Atletico dropping points in there first game is near suicidal..... Not saying that they are out of the race but this will definitely affect them in the long run.

Not really, the other two contenders were at home while Atleti were away. Could reverse itself in the next couple weeks.

Are you serious?

While it is not good for any of the top 3 to drop points in their first game, but come on, this is the first game of the season after all, waaaayyyy to early to say this. 2-point difference at this point is nothing.

But then again Barca could go on a winning streak and so could Madrid, that will put more pressure on Atletico even more seeing that they face Real Madrid in September.

Let's finish off Villarreal first. We've got to do better at these away games.

Real and their brass made sure Atletico is not winning this year with that asinine 8 game ban on Simeone.

Lol I wouldn't blame Burgos. The players on the field should have done their job. Atleti players were looking poor all by themselves and to be fair Rayo were looking dangerous. Still can't believe they dropped points. RM played like dog shit but at least won.

Atlético Madrid "will experience uncertainty until the market closes" on Monday "because currently, the club has spent more than" the amount permitted by the Spanish Football League (LFP), according to GOAL. An LFP regulation requires that "the annual sum spent on a roster" cannot exceed 70% of the club's revenue for that season. If Atlético is "unable to meet this requirement," it could face a sanction "ranging from a ban on signing players to possible relegation." To resolve the situation, "club execs are trying to trade various players to balance the accounts." Atlético is looking to sell Emiliano Insúa and Toby Alderweireld, and if a "good offer arrives" for Cristian Rodríguez, the club "will sell the Uruguayan as well." The club is permitted to spnd €50M ($66M) on its roster, but it currently has spent "closer to" €100M.

BS or not?
