Barcelona's disappointing loss to Real Madrid was a result of a number of factors which went against the Catalans.

Each of the final three matches of this Premier League weekend are highly anticipated. The early kick-off sees Manchester United take on Everton at home at 7:30am ET/12:30pm BST. It's Man United's chance to go eight points ahead at the top of the Premier League table and put added pressure on Manchester City, who plays […]

I have a soft spot for humorous soccer commercials. There are far too few of them on US television (most of the US ones are far too serious). But here are two new ones from Europe. One is pretty funny. The other one is okay. In the Mars commercial, Robin van Persie, Glen Johnson, Theo […]

I should be giddy with delight about FOX's plans for Premier League Survival Sunday, but I'm nervous. And here's why. After Thursday's wonderful news that FOX Sports Media Group and ESPN will team together to show all ten Premier League games live on the last day of the season, I did what many of you […]

Welcome back to another edition of the EPL Talk Mailbag. Before we get into the questions, I celebrated my birthday yesterday and after all the dinners with family and such was done, the best present I got by far was from FOX Sports.
