Have you checked his streak in 20/21 which he fumbled the last 2 months?

We cross that bridge if we cross that bridge, but right now is team is top 3-5 in Europe on current form.

People including myself questioned him at the start of the season, he's since had something like a 15+ points swing to lead the table going into the winter break.

Nothing impressive in that streak mate.
He found it difficult and won only by 1 goal at home against likes of Alaves or Getafe

While, in the difficult games, against PSG and Barca AWAY
his game-plan was totally ANNIHILATED by both coaches and should have lost both with 4 goals difference based on chances

No respect for that kind of streak...

Let alone that before the streak, he was losing at home to Lille

I've never seen a poster like to use the word should have so much.

No respect for losing at home to lille, but big respect for losing at home to las Palmas and throwing away a 10+ advantage over Atleti?.

Well, yes, when your opponents missed 5 big chances and you made 0, you DESERVE To lose the game, and SHOULD have lost it.
Could not care less if they were lucky and ended up winning.
They should get 0 merit for that, and in all the games that are part of the 'streak' and were like that

Simeone started like that in 20-21:

Only to end up like that:

If were careful in that notorious home game against Granada the league would have been in the bag.

And Imagine that this season, there are far from the first half of 20-21:Atleti 24-25.png

Guess what will happen after January

This for Simeone's ability to maintain a lead in the table.

And BTW, back then, the lead was 10 and more than 10 pts at some point (in early January or so)
And back then, they were playing much better than they are now during their 'streak'
