you have to sit through such as the clash of the juggernauts that was Slovenia Vs Algeria and Slovakia Vs New Zealand.
I guess you could say that but for me the wc is infinitely better for a few reasonsThe biggest is the fact that I'm a huge Spain fan but I don't really have a team to root for when it comes to club soccer....closest would be Barcelona I guess since they have the largest # of Spanish national team players but being a fan of guys like Ramos and Casillas on Real makes that kinda ehh. They don't really televise club soccer regular season matches on tv here so I've never really been able to get into it. Plus it is something specal to see people play for their countries IMO
