I thought Showtime had it but not coming up on their listings. Best try a bar, maybe it'll turn up on some random channel and you can watch with the sound down.

The 3 Saturday games being shown live on BBC are being shown on Al Jazeera +1 Sports Channel - Arabic commentary.

Not sure about the Sunday games yet though.

Man I have to admit. Damn gunners ripped apart Liverpool last week - twise. Somehow never been fully convinced by Liverpool under Benitez - and he has spent a lot of money, Kuyt, Bellamy, Pennant. As a Spurs fan, I always fancy getting something out of a Liverpool game. The Arse - Cesc Fabregas - too damn good

if you knew anything about the real game of football .. you wouldnt have said i must be joking .. juventus have the most domestic title's apart from real madrid ... and that in a leauge that the greatest footballer in the world Maradona said is the toughest...

FA cup and the entire premiership aint about a thing when it comes to the italian or spanish leauge ... the english leauge is made up of a bunch of has been foreigner's ... its just hyped up by the english media ... who also seem to think wayne rooney is the preimierships latest cute boy... a country's domestic leauge can be judged by looking at the National team ... " ITALY WORLD CHAMPIONS" and 11 of the players who played the final game of the world cup .. belong'd to juventus ... so no doubt they are the best ... its a pitty they had to frame them with a scandal just cause other teams couldnt handle the competition .. just cause they say viewers numbers were going down cause everyone knew Juve is always gonna win ...
i mean with a 9 point deduction Juve is already sitting at the top of Serie B.

i mean let the stat's do the talking..

in the past 20 year's italian teams have won it ( champions leauge ) 5 times and spanish 5 times aswell .... england just twice ...

so you tell me do you know the real game of football??

Jamal Bro

The english league is not made of has been foreigner's come on man

Christiano Ronaldo on current form the best player in the world

Henry simply amazing player

robben, cech, xabi alonso, essien, to name a few these guys are world class players

No offence if you are a Juve fan but Juve are cheats thats why the won the league many teams. There were many matches over the years when they had decisions go for them when they should have lost or drawed the match. The 1 which sticks to mind for me is the parma game.

I hope Liverpool can do us a favour next week Massive game against Chelsea. While we got the Arsenal

Galactico,

Although the strikers of Man U have been doing well this season i believe the main reason for the sucessful season so far is the defense. I rate Nemanja Vidic as one of the best defenders in the world. His hunger for the ball is inspirational.

All,

My vote for the two best teams to win the Champions league (or equivalent) in the last 20 years would be:

AC Milan 1994 (class all round)
Red Star Belgrade 90/91 (probably the last team ever to win the premier european competition coming from a small eastern european country. Fantastic players who went on to star for other teams.)

The Chapions League unfortunately has reinvented itself for the worst. Opting to cater for the sponsors ahead of the football. More games, group stages designed for more television revenue. The old knock out system produced a different and more exciting brand of football.

That aside, I believe the English league is enjoyable to watch but still falls behind Spain & Italy in quality. However the gap is closing.

You right about Vidic he has been phenomenal but you forgetting someone else who is key to this side Scholes this guy is playing his best football this year

I think that Juve were good aswell when they won the champions league in 96 they got to 2 more finals in a row and this is hard to do and they did have world class players like davids, zindane, del piero.

Overall its has to be Real Madrid they won it the most 9 times it will be hard to catch that up for any team.

Glasgow Rangers hold the world record for titles I believe - in the mighty Scottish Premier League!

Maradonna was right, but 15 years ago. Since then, the Spanish (1st) and English (2nd) have surpassed Italy. The Spanish league is technically brilliant, the English best for blood, guts and thunder and the Italians best for tactics. People watch football for technical ability and excitement, hence why Italy's star has waned.

Being a Scotsman on the receiving end of British (i.e. English) media most of my life, I agree it's overhyped but I would still watch the EPL over any other league. Man U had 26 attempts on goal yesterday and were amazing to watch, especially first half yesterday.

By the way, I don't support any big teams, I support a small team in the Scottish 3rd division so I can hardly be called biased.

for excitment the english premiership is number 1 followed by the spanish

Serie A lost its edge since the 90's when you had teams like Milan Juve, Lazio Roma Inter and even Fiorentina with the great Batistuta fighting for the title.

These days most players prefer spain then england has destinations.

Serie A since the scandal lost its sparkal even more now

Jamal said Juve had won the most titles. Rangers have won the Scottish League over 50 times.
