I currently watch in France on any old live thread I can find, but I think these are 'dubious' legality although I don't really know.

What I'd like to do is to pay a subscription to a fully legal streaming site which shows live premier league games internationally. Can anybody recommend a provider?

Pretty sure that's not possible....PL rights are sold in every European country individually. Might be possible from whoever has the rights in France.

I started a similar thread a while back for the Mayweather fight. All I wanted was a legal way to pay to and stream the fight, which was not possible and in the end I missed. It amazes me that with the likes of Periscope app etc... The Powers That Be cannot/will not allow legal streaming, at a lower cost. I believe Sky sports will let you buy a day pass for thir online services (VPN required if not in the UK) but it's quite expensive (6quid?A match no subscription required I believe) and you buy 6 games during a month, that's more then subscribing!! And the quality varies depending on the demand put on their servers and your connection e.g Barca v Real was almost unwatchable with buffering etc... But stoke v palace....)

Maybe better to reassess your concerns over "dubious legality" or simply pay for a subscription service. CANAL+ show every single game live - you have the benefit of being able to watch every EPL game live on a Saturday, something that is not available to UK residents who have no option but to stream.

Useful info Teknopug. Can you confirm that Canal+ show every Premier League game? Being a Palace fan we know we aren't really 'box office' especially when we play lower teams, but I'd happily subscribe if I could see every game live.
