The Community Shield, opens tomorrow Sunday, the domestic season with a clash between Chelsea, and his bodyguard, Manchester United, two teams seeking their marks after a disappointing World Cup for some of his players.
When is just one week before the start of the Premier League betting , the party which takes place at Wembley Stadium will reveal the level of two of the greats of English football, which struggled last season to finish for the title, which was Chelsea one point lead.
The meeting will also be the chance to see some of the World Cup, as Wayne Rooney or Nicolas Anelka, who had many difficulties with their teams during the tournament in South Africa.
Rooney, Manchester United, did not score a goal while Anelka France staged a scandal that prompted his expulsion before the end, after the press reported that he had seriously insulted the then coach, Raymond Domenech.
Chelsea comes to this "Super" with one of the most negative pre-season balances in recent years (one win and three losses in four friendly matches), with the team with physical disabilities and a game that lacked fluidity.

The star wide receiver Andre Johnson received a contract extension for two more years and $ 38.5 million from the Houston Texans with whom will be linked at least until the 2016 betting season.
Adding the five-year, $ 35 million yet to be fulfilled in his original contract, the entire agreement for the services of receptor four-time Pro Bowl for the following seven seasons in Houston will pay $ 73.5 million, ie an average of $ 10.5 million per betting season.
The 29-year-old Johnson had five years left on his old contract, but told McNair and Smith earlier this year that he wanted a new deal. The soft-spoken receiver caused a stir when he skipped three voluntary workouts in May and brought his desire for a new contract to light.
But his absence, and the media attention it drew, made Johnson uneasy and he arrived on time to training camp, hoping that the ongoing negotiations wouldn't become a distraction.
"It is important to us that Andre has a home and that is with the Texans," said Bob McNair, owner of the team.

The betting world knows that if the Detroit Tigers want to revive their chances at the AL Central pennant, they need to start by winning in this series with the White Sox. While the cities of Detroit and Chicago start to look towards NFL betting, their baseball teams are locked in one of the best pennant chases in the major leagues.
Right now the Chicago White Sox lead the Minnesota Twins by a game and a half and the Detroit Tigers by seven games in the AL Central. If you were betting on college football, you may bet against a team in the Tigers’ situation. They trail the division leader by seven games, and the Tigers have only won three of their last 10 games. But the Tigers are capable of playing good baseball, and if they can start to pull themselves together now then they can make a run for the pennant. The Tigers have more of a chance of catching the White Sox for the AL Central pennant than they do in catching the Yankees for the AL wild card.
The White Sox have won seven of their last 10 games, and they are in a fierce battle with the Minnesota Twins for the AL Central pennant. The Twins have won eight of their last 10 games, and they continue to put the pressure on the Sox.
