The Turkish Süper Lig. It's really exciting football at times. It has a lot of stars from the rest of Europe in it. The fans are really into it in the stadiums. Rarely a quiet stadium.
Here are two top teams. I mean, it's not all like this all the time:

I'll be seeing Cristiano in the Champions League since I get that along with the Europa. The thing is, he's probably not getting the service he had with Real. Juve has established stars there already and they probably are less apt to answer the "Feed me! Feed me" calls every time. Still, I expect him to start scoring soon. He was goalless in several of his early games with Madrid last season.
