Hello buddies, i have a question to consult with you.
for example, my favorite footballer is David Beckham. and because of the existence of him, i fell in love with Manchester United, but now David left for USA, but now i am still the fan of Man Utd. so buddies, if the footballer you like left the club, will you still support the club that the footballer previously served?

Well,I must admit that I don't love Man Utd any more just because David is not there!
Actually,the Man Utd is quite a good football team,but I just cannot persuade myself spending hours watching the game.And now,I barely watch football match since all my favorite footballers have retied or went to the US or other places...
So sad about that.

Liking of a club shouldn't come from a single player.. It should be something related to the club.. the skill, the courage. The love of a club shouldn't change with its players.. It should be constant.. If you love a club.. be with it forever..

It depends a lot on how that club sees football, on how the players perform and on the club's history.
I am a Manchester United fan too, but I care for the football they play and for the club's history more than for a certain player.
They are indeed formidable players that I watch with pleasure, even if they play for clubs I don't support, but that doesn't make me cheer for the club (For example I have the deepest respect for Raul, even if I support FC Barcelona). I mean to say that you can be a player's fan even if you don't cheer for the club he's playing for.

My favorite player is Miroslav Klose. He plays for Bayern Munich. He was with Werder Bremen before that. I was a fan of Bayern long before Miro arrived. So, if he left, I would still be a fan of Bayern. I would most likely still follow him, but not exclusively.

When I originally started to support Liverpool it was because of the team rather than individual players.
But as good playres have left I have continued to look to see how they have been doing at new clubs. Players like Fowler, Sissoko, Owen, McManaman over the years have all left but I have kept an eye on their new teams to see that they are doing well. This of course only applies to good players and those that leave on good terms with the club
