Atlético Madrid

This is what I was sayin.. fuck .
Technically, Malaga players are so poor...
And now, they're gonna park the bus.

Atletico 1-0

Nice jinx

I think I'll stop coming to say things earlier because most of the time they end up not happening

Costa pulled a Messi there

 

[BerkeleyBernie]

Was looking unlikely for either team to score, both impotent. Costa created that entirely by himself.

I guess its up to us to lay them a beating, who would have known this Atletico team was gonna be in 2nd place and Madrid 3rd.

Beating them at their own home will be even more sweet.

 

[Barcaman]

I guess I also tuned in late because I haven't seen Atletico play that well.
It was a lucky goal and then they park the bus.

Malaga dive and foul so much. Disgusting play from them at times and the ref is enabling it.

 

[Cule4life]

Diving in front of the linesman. Smart!!!

 

[Barcaman]

What Welligton did there was pathetic

Yeah they haven't played all that well in attack today. Then again, Malaga are playing a 5-4-1 and Willy has stopped a few sure goal chances. I think Barca have a definite edge against Atleti though, if Messi starts.

They will face Osasuna away, Athletic away, Valencia away and Barcelona away in the second half of the seasons. All games where points will likely be dropped.

In comparison, Barcelona have Madrid away, Villarreal away and Sevilla away.

 

[The Observer]

Diego Simeone on our victory over Elche:

"We saw the reality on television. After two minutes, Barca have a shot on goal, after seven a goal, after 14 minutes it's 2-0... I turned off the television for something else. There was no game."

"It took them 15 minutes to do what we did in 78, with Neymar resting, Messi recovering, without Busquets..."

At least someone appreciating our greatness.

El Cholo Simeone

 

[DonAK]

Mindgames. Giving his team the underdogs tag.

 

[JamDav1982]

Not sure if he is complementing Barca or stating how boring he finds the league!

He has said that in the past.

This is the first time this season I'm genuinely worried going into a match, against R.Madrid I was not worried in the slightest. Hope Valencia tires them out, then again they'll have an extra day's rest. I think I'll take a draw, I'll be ecstatic with a win of any kind. I don't want us to trash them funnily enough, because:

1. I don't want us to peak early, i'll prefer such a result against City, after which we bulldoze every team on our way.
2. I really want them to finish above those R.Madrid cunts, a demoralizing loss may halt their momentum.
