Atlético Madrid

[Barcaman]

I should mention they have a kepper named Jan Oblak, who comes from my country Slovenia ;-)

Hey neighbour!
Yes, definitely.

Solid defense, whats the record in la liga for least conceded over a season?

I think Deportivo in 1993-1994 with 18 goals, followed by us last season with 19 goals.

They are playing ridiculously defensive this season, even against teams like Celta. They have 2 banks of 4 everytime the opposition tries to attack, making it impossible for them to score. Their attack is very efficient and their conversion rate in front of goal must be very high.

Simeone could really take them far this season, in both La Liga and CL. It will take a top notch performance from MSN to beat them the next time we meet (which isn't far away)

when is our game in hand on them?

 

[Barcaman]

End of January, I think.

question is if we fail to beat Atlético at home will people then seriously take them serious as a real threat to our title? would hate to see us get another draw

No transfers for two transfer windows. Same punishment as Real Madrid.

 

[barcafan161]

no outgoings now then

 

[Barcaman]

They'll be fine just like Real. Cholo has now 22 good players unlike 2014.

 

[El Flaco]

It comes in the least bad moment possible for Atleti.

- More than half of their players are 25 or younger.
- Atleti's squad is deep enough as they've backups for almost every position (expect LB).
- They can recall 9 players who are loaned out without violating the ban.

Having that said, it'll depend on how well Atleti can retain the players.
After all, it's just for 2 transfer windows.

I believe they have Siqueira though he has rarely played this season.

 

[Pejovski]

Why there are no tickets for Barcelona - Atletico Madrid on the offical page?
