If you had just walked into the room and didn't know the score of today's game between Aston Villa and Liverpool and saw the way Peter Crouch wheeled off to the corner after scoring an 88th minute goal, you'd probably think that he just won the Premier League for the Reds. In reality, the 6'7" […]

As I said before in my previous post about the 2008 African Cup of Nations, I'm very disappointed that I'm not going to be able to watch the games on TV. I'm going to try and do my best to keep with this tournament as best I can, but that's not nearly the same as actually […]

I just want to send some good thoughts the way of Calum Davenport, who is in hospital after fracturing a bone in his neck during his first match on loan at Watford. The injury brings an immediate end to Devenport's loan spell and he will return to West Ham. The 25-year-old defender had to be […]

Premier League executives are discussing proposals for clubs to play one match a season overseas when the international TV rights deal comes up for renewal in 2010, according to The Daily Mirror in an article entitled "United's Friendly Match is a Taste of Things to Come." The reason why the Premier League is considering this […]

February 1st the inevitable is going to happen with the US national team. Giuseppe Rossi is going to declare his allegiance to the Azzurri. Maybe I am going to hear it from people saying that I would like to see the US fail and the other generic arguments that put me under the category of […]

The 2-0 scoreline in favor of the United States in last night's friendly in Carson, CA was a nice scoreline for the United States, but mistakes in the final third and some breakdowns defensively will have to be corrected going forward. Landon Donovan broke the record for most goals by a US National Team player […]

Episode 99 of the EPL Talk Podcast features exclusive interviews with Steve McClaren, Gerard Houllier and Jozef Venglos from the 2008 NSCAA event hosted in Baltimore. The brief interviews discuss whether McClaren is interested in managing in America, if the reports are true that Houllier will be the next Republic of Ireland manager and what […]

EPL Talk is giving away an autographed Bolton Wanderers pennant to one lucky person. It was won today, and rather than hang it on my wall, I thought one of you out there would love to have it. It's 100% authentic and, notably, it's one of the last few pennants to feature Nicolas Anelka's signature […]

View EPL Talk's photo slideshow from the NSCAA event featuring a picture of a relaxed Steve McClaren, Gerard Houlier, the new stars of GolTV and much more. Enjoy.

For the second time in six months the United States will face Sweden in a friendly. But this time, the game will be played at the friendly confines of the Home Depot Center and without any of Sweden's stars that play outside of Scandinavia. The last time the US faced Sweden, the Red, White and […]

My first day in Baltimore attending the NSCAA event (National Soccer Coaches Association of America) has been a success. I interviewed Gerard Houllier and asked him whether he was in the running for the Republic of Ireland manager's position, met Steve McClaren, spoke with a senior vice president of marketing from Fox Soccer Channel, interviewed […]

If you're a neutral observer like me, this weekend's slate of games really doesn't have any compelling storylines or reasons to get excited, at least from the outside. None of the big teams are playing each other and there are no rivalry games. The closest thing to a true derby is the Fulham-Arsenal affair at […]
