NBC Sports has released their first video to promote its coverage of the Premier League. The 30-second spot gets the message across that NBC Sports will be broadcasting every game live — either on their TV networks or via the free app NBC Sports Live Extra. To me, the best part of the video is […]

In an article that is near and dear to my heart, The Guardian's David Conn has written a follow-up piece to an article he wrote five years ago about the status of the derelict houses that form a "ghost town" next to Liverpool's Anfield Stadium. On a visit to Liverpool 7 years ago, I spent a morning walking […]

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. Sunderland played absolutely dreadfully in the first half, went down a goal, got a player sent off and failed to spark any real emotion from the crowd. Then the tide turned in the second half where Stoke City showed why they still haven't […]

A photograph of Liverpool's third shirt for the 2013-14 season has been leaked on the Internet. A few months ago, we didn't publish a photograph of Liverpool's rumored third shirt for the 2013-14 season because, after seeing the jersey, we thought it was a joke. However, a new video has been found that shows Liverpool […]

For the second week in a row, Monday features a battle to avoid relegation. Last Monday, it was the 6-1 thrashing by Aston Villa against Sunderland. Today, it's Sunderland at home against Stoke City. A win for Stoke and they'll be safe in knowing that they'll be in the Premier League next season. A win […]

If Gus Johnson and FOX Sports have paid any attention at all to the commentary on Gus’s play-by-play match calling on Twitter and EPL Talk, they should be deeply concerned. From initial outbursts of outrage, much of the commentary has shifted to mockery and humor. This is not a good sign. It is one thing […]

As a Fulham supporter, I've experienced several up and down seasons, but the performance on Saturday against Reading at Craven Cottage was disgraceful. Fulham have reached forty points, and should be safe from relegation, but the door is still open, and the club unfortunately did not close it in their 4-2 loss to Reading. As the season has two more matches […]

With Wigan Athletic and Aston Villa winning over the weekend, there are now an incredible eight teams who are still in danger of being relegated as the 18th place team in the league this season. And there are only 2-3 matches remaining this season. Forty points this season may not be enough to guarantee safety. […]

As much good work as MLS Commissioner Don Garber has done for MLS in the United States, he occasionally makes American soccer fans scratch their collective heads, like with his recent comment that there’s way too much soccer on television. Another confounding example in recent months is his effort to land a second MLS team […]

Spanish media and public reported this morning that Jose Mourinho was spotted in an Ikea store spending approximately £200 on boxes and packing tape, presumably in preparation for his big move from Madrid back to London this summer. Come on Chelsea and Real Madrid, let's get this whole thing over and done with so it […]

Here are tonight's Premier League news headlines: Liverpool to move for Brazilian defender Douglas to replace Jamie Carragher — The Mail David Luiz 'rolled about like a dying swan', says Sir Alex Ferguson — The Telegraph We've taken foot off the pedal, there's no edge, says Sir Alex Ferguson — The Independent Sir Alex Ferguson blasts David […]

Congratulations to Juventus and Ajax for clinching the Serie A and Eredivisie titles respectively. Juventus beat Palermo 1-0 for their second consecutive Serie A title. The victory gives the Turin side their 29th Serie A title in the club's history. However, Juve fans unfurled a banner after the game that had the number 31 painted […]

Today's two matches in the Premier League weren't the most entertaining games, but both of the results have big consequences for most of the teams involved. Every game matters, and while there was no winner in the Merseyside derby, you would have to give the edge to Everton for securing a point to move them […]

In the last few minutes of Manchester United's game against Chelsea today, Chelsea defender David Luiz got into a tussle with Manchester United right back Rafael da Silva. The end result was Da Silva whacking out at Luiz's legs, which sent the Chelsea player to the ground, clutching his knees. While Da Silva thoroughly deserved […]

Fergie against Rafa. North versus South. Glazers against Abramovich. Gus Johnson and Ian Wright against the soccer world. There are plenty of rivalries on the line today as Manchester United take on Chelsea at Old Trafford in a match that means much more for Chelsea than it does for United, but don't let that take […]
