Here is a simple example for iOS 8. Popover are presented using adaptivity apis in iOS 8.

class PlayerInformationTableViewController: UITableViewController, UIPopoverPresentationControllerDelegate, NSFetchedResultsControllerDelegate{

   ...


  @IBAction func addPopover(sender: UIBarButtonItem){
    let playerInformationViewController =  PlayerInformationViewController()
    playerInformationViewController.modalPresentationStyle = .Popover
    playerInformationViewController.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(300, 300)



    let popoverPresentationViewController = playerInformationViewController.popoverPresentationController
    popoverPresentationViewController?.permittedArrowDirections = .Any
    popoverPresentationViewController?.delegate = self
    popoverPresentationController?.barButtonItem = sender
    presentViewController(playerInformationViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
  }


  func adaptivePresentationStyleForPresentationController(controller: UIPresentationController!) -> UIModalPresentationStyle{
    return .None
  }

}
