One thing I have noticed in recent weeks is the lack of real chances we are creating for ourselves.
The thing is, because of this happening, the likes of Danny Sturridge (as he demonstrated
yesterday) have taken a selfish approach to his game and is shooting whenever he gets the ball in
or around the box rather then lift his head up and look for a killer pass or to create a chance for
someone else.

21.01.2012 - Después de 8 meses (21.05.2011, tres de Aguero) el Atlético de Madrid vuelve
a ganar de visitante. Pasaron nevadas, lluvias, soles, lunas, decepciones, jugadores y

Y ganó claramente (0-4) en casa de una Real Sociedad que traÃa siete partidos de invicto.
Yes, you're looking at the sticky note belonging to Jose Mourinho from
Saturday's match between Real Madrid and Mallorca. Granted, his
handwriting looks a little like your 7-year-old sister's when she's penning a poem about Prince
Charming in a pink cape, but who cares?
SPANISH FOOTBALL today-tonight with the remaining five matches of Round 19 ( the season half-way
mark) of the SPANISH LEAGUE. Here are all the final results & the scorers. Falcao. Atletico de
Madrid ATLETICO DE MADRID finally managed to get back on the winning path with a 3 - 0 victory over
VILLAREAL at home.
Fedor é sinónimo de «mau cheiro» e de «repugnante», mas há, pelo menos, um Fedor que até se
está a revelar bem positivo. É o caso de Miku Fedor, avançado venezuelano do Getafe, que já
leva cinco golos apontados na Liga Espanhola (dois deles ao Real Madrid), sendo um dos oitavos
melhores marcadores atrás de craques como Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Soldado ou Falcao.

Remember, remember, the fifth of November.

Remember? None of us are likely to forget this fifth of November if Chelsea somehow fail to win
for a third successive game. A loss our third straight in the league and, well, Andre Villas-Boas
will be remembering the good ol' days back in Portugal.

We've already seen a player notch with his crotch today, so bona fide Brazilian futsal legend
Falcao's injury-time goal against Russia in the Grand Prix final continues the theme nicely in so
far as the tricky-dicky 34-year old veteran scored the late winner with his left breasticle to
secure a 2-1 victory at the death and, by extension, that Brazil lifted the trophy on home
soil.
This probably has to be one of the worst excursions ever excuted in football
history seriously. There have been some potential bombers preceding this German football team
visiting the zoo, Spanish national team climbing boats, Dutch Oranje heading to Brazil's Copacabana
beach in their trainers and more recently, Real Madrid going go-karting.
When Andre Villas-Boas took the Chelsea job and gave on his first interviews he was asked about
certain players here (Torres) and getting the best out of them. What he said was important at the
time and three months later we are beginning to see him develop exactly what he has promised.
What he said when he took over was:
"We faced this question last year at Porto with a striker of the quality of
Falcao.
I noticed an interview published before the Bolton game and bookmarked it to refer back to today
and especially now after yesterdays result, it is even more appropriate to discuss it now.
AVB was speaking of Danny Sturridge and what he offers Chelsea and his team and has compared him to
"Hulk" of Porto.
Daniela Tamayo es una modelo colombiana de éxito en su paÃs, aunque nacida en Nueva York,
a la que le gusta mucho el fútbol y por eso sigue con mucho interés la gran aparición de
Radamel Falcao en el Atlético.
El argentino
Leo Messi se impuso claramente en el duelo de estrellas que le enfrentaba al
colombiano
Radamel Falcao, consiguiendo tres goles de bandera que ayudaron al Barcelona a
golear al Atlético de Madrid en el Camp Nou.
El pulso entre ambos jugadores, publicitado en la previa del partido por aficionados y medios de
comunicación, sólo tuvo un color, el azulgrana que viste
Leo Messi y su triplete goleador.
Relatively slim picking this weekend for must-see matches. Here are a few quick picks for
Saturday:
Saturday, Sept 24
Spain, Sevilla-Valencia 12pmET (GolTV): Valencia is atop La Liga, undefeated
after drawing Barcelona at home mid-week, in an exciting game they very well could have won (or
lost, actually).
Every Barca fan will be approaching this game in most probability with a very much confused
head. The confusion comes from the kind of oscillating results we had since the start of the
season. Already there have been two away matches and same number of home matches. FC Barcelona has
amazed a mind blowing 13 goals in the home matches.
El
Atlético de Madrid está de enhorabuena de momento tras cuatro jornadas disputadas de
Liga en las que ha logrado dos
abultadas victorias por 4-0 ante Racing y Sporting, aunque
con empate a cero ante Osasuna y la única derrota ante el Valencia por 1-0.
Lo que se puede apreciar es que el
Atlético es de los equipos que más goles mete con
8
a favor y tan sólo uno en su contra.
Cesc F bregas continued his free-scoring start to his FC Barcelona career with a second-half
equaliser as the champions twice came from behind to draw 2-2 at Valencia.
An Éric Abidal own goal edged the Liga leaders ahead but the visitors swiftly levelled when
Pedro RodrÃguez rifled in Lionel Messi's assist.
(Summary is not available.)
Angel DI(VE) Maria. He earned his nickname last Sunday. The Olympics are next year you
Jackass. 1.0 What have we done? It just HAD to be the absence of Khedira once again
that made the difference. Only this time, we weren't talking about the difference between winning
by 4-0 or 4-2.
El Atlético de Madrid ha conseguido el primer triunfo en lo que va de temporada ante el Racing
Club por un contundente 4-0, en el que el delantero rojiblanco
Falcao ha conseguido su
primer'hat-trick' en la Liga, algo que no se veÃa a orillas del Manzanares desde que
Salva
Ballesta lo lograra en 2005.

