Why is Manchester United deeply loved or deeply hated?

[Rijinho]

I personal am a big man united fan and i know that other fans of man utd are also deeply in love with it.































But then people who are not supporters of man utd hate them with a burning passion, only because their only the team they are today because of money, never see any star players come out of barcalona or real madrid soccer schools, it sure is easy to just buy the top players.































wether the team has talent is not a mater of question because we know man utd has loads of talent.































then some people will throw in that their cheaters, and say that cristiano ronaldo dives, funny that those people are fans of chelsea were i think drogba is alot worse or maybe a fan of arsenal, anybody see that sly handball by van persie last season.































the only teams in this world i dont like are real madrid and barcalona.

Simple. They are one of the most (if not THE most) famous football clubs in the world, and for several years, they have been very successful.































When you are all of these things, hatred by fans of other teams just comes with the territory.

Whao let me say I am quite surprised that you say you hate BARCA to be precise that is my only favourite team and coincidentaly my worst team has to be your team and that is MAN U but atleast I have some reasons why I hate Man U first is they think they are the only Champions,they don't accept when they lose,they think they have the best players but they are wrong.Barca is the team.

like all of the 'big clubs', man utd is either deeply loved (by the real fans) or deeply hated (by opposing fans). it's just like with chelsea, arsenal and liverpool.































who cares though? MAN UTD RULE!































Chelsea Shrimper, I think people could say the same for Chelsea fans... so watch out with what you say there. All the Man Utd fans I know aren't like that, so maybe your generalization is wrong. I understand you'll bad mouth us because you're a Chelsea lover but seriously? Show some respect.

When ur good, people either love you or hate you. It doesnt just happen in football. Its the same as you saying that u dislike real and FCB.















...and for Ronaldo diving, if its obvious, there are penalties.
