"Lots of you seem to think Radamel Falcao would fit in nicely at your club. I can't think why? But the bad news, for most of you, is that the 26-year-old Colombian has got a whopping £50m buy-out clause in his contract at Atletico Madrid. Any takers?"
In case anyone was wondering:- "The UEFA Super Cup (also called the European Super Cup) is an annual football game between the reigning champions of the two club competitions organised by the European football governing body UEFA: the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League. It takes place at the start of the domestic season, in August, normally on a Friday. It took place at Stade Louis II in Monaco from its beginning. It will be held there for the last time this year as Chelsea face Atlético Madrid." The score is rather embarrassing given the general quality of teams playing in these two European competitions. Imagine Chelsea are glad not to be facing Real Madrid or Barcelona. 4-1 now, consolation goal for Cahill.
Jonathan Pearce, BBC Sport "Chelsea awful. Defence shambolic. Midfield not tracking back. Poor poor poor. Waste of time this game." Sounds like us, 2nd half against Swansea.
They were worse, Swansea scored with every attack but AM hit the post about 4 times and had other great chances. It could have been near double figures.
But the Premier League is better than the Spanish First Division! None of that effing ticky-tacky here, just raw excitement every Saturday afternoon. Falcao couldn't hack it if he played for Stoke.