El Atlético ha conseguido una cómoda victoria por dos goles a cero ante el Celtic de Glasgow en
la jornada inicial de la Liga Europa. Los goles de
Radamel Falcao y
Diego Ribas
llevaron la fiesta a un Vicente Calderón que cada vez está más emocionado con la nueva era de

Muy pronto se le puso de cara el encuentro al Atlético, cuando
Falcao conectaba de forma
impresionante un cabezazo al fondo de la red tras un córner servido por
Diego Ribas.
Morning, saucepots. I shan't keep you long. Spurs are on Europa League duties this evening and
Greece is very much the word on everyone's lips. And here're some more words to get your noise

herberts that stand betwixt us and three points that might prove terribly handy in the months to
follow.

Pat Nevin is featured on the Official Chelsea Website talking tactics and it's a really good read
and raises plenty of questions. I am not going to paste all of it in here, just the important part
I want to focus on.
When asked about the way we have been playing and the international break, Nevin believes that AVB
has using trial and error up till now, but when the players come back this week, we could see a
different Chelsea side prepared to take plenty of risks to be successful.
Transfermarkt has done a wonderful job of breaking down the stats from the summer's biggest
spenders even further, while nominating the biggest spenders and biggest receivers as well.
Who had the Saudi League in the top baker's dozen? Not I.
And well done to Atletico for being so economically fruitful, if they did use the bulk of that
on Falcao, which seems excessive, good though he may be, but furthermore, does this account for the
waste that will be Diego's wages?
As I sit here watching Sky Sports News tediously round up a number of what will probably end up
being completely insignificant transfers, I can't help but think of the deals being rushed through
on the continent which could have a far greater impact on the global game.
Looking beyond the narrow gaze of our national mainstream media, I have highlighted three
continental transfers were noting and as intriguing as anything likely to happen involving any
Premier League club tonight.
After already capturing the Spanish SuperCopa, defending UEFA Champions League winner FC Barcelona
goes after its second piece of silverware on the young season when it takes on defending UEFA
Europa League winner FC Porto in the UEFA SuperCup in Monaco (2:45 p.m., Fox Soccer Channel).
40 millones de euros es demasiado para un equipo y para el
Atlético de Madrid que
vive hipotecado desde que reina la familia
Gil. Tampoco es cuestión de tirar la casa por la
ventana si sólo juegas la
Europa League y no la
Champions. Para luego en
Liga quedarte en la mitad de la tabla.
Here is the closest hint that OPORTO & Colombian International player FALCAO is about to land at
ATLETICO DE MADRID. The Portuguese Club which finances itself via the Portugal Stock Exchange has
just informed the local financial authorities that they have a 45M€ offer from Atletico for
Falcao - & here is the surprise - along with his fellow team-mate midfielder MICAEL.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp is targeting multiple signings after conceding that
Luka Modric's long-drawn transfer saga could soon be concluded.
Modric has drawn strong interest from Chelsea throughout the summer and the lure of joining a
bigger club has already proved to be a major distraction for the Croatian.
Atletico Madrid have confirmed their interest in Porto striker Falcao and acknowledged the deal
could lead to Diego Forlan's departure.
Things are "speeding" up on the transfer front as the 31st of August ( & Europa /Champions League
inscriptions) deadline nears for Spanish Football Clubs. One of those, ATLETICO DE MADRID, has an
ambitious plan: to sign two star forwards to replace Sergio Aguero & Diego Forlan. More on the last
latter on.
Andre Villas- Boas GQ style and football IQ did not impress Stoke
One of the most anticipated coaching debut's this season ended on a disappointing note as Andre
Villas- Boas a one time Mourinho protege could not get his side to crack open Stoke's doughty
defense.
Chelsea began with Fernando Torres declared match fit after surviving a concussion scare in the
match against Italy but despite the striker looking lively, he and Salomon Kalou were unable to
finish.
Another Disappointing Season For Tottenham? - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Tottenham managed to reach the quarterfinals in their debut run in the UEFA Champions League
last season but they will have to do with Europa League this season.
Spurs have a very good team but this transfer window should have been used to add some depth to
the squad.
Hang on a minute Kickettes is that Zlatan Ibrahimovic's beard that Porto striker Falcao has just
retrieved from the ocean floor on Miami Beach?
Nope, Zlats still has his. Whew.
It must belong to Fabio Quagliarella then. He's been looking pretty clean shaven in that area
lately.
Paul Kennedy of Soccer America recaps why Uruguay are the deserving champions of the 2011 Copa
America.
While Brazil and Argentina couldn't get past the quarterfinals -- the same stage at which they fell
at last year's World Cup -- Uruguay confirmed its status as the best team in South America with a
thoroughly deserved 3-0 win over Paraguay in the 2011 Copa America final.
