In anticipation of the upcoming Premier League season, NBC Sports linked up with comedian Jason Sudeikis to have a little fun. Meet Coach Ted Lasso, an American football coach who has just been named the new manager of Tottenham Hotspur.

every single game will be available as nbc will have feeder channels that are live when they need extra channels. Also will allow to stream for free online through their site. Can't wait.

I'm guessing you have to be in the US for the free streaming on their site, right?

Yeah thought so. Was worth asking anyway.

Of course. More so you have to have a TV provider able to provide something called Premier league extra time, which seems to be an on demand/red button system. Not every cable provider in the US will offer that. I think there are three or four channels with the rest of the games available via PLET. I'd imagine Stoke vs Sunderland will be the sort of fixture you'll get on that, presumably it'll be mainly used for 3PM kick-offs, another reason that having a game on Sunday will be good for us.

Was on this last night.

There's an Everton-Liverpool one too. Their new badge looks like shit.

Ours looked glorious of course.
