You wouldn't believe it, would you? But, according to Argentina's coach Coco Basile, that's what Sergio Aguero is.

Dubious I hear you say, and I'd have to agree, but why did he say it?

Chile beat Argentina 1 v 0 last Wednesday evening at home in Santiago and at half time Basile was seen whispering to his assistant, Ribolzi, that 'Aguero was a disaster.' He obviously hasn't been watching La Liga. I don't know Kun played against Chile - and to be frank I'm glad Argentina lost-but it's a bit of a harsh comment to make about one of the most wanted players in La Liga this year.

Aguero played a full 90 minutes even though he's been struggling with an injury, which isn't going to help him in the Derby tonight against Real Madrid. Whether or not this comment made about Kun was true I'm sure it's not going to stop him playing on top form in the Derby.

Prediction for tonight's game, well, it's gonna be a cracker of a match, I have to say I'd like Atletico to win be a couple of goals, but I'm going for a draw or a close win for Atletico. If they're gonna have an impact on La Liga this year then they need to start tonight.

Well it's about time to find out. Tomorrow night, Atletico Madrid, continue their sprawl of tough games against Barcelona at Camp Nou in the 6th Jornada in La Liga. Atletico are seventh in the league and only one point behind Barca, who are fifth, so could jump over them with a victory tomorrow night.

But how possible is that going to be? Will it be a question of Messi or Kun smashing in the goals? Pep Guardiola, unbiased of course, thinks that although Kun is a star player Messi is a better one 'I'm still saying that Aguero is very good, but for me Messi is better.' Of course he's gonna say that, and maybe he's right, but in a couple of years time it will probably be a different story.

The point is though that tomorrow is the big show down.Pep is obviously aware of this and has admitted to telling Messi 'Not to try and win the game himself.' When asked if he knew what Messi thought of Kun he said 'I don't know if he has a personal reason to win the game, I only hope that we win because it would put us high dynamically.'

If you changed Messi for Kun, just for tomorrows match, then what would happen? Would Kun fit in with Eto and Inesta? Would Messi gel with Luis Garcia and Pongolle? Is there any point comparing the quality that the two have alongside them? Messi has far greater team mates, so does that mean that Kun is better after all?Yeah I know, too many questions, let's leave it to the professionals.

My prediction is 2 v 1 to Barca with Messi and Kun both scoring own goals. 

Luis Fabiano's beautifully placed free kick was the only goal needed for Sevilla to come away from Madrid an estatic bunch with three points to their name - Atletico 0 v Sevilla 1.

Jimenez has been under heavy critiscim recently and after tinight's brave display it should get the fans and press back on his side.

Atletico started the match a few key players short and it proved too much against a solid Sevilla defense. Atletico lack creativity as they failed to impress a home crowd as convincingly as they have recently; even Kun lack his magic tonight.

So is this the turning point for Atletico who now face a tough three matches against Barca, Madird and Villarreal, maybe they still aren't up to the standards of the top bunch.

Sevilla, on the other hand, will be extremely content with their display tonight and maybe Jimenez can get some sleep for a change.

Both teams are in Europe this week so keep your eyes out. La Liga is hotting up.

I'm obviusly not talking about the recent form of Atletico, they've started the year with more passion and strentgh than any other year, but no they start their run of Sevilla, Barca, Real Madrid and Villarreal and will be without a few of their key players.

Atleticos Options 

Sergio Aguero is fit, but Javier Aguirre, Manager of Atletico, has admitted he isn't 100% and could do with a rest, 'He's going to go out for the 90 minutes, but if there's a chance to give him a rest and change him then we will it all depends on how the game goes.' They'll definitely need to keep him fit because at the moment Atletico are without Heitinga, Simao, Forlán y Maniche. The question is do they have the squad expansive enough to get through these difficult moments?

Sevillas Options 

Sevilla, on the other hand, are without a few players but the key ones reamain intact, they'll be without Renato, Acosta, Escudé y Mosquera, but this shouldn't be a huge problem, they've still got Capel, Kanoute, Fabiano, and also new boy Chevaton who has made a decent impact so far.

Manolo Jimenez, manager for Sevilla, knows he's up against a grand team tonight in Madrid 'For me Atletico can challenge for all competitions, this is a game to get stuck in. We've got the capacity to harm them in their stadium and we need to demonstrate that we can fight as hard as them.'

When Juan de Ramos left Sevilla in the lurch last year and in stepped the 'B' team manager Jimenez, no one gave him the time of day and had written him off before he'd even stepped into the changing rooms. But I've got to say that he's got some cojones (balls); it's taken him a while to turn the team round but he's done it and shows his determination 'For this we always want to win, we weren't happy with a draw at Betis or Racing we want to win everything,' he said demonstrating a similar passion to their Director Del Nido. 

What's going to happen? 

Even though Atletico are at home I think they might come unstuck without their key players, it will be a close game but I think Sevilla might edge it by one goal or it will be a draw.

1 V 1 OR 2 V 1 to Sevilla.

Atletico's President, Enrique Cerezo, has hit back at rumors than Manchester City and Chelsea are after their top striker, Sergio Aguero, or Kun, by saying that 'Aguero wants to play for Atletico and live in Madrid.'

It's early days yet but when these rumors start they normally finish somewhere, weather (excuse the pun) there is sun or not, at the end of the day it’s football not a holiday destination, and besides with the money that the 'Arabs' have got then they'll be no surprise if they build an indoor heated stadium with palm trees and the works, I’m sure they can accommodate for all the family. 

If they can do it in American why can't they bring it to City?

