From Wikipedia:

The Premier League is an English professional league for association football clubs. At the top of the English football league system, it is the country's primary football competition. Contested by 20 clubs, it operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Football League. The Premier League is a corporation in which the 20 member clubs act as shareholders. Seasons run from August to May, with teams playing 38 matches each, totalling 380 matches in the season. Most games are played on Saturdays and Sundays, with a few games played during weekday evenings. It is currently sponsored by Barclays Bank and therefore officially known as the Barclays Premier League. Outside England it is commonly referred to as the English Premier League (EPL).

Last season the title went to Manchester City.

Promoted to the Premier League this season: Reading, Southampton and West Ham United, replacing the relegated Bolton Wanderers, Blackburn Rovers and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Who's the title favourite this year? Who will be relegated? Discuss in this thread.

Speaking of Arsenal:

Arsenal and Barcelona have agreed a ?19million fee for Alex Song, who will join the La Liga side on Monday.

The midfielder becomes the latest star to leave the north London club following Robin Van Persie's ?24million move to Manchester United on Friday.

Song, 24, was left out of Arsenal's 0-0 draw with Sunderland at the Emirates and is expected to fly to Spain on Sunday ahead of the five-year switch.

A statment on the Catalan club's website said: "FC Barcelona has agreed a deal with Arsenal FC for the transfer of Alex Song to the Camp Nou. The fee is 19 million euros.

"The Cameroon international midfielder will sign for the next five seasons with a release clause of 80 million euros.

"On Monday he?ll have a medical and then join the rest of the squad for the official team presentation at the Gamper."

Manchester United should win it this season if they don't make silly mistakes again like the draw against Everton last season after going up 4-something. The squad is strengthened and we have our top players back, hoping Fletcher will be back soon. Reading, Southampton and Sunderland to go down but I hoped it would be Manchester City instead :(

Add Walcott to be gone in this transfer window also.

He is a 15,000,000+ transfer.

Still Wenger has not put out the strongest side.

Giroud missed a sitter.

Transfer window should close end of July, it's a pain in the backside.

Pained me to vote Man U, but I did. Also, QPR, Reading, Swansea relegated.

Exciting to see Hazard & Oscar for the Blues perform well and looks like Torres is playing much more fluid without Didier. Don't think Chelsea can win League but should be fun season regardless!

I find it odd why you are not supporting your local team.

Brighton & Hove Albion!

never seen them play, seen West Ham loads of times plus my dad was a life long West Ham fan and its kind of a family thing!

    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
