Premier League Matchweek 3 (26-27 August)

It begs the question why broadcasters from other countries are allowed to pick and choose.

Perhaps different countries' broadcasting services/corporations have different deals with the Premier League. So there may be a wider range of selection for broadcasts in USA (as one example), compared to Sweden. And it's probably down to more money, but I'm just guessing.

I have no idea. It makes no sense.

Yup.

Without insight, it can't be explained whatsoever. Why the original broadcaster choose as they choose for themselves regarding live matches is another story altogether. Could it be because it's West Brom, and that they are in the Birmingham region?
 
Koeman with the sunlight looks like Donald Trump.
 
They did this last season as well, showed some absolutely banal looking fixtures on paper for Tv viewing early on. I get they have to fill a quota and broadcast to every teams fans but given how much we have to pay, the fact we can't even watch every game is ludicrous when you think about it.
 
Everton are being dragged all over the place.
 
Fabregas' forward passes are so important for Chelsea's build up. Bad pass now, though.
 
Everton played on thursday night so this is a re-arranged saturday 3pm game and therefore not on telly.

It's bullshit.

Agree. I would be livid if I had to miss out on watching Liverpool because they showed WBA-Stoke
 
Some lovely crisp passing for Everton now.
 
Why the fecks WBA - Stoke on Sky Sports in favour of Chelsea - Everton?!
 
Did the commentator just say that Besic's dad got shot yesterday and is in hospital? You'd think Everton would give the bloke the day off!

Yep, but Besic probably got used to it by now, his dad is problematic idiot who gets himself in big trouble every month or so. Last year he ran his SUV through the crowd because he was drunk, injuring 8 people.
