Selecting a team to win the Championship league

I have been asked once around by my friends who I think would win in the next UEFA Champions league and I boldly told them that I prefer Real Madrid as who would deny that Raul and Ronaldo are some of the greatest around today? But funny thing was that I was an English and I should be in fact rooting for teams from the English Premier league rather than selecting a Spanish team in the very end. But I told them football is a game and I am free to choose anyone I want, and in order not to upset them, I simply just went online as I prefer doing Football picks in here as at least, nobody will tell me I am English or no to choose my favored team. And in the site called www.hunchers.com, I am free to choose any league and any team I want to predict in and you can say I still somehow play on the premier league too, but it just so happens I also love a good team outside of England. So with that said, I will retain my fanship to the Real Madrid team but of course, if in the championship league they falter and an English team is there in the finals, then I would certainly still cheer for them as I am still English anyways and football is a game and anything and any team can win given that luck is on their side.
