The GUNNERS! With a 4-2 against Bolton yesterday......tied with Chelsea but in first because of goal differential. United drops to 3rd.

I watched the match online yesterday. Tomas Rosicky was back and playing like the man. Lets hope they can hold...big match with ManUre coming up!!:D

Love it! They've been on fire since the loss to Chelsea in November. ManUre match followed by Chelsea the following week -- HUGE stretch!

You do know that Chelsea has a game in hand.

Should be a fantatstic finish to the Premiership, still think ManU finds a way to win it.

Yeah, Chelsea is still in first by 3 pts in my eyes.

I dont really care who wins, I just REALLY want a different team in the CL. So I am pulling for Villa, Man City, and Spurs to make it...

My team Liverpool just isn't living up to standards this year.

Liverpool has been pretty disappointing, that's for sure.

Gotta love the last two games for Landon. He looks really good out there. About time (I know its early) he realized his game translated more to England than anywhere else in Europe!

Wasn't ESPN to start showing EPL games? I thought I saw commercials for it, maybe I haven't been watching ESPN enough to know when it's on or not, or maybe I've been too busy?

They have been, virtually every Saturday morning. Its probably before your awake though (usually the 8:30 am time slot).

This Sunday at 3 is Malaga vs Real Madrid. Not EPL, but European Soccer is great no matter what!

No doubt. But FSC doesnt carry La Liga, so I am glad ESPN/ESPN Deportes are this year (even if its only half the games).

FSC has the best announcers in sports though.

if you have a chance to a Barca game, buy your gear here in the united states, ( a shirt from the team store in downtown Barcelona cost around 20 euro's, a hat was 17.95 euro's, and a team scarf was 30 euro's but air france paid for my shirt and hat.) i would also recommend taking a tour of the stadium on a non game day (17 euro's), i was told by the front desk person at the hostel i stayed at that you can walk on the pitch and take pictures from basically anywhere in the stadium.

My friend did the tour when he was abroad. Dont worry about apparel, I have 4 authentic jerseys, a warm up shirt (which I dont wear because it has 7 autographs on it) and a scarf. You could say Im a pretty big fan lol.

That's because they use the actual English anouncers calling the game on site.

American Barca fans might as well wear clown noses.
