Atlético Madrid

[Porque]

Atleti traditionally always sign top forwards. It's just the midfield which is usually tosh apart from the era of Koke in his prime.

Betis are one of those teams that will make you look great. I want to see if Atleti can do this week in week out.

Cholo always plays like absolute dogshite, but in his defense, everytime they play great and outplay the opponent in a KO game, they go out. They only go through when they are shite and clinging for dear life with Oblak playing a blinder.

If you know you know I guess.

It's been said a milion times before but now I seriously think they have a good foundation and little seperates them from creating a top side, that would seriously challenge Real and Barça and also compete for the CL

What's probably needed at this point is a new manager. Simeone is clearly past it and has honestly developed a kind of cuck mentality at the club. He should go to Serie A where his playstyle would likely work. Said he would like Inter but don't think they have a reason to ship Chivu now

The sooner ATM sacks Simeone and bring in someone like Felipe Luis, the better for the club.

Outdated coach with outdated ideas ruining Argentine talents year after year.

WTF???

 

[Haraldinho]

They will finish 3rd anyway since september.

Rayo let them have the ball and they couldnt do much.

Betis did the same a week earlier.

Makes is more infuriating the way Barca played right into their hands.

 

[MonteCuler]

That was Atleti's 2nd team no?

Lookman, Alvarez, Griezmann, Koke, Llorente, Pubill, Hancko, Simeone all on the bench

Simeone is basically using La Liga to rest his players now since he is not winning it and likely ends up in CL spot since rest of the league is wank

 

[soul24rage]

Simeone has the players and there were signs vs Barca that he was getting there. He needs to play the following team consistently to get results.

----------------Alvarez
Lookman-------Almada--------Simeone
-------------Koke-----Llorente
Ruggeri---Hanco------Pubill----Molina
------------------Musso

Barrios is their best midfielder

I rate Llorente higher for the similar role that he plays.

Koke is needed for the passing quality.

 

[jairzinho]

How the hell did Athleti beat us?

 

[jamrock]

I wonder who they will move for to coach the team in the summer, emery should definitely be top of that list or maybe they want the Argentina coach, the timing would make sense.

Llorente has been better RB or RW for Atleti or even at AM at one point better than when been deeper to date.

Think for him need his energy in Simeone likes to tie down his two deeper midfielders so feels like a bit of a waste.

Gallardo?

That said I think it's more likely Cholo will still be there for 5 or 10 more years than leave this summer.

Gallardo?

scaloni

Gallardo time has passed, isn't he in the middle east?.
