Community Shield 2009 Manchester United 2 Chelsea 2 (1-4 on penalties)

Disappointed at loss to Chelsea. Poor penalties taken by Giggs and especially Evra. Is one of those "my grandma can kick better than you" kind of penalty.

More interestingly, what I got out after watching the highlights of the match is the attitute of the Chelsea players.

Arrogance, selfish attitude is what I can see from the screen. Lampard's celebration after he scored the penalty, that was snobbish, absolutely unnecessary for this semi-friendly game. Drogba and Ballack both showed irritating attitudes as well. Normal I guess.

Maybe they are tired of losing all the time? Maybe they are tired of being hated as a team that is bought, not built? Whatever the case, I predict the Community Shield will be the only silverware they will have this season. Just didnt feel the cohesiveness of the team. Liverpool and Man Utd will remain as top challengers. But this year will be pretty interesting. Man Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal all had their teams weakened. Chelsea did not participate much in the transfer market, Man City bought big, Aston Villa, Everton all performed well in pre-season with a consistent team. It'll be interesting how they stack up this season.

Shall find out this weekend where the action all starts once again.

Meanwhile, njoy the highlights from the 2009 Community Shield.
