EL NINO#9i believe this would be the chelsea lineup for the uefa super cup which is expected to start in less than an hour time,i expect nothing less than a win from the uefa champions league winners but football is unpredictable especially aleticos striker falcoa who can cause massive destruction.i predict a 3-1 in favour of chelsea.please give your thoughts.

JimmyGuitaristJust seen the starting line-up, and it looks like you're spot on.
I'm expecting this:
31.08.2012
EL NINO#9ahaha thanks :D, and may i ask your prediction?
31.08.2012
JimmyGuitaristI'm going for a 2-1 win to Athletico Madrid. Not sure why, I can see Chelsea trying a high-line & I can see Falcao catching them cold.
31.08.2012
EL NINO#9nice! but i have to disagree with you on that one.
31.08.2012
chelseaboi99Wow! 1-4! Falcao and Arda Turan! What players! Can you believe we almost got these two guys a few years back?
Falcao: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/929869/porto-star-radamel-falcao-keen-on-chelsea-move?cc=5901
Arda Turan:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2008425/Chelsea-offered-Galatasarays-Arda-Turan-exchange-Didier-Drogba-plus-7m.html
Shame we couldn't get them both. Better than Torres and Ramires in my opinion.

EL NINO#9@jimmy sadly,you were right...we did lose. @chelseaboi99 dissapointing scoreline but you are so wrong,i mean its your opinion and i respect it but torres is better than falcao(not atm) and ramires is better than turan.
01.09.2012
JimmyGuitaristWell my prediction was right about Falcao catching them cold. I was wrong in how many times I predicted he'd catch them cold though.
01.09.2012
chicarooneyBrilliant lineup prediction, Chelsea lost 4-1 TBH I wasn't expecting that, Falcao was amazing and he should be playing for a top Premier League club
01.09.2012
JimmyGuitaristI'm glad that he's stuck with Athletico Madrid. No doubt English clubs will try to get him in the next window. That's why the EPL frustrates me. We don't make success, we just buy it.

chelseaboi99@EL NINO#9
Falcao is way better than Torres, its not even close. Ask anybody.
And Arda Turan is better for the system we are trying to play (possession), Ramires is box to box and the only thing he has are pace, stamina and work ethic. I would put Ramires as one of the CDM's not wingers. Arda Turan over Ramires any day.
01.09.2012
chicarooney@chelseaboi99 I agree with you 100%, Falcao is one of the best strikers in the world even before last night he was still way better than Torres. Chelsea were very unlucky not to get Falcao a couple of years ago.
01.09.2012
EL NINO#9@chelseaboi99 1 bad season and suddenly falcao is better? are you forgetting his liverpool and atletico days? falcao is better atm but when torres recovers his form that will change,plus from changing your tactics from a slow striker(Drogba) to a fast striker(Torres),its difficult for a team to adapt.

mojojojo101Chelsea were simply out-played in thisgame, Atletico didn't have to do anything spectacular but could of won but a far bigger margain if they hadn't of pulled up a bit in the last 25 minutes or so. Falcao was brilliant again (6 goals in 2 games this week), probably the best out and out striker in the world right now imo.
Have to say I thought RDM made a neive desicion bringing on Oscar for Ramires at the beggining of the 2nd half, Atletico were all ready crowding out the space in front of the defence effectively, stopping Hazard and Mata from playing, adding Oscar in there just made the problem worse.

Torres has been shite for 2 1/2 seasons now. Falcao has been at this top level for 3 years now. He is only 26 as well. If Torres honestly does play well by January transfer window, I feel he will be axed.

david1993Chelsea vs Atlético Madrid was great game Falcao once again should his class.he phenomenal against Chelsea just like he was against Bilbao Monday previous to the game,
in other chelsea topics you seem me with my opinion on chelsea defensively.that it will be chelsea biggest problem and it showed a lot against Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid performance on the night was excellent.
Koke who is only 20 had an excellent game and also Mario Suarez. both were excellent on the night
04.09.2012
CrocoI was expecting a better game than that, but Chelsea looked lackluster from the opening whistle and Falcao made them pay dearly. It's a shame that Atletico is stuck in La Liga with the two uberclubs above them, cause they are really a great club and deserve better. And my icon should say it all...
04.09.2012
EL NINO#91 word comes to mind remembering that game and that word is dissapointing.chelsea was no doubt the better the team heading in that game but falcao and a madrid showed me different and proved me wrong!
