Chelsea v Atlético Madrid (USC) 31/08/12 KO 19:45 BST

[KrazyTea]

Thibaut Courtois, that is correct.

He plays for them but can he play against us? I thought not.

 

[That Boy Brandinho]

Is our second choice GK playing for them ?

Unfortunately, Turnbull is not playing for them.

 

[Maksimov]

Desperately want this one , you don't get many chances to win it so it would be really nice to win.

Two out of two would be awesome. Even teams like ManU and Real Madrid have won it only once, even though they've played in the Super Cup several times.

 

[The Moos]

He plays for them but can he play against us? I thought not.

He can play against us and will. Read somewhere that he's really looking forward to this game and will do his best to stop us.

Whose got this ITV? ESPN? Sky?

We beat Real Madrid in one of them, Hiddink was manager of Madrid I think.

Cannot wait for this, Always wanted to go to Monaco. Expensive but f**k it

I hope he will play. He was integral part of the team that wone the EL, he deserves to be there for this match.

My tv guide is completely clueless about this match. It has as announcement: "At the time this issue went to press, no details were available which match will be broadcast." The poor buggers probably think it's one out of 4 CL matches being played. Oh how I wish to enlighten the editors...

BTW I want this prize. It will look so pretty among the other ones and it will piss off our esteemed league opponents. And Liverpool.

 

[Castiel]

Looking forward to this and would love to win it; especially since its a pretty rare prize.

 

[scotsblue]

It's on itv

 

[TrojanMan]

Bring on the first silverware of the season!!!

I'd love to go but the trip from Canada is a bit more expensive

 

[comtrend]

Cech

Iva-Terry-Cahill-Cole

Mikel-Lampard

Moses-Oscar-Hazard

Torres/Sturridge

Not sure how RDM rates this match, but Oscar should start this game since he was left out of newcastle match and Mata need some rest. It would be intressting to see Moses on right hand side, but fine with Sturridge or Ramires there as well. Mikel have been improving and Lampard was also rested for Newcastle game. Not sure I want Torres playing 90 minutes in this game, would suck getting a injury.

 

[Bobbywoodhogan]

Really excited for this, hope to god we win but this is gonna be a difficult game.

 

[Xfaxtor]

Honestly couldnt care less about this game. Hope we rest all the regulars.

 

[Andreas]

How can you not care about this game? its a european trophy you dont get many chances of winning.

Stupid mentality.

Looking forward to this, want us to go out there and win it and add another trophy to the cabinet.

 

[Arq]

This is a match we will not get to play in very often. I'm definitely excited for this one.

Let's get an early trophy and keep this momentum going.

 

[bluedave]

I'm looking forward to this, it should be a good exhibition match and winning it would provide a further boost to the squad's confidence and morale.

I can understand how some people can regard it as unimportant though as it's basically the European equivalent of the Charity Shield.

 

[Eight Times]

Honestly couldnt care less about this game. Hope we rest all the regulars.

That's a shame, the novelty of winning trophies hasn't rubbed off for me yet, happy times!
