After 90-something days of waiting, football fans across the country can relax once more as the big kick-off has finally arrived.

That's right, the Premier League is back

And on this website, InTheNews will be covering all the news, views, comments and action from all the games to bring you match reports, transfer gossip, predictions and everything else you need to know.

More than £350 million has been spent on new players this close season, a record for the Premiership, with Fernando Torres' move from Atletico Madrid to Liverpool the most expensive at £21.5 million.

Ajax's Ryan Babel has also joined the Reds in a £13.5 million deal, but north-west rivals Manchester United have made the most £10 million-plus signings, bringing Owen Hargreaves, Nani and Anderson, as well as - finally - Carlos Tevez, to Old Trafford.

Chelsea have limited their transfer moves to a £13.5 million deal for Florent Malouda and a few free transfers, while Arsenal have said goodbye to some famous faces in Thierry Henry, Freddie Ljungberg and Jose Antonio Reyes on their way to making a tidy profit.

Tottenham, Portsmouth and Sunderland have been among the other major spenders, while Everton, Derby County and Wigan have kept the purse strings tight.
