A new Premiership season is already here with new expectations and new names in the line up. However, it would be a terrible thing to miss out on all the action of your favorite team, as well as rivals. So, if you are an iOS user, you needn't worry as all your Footballing (or Soccer) needs and news are now easy to acquire.
We have compiled a list of the top four apps that are more than capable of seeing you through the entire season, and beyond. While some are free, others are paid. The apps are enumerated below.
Premier League 20 Seasons
20 Seasons is the official Premier League app that aims to relive the first 20 seasons of the Premier League. Every team to have played in the Premier League between the 1992/1993 and 2011/2012 seasons is represented in the app, which presents more than 100 classic moments in a unique video format. Moreover, apart from iconic videos, there is also an interactive football quiz question associated with every clip.
Although, the app won't keep you informed on the latest developments this season, it will give you fantastic insight on the past 20 seasons of the Premier League. The app, available for $2.99, is universal (designed for both iPhone and iPad) and requires iOS 4.1 or later.
Caught Offside
Again a universal app, Caught Offside has been quite a popular independent Football/Soccer Web site for a while now and its app aims to do the same. It offers a wide variety of content from up-to-the minute news, video highlights, and rumors to in-depth features and analyses. As expected, there are also the all-important live scores and stats to keep you up to date.
The app is available for free and requires iOS 5.0 or later.
FourFourTwo Soccer Stats Zone
The FourFourTwo Soccer Stats Zone has been quite a cool app for following the game wherever you are. With FourFourTwo Soccer Stats Zone, you can analyze every match in England's top division in amazing detail.

You can also create your very own Fantasy Football team.
Even though several in-app purchases exist, the app itself is available for free and requires iOS 4.0 or later. FourFourtwo Soccer Stats Zone is a universal app.