Sevilla are fourth in the table after beating Espanyol 2 v 0 at home last night thanks to goals from Maresca (57) and Chevanton (86), but there were still moans from the crowd after a poor first half show. When Maresca scored he ran straight up to his manager / boss / lover, and dedicated the goal to him, how cute (afterwards apparently he had to wash the tears away)

Today Diego Capel said that the 'Mister' deserved the win 'We knew the importance of this game, especially after the derby, the person who most deserves the victory is the mister (governor) and we want to dedicate it to him, we know he's a strong man but we hope this helps him forget everything,' he added with a tear in his eye.

It was an important victory for Sevilla yesterday, probably the toughest so far and has boosted confidence among the team. Maybe if Jimenez had started with the same team as yesterday he would have got a better result against Betis. Maybe or maybe not; Betis put up a good fight yesterday against Barca to pull it back from 2 v 0 to 2 v 2 but they let it slip and lost 3 v 2 (despite a definite penalty that Sergio Garcia should have had). 

Unfortunately Sevilla's Columbian defender, Mosquera, sprained his ankle yesterday and will be out for about three weeks.Sevilla's next game is away to Atletico who won again yesterday 2 v 1 against Getafe in a Madrid derby.

After yesterday's game Jimenez should have won some faith back from his supporters, but how long will he keep it for? The Sevillianos are hard to please at times, trust me my girlfriend is one of them, only joking darling.

The news that new rich boys Manchester City are trying to buy Atletico's Sergio Aguero, Kun, has got the press talking over in Spain.

It's panic time for Atletico, they have started the season amazingly and don't need any hassle from the press, or hounding from City, about their whizz kid Argentinean striker.

Rumor has it that 60 million Euros have been offered for Kun, who has scored eight goals in the last four games, and is playing tonight in a Madrid derby against Getafe where representatives from City will be watching to see if he's really worth the price tag. 

About three days ago I wrote an article on Kun saying that he would be the new wonder boy and it's only been a week after the end of the transfer market and already he's getting hounded. Can't they wait a couple of months before we get started again?

Are Atletico a big enough club for the Argentinean wonder boy? Will he be gone in January? After Atletico take on Liverpool next month in the Champions League clash, all eyes will be on him. 

I don't know if Atletico have the capacity or capital to say no to 60 million Euros, but one things for sure City are on the prowl already and with Kun alongside Robinho and Jo there's gonna be trouble in the Prem.

Don't worry I'm not talking about my prediction for the final positions of La Liga this year (although it would be nice), I'm talking about the order of oppositions that teams have to face.

This would never happen in the Prem, could you imagine it? Every team has to play, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal in a row, no way jose! What do you think? Isn't it about time they changed this system, or if it is a fluke this year then maybe they should havethought about it? The Sesame gang say aren't happy with it.

Atletico smashed Recreativo 4 v 0 thanks to goals from Kun (7), Maniche (52) and two from Sinama (77,88) to put them back on track in La Liga.

Sergio Aguero, Kun, has now scored four goals in eight days, one against Valladolid, two against PSV and one yesterday to show that he's one of La Liga's most dangerous strikers. He also set up the second goal for Maniche and caused serious problems for Recre's defense. Kun left to a standing ovation as he was substituted in the 60th minute.

But if he continues like this then surely he's gonna get swamped with offers from outside La Liga; no doubt the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City, and Tottenham will be keeping an eye on him for when the transfer market opens again in January. Rumors has it that Maradona has already said he'll try and get him over to Inter next season, and rumor also has it that Kun likes to suck his thumb when he goes to bed with a nice hot cup of Chocolate; I don't know why anyone would think that though...

But was it really an impressive thrashing that the score reflects? Javier Aguirre, manager of Atletico, seems to think not; 'The victory wasn't as easy as it seemed, but we've got great strike force who are going to cause problems, but we can't commit errors in defense,' he said even though Atletico have kept three clean sheets in four games against Schalke, Malaga, and Recreativo. But overall the Mexican, Aguirre, was content with his team's performance; I should think so mate, 4 v 0 ain't a bad result now is it?

Atletico appear to have everything in order, their strike force has been phenomenal so far and new signings of Heitinga (Dutch) and Ujfalusi (Chec) now playing alongside Perea and Antonio Lopez make a solid defense. The question is will they be able to keep up these peformances when they play the tougher teams in La Liga and Champions? Next week they're at home to Getafe, who managed a draw with current leaders Espanyol 1 v 1 yesterday, but then they have the real test; Sevilla, Barca and Madrid in a row. Let's see how Kun and his boys shape up against those bad boys before we can consider a new challenger for the title, be nice though wouldn't it?

Atletico Madrid, or better known as rojiblanco (Redwhite) got off to a super start to their Champions League campaign by smashing PSV 3 v 0, away. Aguero, or better known as 'Kun', yet again, was a master and popped in two goals in the 9th and 36th minute while Maniche, or also known as 'Papa', got the third in the 54th minute.

To win away at PSV was the best possible start for the Redwhite's, who haven't been in the Champions League for some time. The only downside was that Forlan, who picked up a knock when he was at international duty for Uruguay, had to come off with a torn muscle and maybe out for three weeks to a month.

Manager Aguirre said that 'We're not completely happy thanks to Forlan's injury, he's been unlucky and we hope he'll be back soon.'

He better be back in a month or he'll miss out on Atletic's most testing challenge against Liverpool on 22nd of October. 

Come on Forlan, get shifty down the docs, you don't wanna get a beatin' from the Scousers.
