I've moved your post as it wasn't an Accessibility issue per se.

 

Which TV platform do you subscribe to?

I think you'll got the wrong end of the stick regarding Sky Sports+. It doesn't cover all matches.

The Sky Sports package only includes Sky Sports channels

(with the exception of Sky Sports News, Sky Sports Racing and Sky Sports Mix, with are part of the Sky Signature/Ultimate package). 

 

The following are individual packages and are not included with the Sky Sports package: 

  • TNT Sports (UK)
  • Premier Sports (UK)
  • Sports Extra (Ireland)
    (Sports Extra has TNT Sports and Premier Sports)
  • MUTV HD
  • LFCTV HD
  • Racing TV

You mentioned you wanted to watch Manchester United, which I assume would be part of MUTV HD. To subscribe to MUTV, go to https://www.sky.com/tv/sports and scroll down.

Not necessarily, MUTV wouldn't have the rights to show PL games live.

As OP said: "all of the man united games". This could be assumed as MUTV HD, possible historical and practice matches.

The Premier League specifically doesn't permit one platform to acquire rights to every game in its season, which is why TNT has a tranche of them.

Other competitions in Europe and elsewhere will have had different rights sales and realistically even Sky cannot afford to outbid everyone for everything.
