The FA Premier League (which, for sponsorship/legal reasons, is often referred to as the Barclays Premiership in the UK and the Barclays English Premier League internationally) is a league competition for English Football clubs located at the top of the English football league system (above The Football League), making it England's primary football competition.
The English Premier League - with teams such as Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal - can claim to be the greatest domestic soccer league in the world. It is currently the top in the UEFA rankings of European leagues based on their performances in European competitions in 2004–05.
Founded in 1992, it is a twenty-club league with the three bottom clubs relegated to Division 1 of the Football League each year. The Premiership boasts some of the best players in the world, including many from outside England.
Promoted as "The Greatest Show On Earth", the FA Premier League is the world's most popular and most watched sporting league, followed worldwide by over a billion people. Over 260 foreign players compete in the league, and 101 stars from England's domestic leagues competed in the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan. It is widely watched overseas, with matches being shown in over 150 countries.
