2008 English Premier League - Page 2

ManU has injury issues, I don't see them having a blistering start. They've been so reliant on Ronaldo that it'll take a while to adjust. Funny saying that considering the quality of the other guys on the squad.

Chelsea looked good. It helped that Portsmouth looked horrid, though. Still, nice to see their midfield working well together. It will be interesting to see how Essien fits into all of this when he gets back and Drogba as well. I like what Drogba brings to Chelsea, he's a great player, but I'd really rather see Anelka with the bigger role. Maybe I'm just tired of Drogba and his whining or something but I wouldn't be heartbroken if he left.

Stoke v A.Villa was an awesome match. That touch and goal by Fuller is gonna be on highlight reels for weeks, god damn it was pretty. What a way to come into the league.

Any of you guys have your club's respective "Online ppv TV"? I was thinking about getting the Liverpool TV since I cannot catch any games. If not please tell me what package (US guys only) you get to receive the games? I heard Fox Sports channel but not sure.

Anything will help, very sick of missing games.

I started off using myp2p.eu to watch live streams, but not the best quality or reliability so might not be what you're after. Was thinking of getting the liverpool one as well until I discovered that my ISP provides a free ondemand service that shows some games liver and some on demand. Not always liverpool, unfortunately, but the price is right!

Maybe try mediazone? Think they might be a decent option, or possibly setanta could offer some streaming options.

Dr.Knockers · 08-26-2008, 08:14 AM

GolTV for me down in South FL. I get Argentina, Spain, and Germany coverage witch is good enough for me. Never been a fan of the EPL style of football ;p

Otherwise, Fox sports is decent. I just can't stand the announcers.

Waedar · 08-26-2008, 09:23 AM

i use myp2p just fine, not sure bout LP but with Chelsea i've picked out the 2 or 3 streams that normally show the games and have the best quality (there are still others to choose from but i've my favorites picked) depending on location FSC usually has the "big" EPL games on some live then some aired delayed, however its sorta pick and choose since they, at least here, show all the leagues and try to please everyone so no sure bets

After 2 weeks, it was the match of the year. I thought the penalty was a bit questionable, but Villa were WAY too aggressive in the box. They made 2 or 3 questionable plays on the ball before the penalty was given. Fuller's touch and goal was straight fucking class. People will go on and on about the touch itself, but Friedel had the angle on him and Fuller struck the ball perfectly and put it right in that corner. It's easily the best goal of the young season.

Also, I can't defend Arsene and Arsenal right now. I'm at a loss for words over how thin the squad is and the fact that we just played Eboue and Denilson in our central midfielder.

What's WORSE? Eboue was far better than Denilson, who broke a fucking record for most passes that were at least 5 yards away from any teammate.

edit: Knockers, what exactly don't you like about the EPL? I could understand not liking the Italian leagues because ya know, they're full of slow pace and diving cunts..but most people tend to love the English leagues because of the pace and action of it. I've never actually had a chance to see Bundesliga matches although I really want to get Gol TV for 5 bucks a month.

MyP2P should be a lot more reliable now that the Olympics are over. Most of the streams come out of asian countries and do the huge amount of bandwith that the Olympics were eating up with streams and what not, a lot of the sopcast/tvants/tvu streams were pure shit. They should be okay now. There was actually a 3 day period were sopcast was completely down.

I was thinking about it but cant really afford it right now, shits tight. For now Fox Soccer Channel satisfies. Catch a few premier league games on the weekend and other crap throughout the week.

The internet streams are usually pretty good. Worst case you can always just download a "Match of the Day" torrent off the net.

Anyone know a decent site for the program Revista De La Liga? Most of the torrent sites I frequent never have it anymore.

Waedar · 08-31-2008, 09:50 PM

Well fuck tottenham as usual, rather dull game anyways but hay at least Chelsea weren't the first to drop the 100% streak this season

Amahk · 09-03-2008, 12:19 AM

Anyone surprised at the final day of EPL transfers namely Robinho to City?
I'm shocked actually. I personally feel he came here to try and show up C.Ronaldo since he's always felt he's been doing those moves before Ronaldo. Anything think this could spell a change for the established order? I have a feeling one of these teams(Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United) will be dropped out of the top 4 and I hope that whoever places 5th wins the CL since I'd hate to not see one of them in there next year.

Damn! And a statement of intent where they will tempt Manure's resolve with a £135 million pound offer for C.Ron and I fully believe they'll do this too. Especially as they tried to pip Manure to Berba and they got Robinho before Chelsea. I'm really worried for Arsenal. Wenger's ego might make us go another year trophyless

Hannibal · 09-03-2008, 05:57 AM

City are just embarrassing themselves by their "Statement of Intent" and saying that they're gonna bid on Ronaldo, Torres and Fabregas. It will be a couple years of consistent league performance and CL runs before big name players even look in City's direction.

Robinho fucked it up himself by crying for months about trying to leave Madrid and when deadline day came he painted himself into a corner. He had to go, there was no way he could have stayed at Real. Although I guess the 6 million a year City was offering will help. He's always been a whiny little shitbag. He pissed at moaned back when he was at Santos to be transferred to Real back in the day.

My money is on him failing spectacularly and he's in for a rude awakening. Running out mid December in the rain freezing your ass off against a physical team like Bolton will make him wish he stayed in Madrid.

Waedar · 09-03-2008, 11:44 AM

it'll be interesting to say the least, if Man City continue to get cash injections and if one of the big 4 has a season like LP's last year (remember the talk of everton possibly stealing 4th and the CL spot?) it can be a change. Will that happen this year? I doubt it and even so i'd have more money on a strong everton or spurs performance over man city.

they might be the team people need to look out for more and more but i still say games at the JJB and ST. James were chelsea need all 3 would worry me more

Your team has first mine has 2nd. Torres hurt so I dunno how LP will do next game.

Regime · 09-04-2008, 02:33 PM

Finally get to watch the Villa LP game. Keane clearly fouled (Red card) before the shot.
