Summary: We are joined once again by Premier League commentator Ian Darke for his take on the murky outcome of a Manchester United and Chelsea encounter that seemed more of setting the stage for a long season than establishing key points to watch as the transfer window closes and clubs begins to solidify behind new managers and new arrivals this summer. We examine the questions of what could emerge in the market for players like Juan Mata and Wayne Rooney, but also whether other early talking points such as a lack of presence by Shinji Kagawa and the Manchester United wide players might mean more activity could happen there. We also explore the matter of North London in advance of that derby as Arsenal continue to not deliver needed reinforcements while Tottenham continues to set the stage in advance of the Gareth Bale sale with a high number of quality signings of an emerging class of player which might, in fact, place an even bigger challenge at the feet of Andre Villas-Boas as too many changes at once might surpass the sum of this new talent. We close on a new season commentating the Premier League for Ian Dark with BT Sport, the challenge of preparing for a season where more and more foreign talent is appearing and the players that he is looking forward to seeing in 2013-14.
