This has put a rain check on self-congratulatory celebrations at Chelsea regarding our promising season...At Madrid have completely outplayed us. I wonder what the mentality of the players going into the match was- was it closer to a friendly than to a cup final?

I suspect Chelsea underestimated them.

Is it confirmed?

Yeah pretty much I think.

If so, benfica is gonna be so funny, 23515 forward players and 1 or even none(leftback) for each defense spot.

P.S. What a trashing...i thought chelsea was on form Oo

We have Silvio on loan from Atletico Madrid and then Melgarejo and Luisinho. We are thin in holding midfielders. Matic is gonna have to shine.

At least it seems they got rid of Nolito to get Silvio, that's a bit better.

So it looks like Dempsey is going to Tottenham, Moutinho not. I really think QPR have gone all out getting M'Bia in, he could be a rock for them this season.

Haha no way, Brighton signed Stephen Dobbie from Swansea...exactly what I did to start my football manager career with Brighton, who are now in 2020 2 time champions of europe and 3 time premier league champs xD, all started by mr dobbie.

How come no one moaning at Atletico like they did Chelsea last season? Might be a bit but hurt of course, but they played excatly like we did vs Barca and people saying they amazing? 2 banks of 4 EVERY time Chelsea had ball? We had more possesion than them in both halves and overall by 10% minimun. The counter attack and score 4 goals, good goals and worthy of them (minus the 2nd which was clear foul on Ivanovic) but they played like we did but even more clinical with a striker who is in great form. Yet Chelsea play 2 banks of 4 in front of keeper and it deemed defensive :S

Differences?

Ehermm what ?

Chelsea's defensive qualities when they play attacking football were always going to be a concern under Di Matteo. They've done a decent bit in the League but European opposition is a different beast. Its just some growing pains imo.

Yeah Chelsea didn't play to protect the goal, it's definitely going to be a process of working out how to increase the attacking output whilst not being exposed at the back.

Also, Berba for 4 mill to Fulham...quality signing for them I think.

They give out stats of every game after it ended. Maybe next time wait for them before you claim more ball possession?

Spanish football is just insane these years, other than barca and madrid, Atletico Madrid, Athletic Bilbao and Valencia. These clubs makes it big in the european tourneys with some brilliant attacking football. spanish portuguese football culture seems to know what's up and i love it EVERY year i watch europa league and champions :D

http://www.uefa.com/uefasupercup/season=2012/matches/round=2000278/match=2007694/postmatch/statistics/index.html

UEFA Website says 59% Chelsea 41% Atletico..And if you think Atletico had more possesion than Chelsea what game were you watching?

60.2 Possession 39.8

Chelsea >> Atletico from Sky Sports too who were covering the game.

I actually bet money on Atletico winning against Chelsea and I'm glad I did Falcao is simply one of the best strikers if not the best striker in the game at the moment.

Unlike Chelsea Atletico created lots and lots of chances. That and it's damn satisfying to see Chelsea taken apart by a defensive side, a taste of your own medicine xD

Haha Chelsea is one of those teams where they are your favorite team, or you hate them. This is why Atletico is getting so much love. Besides Chelsea fans, everyone wants to see Chelsea lose.

Edit: said giving them instead of getting, made no sense. fixed.

About 30 euro's. Not too much, but a good amount I had a friend place the bet for me so I'm not entirely sure about the odds, but he told me I nearly doubled the amount so I'm happy about it. I'll have to buy him some drinks though, because he bet on Chelsea

glad to see berbatov join fulham. I think he'll strive there, much like at leverkusen and tottenham.
