  1. City played the most games last season, obviously they’re the most watched team based on the metrics in this article.

    Also Americans like teams that win, not a surprise that they all like the most successful team right now. Not sure a whole article was needed for this.

  2. Winning?

    I mean seriously. I moved to the US mid-2000s and I remember how every soccer fans were either Man U or Arsenal fans. Chelsea was barely noticeable. Non-PL teams had almost no American -born fans.

    Winning makes a difference. I started to follow City no kidding the day it was bought. I had no EPL home and I felt that I could follow a team that might be really good. God I was lucky. Thank goodness we got Pep

  3. Americans are glory hunters. If we fell off they’d jump on the next team, it is what it is

  4. If I was to support a team and it want local, I’d choose one that is likeable players and are successful. Why would I choose a shit team with papers that are assholes?

  5. By being the dominant team when football was growing most in USA.
